Simple Treasures

For a while now, I've wanted to start a new blog--one where I could post more from "Sara's Perspective" rather than just the "Mommy Perspective." The latter is what is now mainly portrayed on my original blog, Raising My Ebenezer.

So what makes this blog different from that one?

I wanted a place where I could write about the simple treasures in my life, someplace that, through the means of creating, I was discovering.

The older I get, the more I realize how essential the basics are in life and that just because something is basic, doesn't mean that it is sub-par or unimportant. How could Beethoven compose a symphony without an understanding of clefs or time signatures? How could Shakespeare write his plays without knowing how to write his letters? How could Einstein theorize about spacetime without first comprehending that 2 + 2 = 4?

And so life goes...

I see this evolution of knowledge and awareness in the ebb and flow of the day-to-day; not only in myself, but in those around me. And, as a new mom, this is highlighted in the development of my child.

It is humbling; it is awe-inspiring; but most of all, it changes me...you...all of us.

So, enough of my waxing didactic. I just hope you find some inspiration along the way with me, and that you enjoy the ride as well!
