Perspectives and Dewitt Jones

I recently saw a video at work from Dewitt Jones. He is a photographer for the National Geographic. His pictures are really amazing and beautiful, but the message in his video is that we can all change our perspectives and look at life with new eyes, seeing the possibilities and the beauty. What an amazing vision! This is the kind of vision that can change lives, can bring people out of the darkness, lift up people from the rubbish and dirt of everyday existence and into the journey of life. His work is beautiful, but his life's philosophy is so inspiring!

"Life doesn't make appointments, it just comes at you", - Dewitt Jones

He looks for the extraordinary in everyday life. He looks for what is possible, he believes that the beauty will be there for him, and so he finds it. If we could all look with new eyes at our lives, look for the inspiration, look for the beauty, we would find our passion and our lives would be enriched. If we could believe, then we would see.

This message really speaks to me, especially this time of year. The time to be Thankful and Grateful. I have so many things to be grateful for! This has been a time of learning and healing for me, and I am amazed at the possibilities that await me!
