I recently read a quote that hit pretty close to home…"Sunshine all the time makes a desert." As much as we would like to avoid hard times and just have sunshine and happiness all of the time life just doesn't work that way. I always remind myself that in order to appreciate the good times you have to let bad times hit you, often like a ton of bricks. You build a certain armor….much like this vintage moto jacket has become my outer armor when I'm not quite feeling like myself. I throw this on and immediately feel a little stronger. I'm still working on the inner armor……but nothing comes over night right?

"If you're ever gona find a silver lining, its got to be a cloudy day…..If you want to fill your bottle up with lightning, you're gona have to stand in the rain." Dancing in the rain right now…..but that's ok…..because I have faith I will be filling my bottle up with lightning one day.
