The Final Curtain

I'm retiring. It has happened.

Whilst I have loved sharing my ramblings with the world here, I am leaving for bigger and better places.
So instead of the occasional essay on my thoughts and beliefs, feel free to join my daily adventures in the labyrinth of life on my new blog https://onefinemorningblog.wordpress.com/.
Together with my buddy Moy we are gonna share our loves and our non-loves on a range of different topics including fitness, food, music, films, news and more!
So farewell, it's been good.

To quote the god himself John Green:

“Thomas Edison's last words were 'It's very beautiful over there'. I don't know where there is,but I believe it's somewhere, and I hope it's beautiful."

Beautiful Things

This week I went away with a bunch of mates and we chatted a lot about the story of creation.  I think no matter what your beliefs on the creation of the world are, there's no arguing its beauty. I felt so humbled by the notion that we were created from the dusts of the earth, yet here we are, purposeful beings, with beating hearts and breathing lungs and eyes to see and mouths to speak.

In the first book of the bible, creation is described. After God makes each element he states "It is good".  On the sixth day, God created human beings;  "³¹ And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good". The original hebrew is 'Tov Meod'.  This means that not only are we good, we are created in the image of God, and we were so much greater than He ever planned.

"You make beautiful things out of the dust, you make beautiful things out of us"

These song lyrics from Beautiful Things by Gungor basically sum it all up perfectly. It reminds me that we can see the broken restored. That even the dirtiest of objects can be wiped and washed clean. God has made us new, and is still making us new. 

For all of this - cheers God!

Amen and out-

Kate

Hello?

I wanna say something, I'm gonna put it out there; if you like it, you can take it, if you don't, send it right back.

Yes, this is my first time blogging. Yes, i opened with a quote from Ron Burgundy. Yes, this will probably be the most atrocious attempt at blogging you will ever lay eyes on. But hey, Que sera sera, right?

First, Hello. (Is it me you're looking for?) My name's Kate. I basically have a passion for anything and everything. This blog is simply an outlet for my many ramblings in regards to just about every aspect of life from human rights to food, maybe we'll chuck in some religion somewhere there, even a few humorous happenings from my life every now and then. And of course a healthy level of good music.

So here's to new beginnings!
