Soar with the Eagles

Are you a chicken or an eagle?Have you ever seen an eagle soaring through the sky, high above the tree tops, so fearlessly, like all is well and life is great?

I will continue to pray and trust that my Father will give me direction because at times I feel like a swaying ship in the wind of life. I got home as quickly as I could this evening just to "play" with makeup and create a look. For me, lighter colors pop more in the daytime so I went for one of my favorite colors- GREEN which would show more in the night. Green symbolizes so many different things- peace, calmness, regeneration, nature, unfortunately...
