Yesterday I went for a beautiful hike on Rabbit Mountain with a new friend I met while taking pictures on the street in Lyons. Since the flood, people are engaging with others more readily, and we began on conversation that has wanted to continue. One of the themes that came up again for me is about perspective and focus. We talked about wanting to be creative, and make a difference in the world, yet lamenting the challenges and unfairness inherent in our society. As we were talking we suddenly stopped and looked out across the valley. In this moment I was reminded that we actually have a choice in each moment – focus on what is wrong, or see the beauty. In that moment we focused on the beauty.

“Good morning my love. This is a theme that everyone is facing now. In this world you have free will and what you have free will over is what you give your attention to, and what you do with it. Many people don’t feel they have a choice. But when you truly step into taking responsibility for your life, you realize that it is all your choice. I’m not talking about the flood being your choice (directly), but how you think about it, and what you do in reaction or response to it, is up to you. It is important to take it all in and be with it, and sometimes you just have to stop and look around and remember that this life is beautiful!
Love,
God”
