Through These Eyes


On a journey in life, you can see the unique world the lord has given us. When we walk through every day on this planet, we miss the fine art of nature in our footsteps. There are days we miss the flowers, trees, and the beautiful birds. To be in this world and to miss the natural wonders, you have not lived life to the fullest. In order to see the world that we live in we must travel. But I am not talking about just traveling to the grocery store. I am talking about traveling to other cities, states, and countries. Everyone has a journey waiting for them around the next bend.

Our journey will be filled with wonder as you experience the lower 48 states. You will be able to take that trip you have been putting off for the past few years. You will feel the breeze in your hair, touch the floury sand, and listen to the ocean whisper. There are no limits to the mind. Close your eyes and envision the different locations we are about to visit. When you see the wake of the natural disasters that encompass our magnificent land it opens your eyes. The idea that mere days ago while driving across Texas, the flood devastation seen can not be measured by the eye, only by the mind.  The businesses overwhelmed with water, the ceiling a foot from its grasp. The locals in air boats investigating their fields of hay in feet of water. Then the beauty brought by 2 amazing rainbows gives hope to the devastated community.  But further west is California, which is overwhelmed by an excessive drought. You don't understand the world around you until you travel outside your city.
