LOVE update

So. As some of you may have realized, i didn't exactly keep up with my 30 day love challenge. However, that's not completely true...I came to terms with something about myself that I always knew, but decided I now appreciate.

I always have wished that I was better about taking pictures of events, friends, whatever. But something else I realized this month, is that the reason I dont take a lot of pictures is because I get so enveloped in what I am doing, that I dont want to stop to take a picture. a lot of time, i feel that i am ruining a moment by asking people to stop what they are doing to smile for the camera. i also realize that's not the only way to capture a moment, but for me, i'm not a photographer. i love admiring other people's work, but i dont take pictures. i am much more of a rememberer without the pictures.

so as december was happening, i was keeping my eyes peeled for different Love pictures or situations, and i saw tons of them! I just didnt have the time to sit down and write about it. I saw people helping each other, I saw the word Love spray painted or Love stickers stuck in random places. And i felt TONS of love from my students around the holidays especially. I had a handful of students give me PRESENTS! I mean, the fact that they think of me outside of coming to class was like the most amazing love ever!

So to sum up, there is love everywhere, every day as long as you are open to receiving it. it doesnt need to be captured in a picture, but in your heart, so you can then pay it forward :)

Happy new year to anyone who reads this blog, and hopefully i'll be a little better about regular posts!

Light and Love,
Sarah Pearl
