Life is beautiful.

I say it often.

Sometimes, like I'm trying to convince myself.

But really life is quite beautiful.

and this spring - I have noticed so much of that beauty.

The back of the vine covered barn in the sun after the storm.

Just look at that golden light.

Storm clouds loom and I feel like I am being hammered at times lately.

but look - the sun remains.

I love that I caught this picture of the storm front. 

I've been a little out of whack --- but I'll be back to my old self soon.
