Today I took a walk on the beach…enjoyed the solitude…
“In a culture where busyness is a fetish and stillness is lazyness, rest is sloth. But without rest, we miss the rest of God: the rest he invites us to enter more fully so that we might know him more deeply. ‘Be still and know that I am God.’ Some knowing is never pursued, only received. And for that, you need to be still.” Mark Buchanan, The Rest of God: Restoring Your Soul by Restoring Sabbath
Hi there! In Baz Luhrmann’s epic, Australia, the little boy Nullah says at the movie’s end, “that’s why we tell…the stories…so they know they are belonging to us.”
Now, you’re here because you have a story to be told. Are you getting married? Having a baby? Celebrating a friendship or family? All of these are stories and theses stories tell of your “belongingness”…of your belonging to a larger story…a story that matters…a story that connects you with people you love and want to remember… and to people who love you and want to remember you.
Your story matters. And I so love a good story. That’s what this site is about.
@Andy – thanks for visiting! I guess the seagull was enjoying his “alone time” as well
@Doodah – thank you! It was a wonderful and refreshing time. You encouraged that!
Beautiful photo – very warm and peaceful. And, of course, I love the quote.
Glad you got some sabbath in. 
Even the gull looks relaxed!
