I plan to take my camera everywhere and take a lot more pictures.
I already have a wild passion for capturing moments and taking photos of people, but I have barely scratched the surface. I want to carry my big camera around more often, instead of simply using my cell phone. I want to capture the beauty in the mundane, and capture clearly the smiles of my loved ones.
I plan to go on more walks with my people.
Especially with the weather cooling off, I have found this fondness for walking. With my husband around our neighborhood, with my mom around our church campus, with my friends around a local park — super fun to catch up and also get our heart rates up.
I plan to journal every day.
Whether it’s two lines or two pages, I want to give myself the space to write and think. Not type, but write. Doodle.
I plan to love my body better.
I inherited dry skin, and it get 5x times dryer in the cooler weather. So I plan to moisturize, moisturize, moisturize. I also have this bad habit of never taking my makeup off. I don’t wear a ton of it, but it can’t be good for my skin. I also plan on combatting my sluggish feeling of late by saying no to sugar and processed foods for a little while. Here’s an article to back that up.
I plan to stop looking at a screen at least 30 minutes before I go to sleep.
I think it’s a proven fact, but the brightness of a screen cannot help my brain get ready for a good REM cycle, right? It’ll be tough for me, if I’m honest, but I think good for me.
I plan to listen to the Bible more often.
I have only done it occasionally, but the past few times I’ve been driving and listening to it, it took on a different meaning to me somehow. Is that weird? Possibly. Oh well, I’m going to roll with it. Let the stories of Jesus and people like Moses, and the beautiful Truth of the Psalms or a book like Ephesians wash over me like a river of light.
Seems like a lot of things, but they are each changes I can easily make, if I make up my mind.
“What matters is not what I have been, but what God is making of me. When I realized, I began to feel secure in God’s work in my life. I do not know future, but I know God. I know that He will conform me to the image of Christ in particular ways so that Christ will be glorified and my service for Him will be complete.” T.W. Hunt
I love that photo, it’s so cute! I’m so excited we are heading into summer down here because my goodness I have had such dry skin for about 6 months now!
But then again I’m gonna have to be slathering on the sunblock 24/7.
I love this so so much! Cheers to living more fully!
Beautiful! I love everything you plan to do to live more fully. Taking pictures is one of my favorite ways to do, for me, it makes the moment even more special. And I love having pictures all around our home.
