"We're in the midst of a political season that's enough to make even the most hopeful spirits surrender to cynicism. I've always considered WONDER to be one of the most effective antidotes to cynicism. So today, do something that inspires wonder in your life..."

~Rachel Held Evans

My new goal... do something/look for something once a day that inspires "aww" in my life.  Seriously, it won't take much.  Some days just the smell of my pencil or a handful of popcorn or my cat eyeing a squirrel through the back window... even vacuuming... makes me smile.

Today...

Sunset over Sierra Nevada Mountain Range... FOR Sierra <3 How fragile life is, how certain death ... Every thoughtful person has asked himself the question best phrased by Job of old: "If a man die, shall he live again?" Try as we might to put the question out of our thoughts, it always returns. Death comes to all mankind. It comes to the aged as they walk on faltering feet. Its summons is heard by those who have scarcely reached midway in life's journey. At times it hushes the laughter of little children. ... We do not know when we will be required to leave this mortal existence. And so I ask, "What are we doing with today?" ~Thomas S. Monson~
