Obliged

Back to exercising and jogging through the Pearl District... Downtown Portland has never looked beautiful. 

Five things I'm thankful for:

  • To be able to enjoy the scene of family/friends enjoying the outdoors. Aside from smiles, the sound of laughter & wind around me make a beautiful melody

  • The person I've become through challenges across the years. Knowing my Father in heaven always with me and having my back.

  • The friendships accrued and being social, even when I'm most tired. U never know who you can lift up by a simple acknowledgment.

  • In the smallest things, God is there. I hear Him. He doesn't ever look at my shame. He Sees me perfect form and shape. He looks at me with love-developing a stronger relationship.

  • The school/university I enrolled in. 10 years since I've touch a classroom, I'm glad to be pursuing a career I can be useful and do Gods work.
