You always have something that relates directly to my life and often more than not its like when I need it! I have been accessing a few important relationships in my life, a few people that are very negative and always bringing down situations or places we are around 🙁 It will be so hard though for sure.
Ive also been using flylady.net to do the simple living, try the simple and clean living I should say. Anyways, Ive only gotten through her first lesson, shining the kitchen sink lol but hey, it looks good! I’ve just been setting small goals each day and working towards bigger ones.
The point you made about the gear, totally agree. Ive always felt behind in gear wise. Then you did that shot with the blog post that was same shot 2 way different cameras and that was amazing!
Be Blessed Brooke

so, this is pretty much summing up the weekend i took out to PA. I felt like it was important to jump on an opportunity to create with friends before winter comes. We are not promised tomorrow so I want to live life as full as I can meeting people all over to inspire, encourage and aspire. I’ve realized that things are changing…and it has to be ok to say no…and it has to be ok to let people leave my life that just won’t be there where I’m going. Herez to step by step walking….let’s go!!!!!

There are people who follow and support me in my path of life. They do not carry me in their arms when I fall, but give me strength, with their heart and gaze or simple words, to get up and make my path. Yes! These are the people that we must have around us. Even, if they are miles away from me, as you Brooke. To them, I say that the bread feed my body, but they are who nourishes my soul. And when my soul is well, is synonymous that I’m happy. So I give them a lot of value and I try to returned to them the same way. I came to realize that these people have a way of being in life very similar to mine and so it makes perfect sense when you say: “We must all learn what kind of people we are first, and then find others who will support that.” As for the places and things, I totally agree with you.

In reply to Lia.

That’d be brilliant! 😀
You’d definitely love it here. So many forests creeks, I find new places everyday.
Let me know when you find yourself close to Austria.
(America is a little expensive for me)

Love this Brooke. When I think about these things I think they are so simple, yet I spent years not evaluating these things in my life. It is so easy to forget that your life is like a painting. You don’t just pour paint on the canvas and hope it turns out. You have to create it with love and care. Now that I do life is much more beautiful, inspiring and happy. Thanks for the post Brooke <3

Thanks, that was exactly what I needed. I am glad you talked about place. Especially the question of "if where we are is where we need to be" In about two months I will be spending two full years in Uruguay serving the people. I am absolutely terrified but also excited. (I mean, I don’t know a lick of Spanish) Now, to take that step to go was saying yes to the question "is that where I truly need to be" I had to sit and ponder that for quite some time. I finally came to the conclusion that that is where I needed to be at this time in my life. Thanks again, that was super awesome
