Today I will choose joy.

The last time that I uploaded anything to this blog was in January. That means that I haven't written anything new in almost 10 months - how embarrassing!

If you follow my photography page on Facebook you know that I've been struggling hardcore with inspiration and finding my creativity. This last year has been really hard for me and while it's been full of really great things it has also been full of some stuff that's been really hard. For a long time I think I chose to let myself focus on the bad and get trapped by it - I let myself feel overwhelmed and stuck instead of turning to my Heavenly Father who wants to walk beside me. 

The first day of Fall was last week and with a new season I feel a breath of fresh air coming. I'm probably still going to really suck at trusting God sometimes. I'm probably going to still feel a lack of creativity. Life is probably still going to be really hard sometimes. The difference today is that today I choose to focus on the good and let me creativity flow from there. I want to turn my eyes towards the blessings that God has given me and I will choose to be thankful for this crazy, stressful, wonderful life. I will choose to hope. Today is the day that I will choose joy.
