Almost each morning I peruse the internet and read a few blogs enjoying the pics and projects that many of these blogs post.  I do enjoy these types of blogs but mostly they give off the idea that
they have it altogether and life is neat and tidy.  I'm not trying to be critical, it's just that it doesn't give a full picture of how messy life really is.  Maybe we don't want to see that but, sometimes we need to.

Life is beautiful, ugly, messy, hard, sad, and totally unpredictable.  Life is sometimes, well mostly all the time, out of our control.  Maybe we don't want to see the messy hard pics of real life, maybe we are comforted by neat, clean, pretty pics.  What I do know is that sometimes I need to see that behind the perfect there are equally and usually more imperfect, difficult struggles.  I want to see how you struggled and cheer you on when you conquered.  These are the real life things that inspire me.

Maybe I should begin this too...
