our job to help people who can't help themselves and that even though we may think our contribution is small, we are still helping to change the world. I saw God in Father Izzy as he embraced me with the hug of a long lost best friend and claimed he wouldn't ever let me go. I saw God in little Amelia as her and her radiant smile entered graciously back into my heart and as she gave my the best present I've ever received, a shirt with Pope Francis's beautiful face on it. She brought so much joy to me through the simple act of love as she thought of me when she went to Rome. I saw God in the beautiful sunset that he left across the sky as a reminder that life is short but the blessings we receive are endless. He was so ever present in my day and I am so thankful I let him be. Nothing can compare to the joy you feel when you are content and know that this life is good and that we are far more blessed than we'd like to acknowledge. God gave us this crazy, beautiful life and told us to go out and live a good story. I can only hope that I'm living these days out to their fullest, surrounded with a beautiful family who loves me dearly, my faith to get me through the good and the bad times, and the beautiful sky to remind me how beautiful this life really is.

Living A Good Story
