A picture a Day to Keep the Inspiration Today.



There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle; you can live as if everything is a miracle.” - Albert Einstein 
     I want this quote to grace my experiences as I start the 365 challenge. What is that, you ask? Ah, well, it is a project where one takes a picture each day for an entire year! It isn't seen as a challenge to me, per se. This is solely due to the fact that I take many a picture, already! However, now it will be my duty to take at least 1 picture, to not only keep track of my life on a daily basis, but to (drum roll please) remain inspired!!


     You could sign up to be apart of the 365 day project, by going on their website: http://365project.org/
However, I figured I can just participate via facebook and have my own 365 day album. I'm still indecisive on posting a daily blog, replicating my 365 project for blogger-land...I think that may be an over-ambitious route.
But I know, through it all, I also want to take some artsy fartsy snap shots, focusing on quality over quantity!


So, another cheers, for remaining inspired and seeing each and every day as its own special miracle.
I'd like to quietly cease my sloshing-over thoughts, for now, with another awesome quote I discovered. It will help me find those miracles in the tiniest of crevices, methinks.  


"The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.” 
- Charles R. Swindoll

  1. I really love that second quote! and good luck with 365, i'm sure you'll have no problem--in the early days of my project you were my role-model to whip out the camera in different situations
