Think About These Things

Ireland’s AC

Posted on July 7, 2012 by lyonsroarforgod

As I sit here contemplating the upcoming 104 degree day here in the States, I am remembering fondly the wind and the temperatures of Ireland. Now for those of you in Ireland who have had your share of wind and rain this summer, you would probably switch with me right now. However, this video I found on YouTube made me feel much cooler as I watched it and imagined myself standing on that cliff in Co. Donegal, feeling the bracing and cleansing wind. Enjoy the wind and the waves and God’s amazing power. Slainte, Lisa

“A Living Worth Scraping”

Posted on July 3, 2012 by lyonsroarforgod

Something different for today’s blog. I saw this video by Mickey Smith, a surf photographer from Ireland, and it was amazing. I had to post it for all of you to watch. I could never do what he does, but it sure is awe-inspiring to see the power of the ocean and the waves.

DARK SIDE OF THE LENS from Astray Films on Vimeo.

A couple of quotes from the video that I liked:

“If I am to scrape a living, at least it’s a living worth scraping.”

“My heart bleeds Celtic blood.”

“Ma always encouraged us to open our eyes and our hearts to the world. Make up our own minds by experience and be inspired.”

“See life in angles and lines of perspective. A slight turn of the head, the blink of an eye, subtle glimpses of magic…”

Live life today, looking for glimpses of God that are all around you, just blink & look.
