I didn’t want to dwell on the bad news again today, so I felt I needed to talk about something beautiful. One of the most beautiful places in the world for me is the North Shore. I love sitting on Lake Superior and watching the waves crash into land, and the boats going in and out of the harbor. I’m sure it’s similar to what people who live oceanside experience. I love staying right in Canal Park so that I can get up early in the morning and see the beautiful sunrise over the water.

Today I’m sharing a photo from a few years ago that I took on one of those mornings. I remember sitting outside the hotel and just feeling completely relaxed as I watched the new day begin. There’s something ‘right’ in the world when you can experience beauty like this, and so today I’m sharing that photo.

Despite all that is wrong in the world, there is beauty in the planet we’ve been given. I know we’re just a speck in the grand universe, but that simply means we need to appreciate the amazing things around us while we can. Today is about remembering that everything will be OK, and the world is an amazing place.
