While at home, I finished working my way through the bundle of letters that my grandma saved from her correspondence with my grandfather. While the letters are not too full of meaningful information, my grandpa, Harvey, did include this dried tiger lily. After 87 years the lily is still intact. It was so beautiful.
I'm learning how important it is to document your life, may that be in writing or pictures, stories are important. Seasons of life are important and show how people change and grow. I am starting my final year of college and I am amazed at how much I have changed in these past few years. As I look back at past posts or read through old journals of mine, I am beginning to realize the seasons God has taken me through to create in me His purposes for my life. I love the concept of having purpose in life and that God has a calling on every person and even though those callings may change, he is constantly shaping you for the next thing. That is why stories are important. Most times we do not notice or remember where we started. Instead we should be mindful in order to continue moving forward in each new season of life. That is all.
