Each day, it is easy to lose sight of why we should be thankful and grateful for what we do have, as it is easy perhaps to become jaded about about what we don't. Life is and can be too short. We see it all too often. One passes and leaves behind a family or loved one and yet didn't take the opportunity to say the things that mattered, or to spend the quality time with them they should have, or they simply spent too much time worrying about things that really don't matter instead of focusing on what truly does. Each day, I try to look at life in a positive and invigorating new light...a breath of fresh air...a breath of life. I have many things to look forward to and for. I have so much to be thankful for in my past. I am blessed and fortunate. I put forth my passion and creative energy into my work and my life. I post these dishes in honor of my blessings. Just breathe...
