through painted deserts


last night i ended up at pennical point at this cool little turn off with tons of hiking and running trails that's really just in the middle of suburbia. just one turn around the mountain and your back in flat and boiling Phoenix... but for an instant i wasn't in the city anymore. and i caught one of the most amazing sights i've seen in a long time! a sunset! something i've taken for granted for so long but actually took time to sit down after i finished taking pictures and just enjoy the beauty of it. I tried to capture it but it was just so quiet i had to put the camera down and just enjoy the scenery and beautiful weather.

cause for real? it's like a special unique gift every single day by our Creator reminding us he made each of us unique just like this sunset and put the same care and love in each of us... back off... i work in a church during the day... you don't expect me to get sappy and deep every once in a while?

now to offset that tone and as a special prize for reading the entire post, no worries, i DID get punctured approximately 12 times by burs and cactus needles by my foolish hike off the trail in my flipflops. don't worry mom, now that i'm on my own, i still refuse to wear appropriate shoes...
