I need a title...

Lately it seems like I look around and see nothing but heartaches, challenges, and difficulties all over!  Doom and gloom style.  I get the sense these days that my "who I am when no one looks" person is delving more and more into negativity...  Uh oh!  

What?!

I'm an optimist though!  This down and out aspect to my life is unwanted...except that it helps me grow.  Rats, there's that optimism coming through again!

I still see beauty in life.  I can still appreciate the creativity in things I see and know gladness that I experience God-given pleasure.  I know that at the core of everything God is still the King of the Universe and in control.  In the chaos God is still there.  

Is it just me, or am I on a theme these past few weeks?!  I'm ready to have different thoughts that I blog about...  Maybe it's time to pay closer attention to those creative, light-hearted things I come across.  :)

Something to work on-and post!

(And maybe it'll even be something with a picture!)
