In the thick of adversity, one finds what matters, what uplifts and brings us to a place of clarity that eases the way forward. This profundity sheds light upon our darkest times, allowing us to see through the fog of mind and emotion, smoothing the truths of reality so that we may best move on. It is through times of hardships that we find who we are, where we see our strengths and better our weaknesses. To be still within the midst of beauty, be it nature, words or the hand created, provides us with the deepest opportunities of respite and resolve: pulling deep the intuitive universe within.

What matters is within our attention, despite the whirling that may surround us. What matters is what we feel, that matters, what we hold onto and perpetuate in our minds and days of doing. This is not a difficult task, it is held within us, our ability to reason, to see beauty within the ugly, to try and start again. Within our difficulties are the truest pockets of beauty, if only we choose what matters in every moment that we’ve created, stepping back and merely seeing. To capture beauty in the moments that matter stills it to memory, creating fortitude for the long road ahead.
