when i look into [Y]our eyes i see a better part of me



Good afternoon my lovelies. It's a gorgeous day out, and even though I can only enjoy the sunshine from the confines of my room, it's still nice to know that summer is just around the corner. When God created the earth and saw that "it was good," He was clearly right. I may be biased, but there's a reason why Vancouver is consistently ranked as one of the most livable cities. It really is gorgeous here. Although it's not as exciting as some of the big metropolitan cities, I love just sitting and enjoying the view. Sometimes, we're so caught up with the immediate issues we're dealing with that we forget that there's a whole world out there to explore and a God behind us that no other force can reckon with. When I look up at the ocean-blue sky and the majestic mountains, I know that I believe in something way beyond myself. Sometimes, I get so caught up that I forget.
I was reading Soul Cravings the other day, and it talks about how we crave a lot of things like destiny, meaning and intimacy. I see it all around me and I too crave that. Everyone craves it. It's so easy to try and fill that emptiness with things that the world tells us we need. Those things only temporarily satisfy. At the end of the day, you're left wondering if there's something more.
Well, let me tell you, there is.
For all of you stressing about exams, stay alive.

Love you,

tiff
