Thoughts

Wisdom begins in wonder. - Socrates

Your life is what your thoughts make it. Marcus Aurelius

These two quotes were on my Quote of the Day widget this week. I love them because they directly relate to my purpose in writing this blog. I do long for wisdom, and this blog is an exercise in looking for the beauty in each day and trying to recognize things that are special, unique, or beautiful in each day. Thinking about these things will create a heart that meditates on the beauty in life, which leads to wisdom.

Also, I think a lot of life is defined by what our thoughts make it. One person may live in a lonely world while another lives in a very full world. I have experienced both, and I recognize the power my thoughts have in determining my actions, which help determine my community, which helps determine my support system and interactions.
