Keep your eyes open

I have mentioned before about being attentive, keeping your eyes open to opportunities, and trying to find good in every situation. For those of you who have just begun following my blog, or even those who have followed me for some time... go back and read this blog from china. It will express my thoughts on this in depth.

I believe that God will give you opportunities, and you have to be very conscious and aware of to know when one has been presented to you. I am currently down in Cabo San Lucas again with my dad. I needed to get away and have some peace and relaxation to get my thoughts back in order. On my flight down here, I could've been negatively focused on the seat I was in... but instead I found myself with a great opportunity.. all because I kept my eyes and mind open.  A couple of aisles behind me sat a fantastic couple and the most adorable little girl. The sheer joy the came from this little girl made my flight more pleasant. I ended up booking a family photo session with this family in Cabo. I was so thrilled, as this is something I have thought about for my past two trips down here. I ended up shooting them yesterday and it was a blast. They are a great couple and I know I will be seeing more of them as they are in Minneapolis as well!

So... keep your eyes open and don't let your frustrations get in the way of opportunities.

Unfortunately, I forgot my card reader at home.. so I haven't been able to download any of my shots from this trip.. so I will share a few from the first trip down here last July.
