“Life is amazing. And then it's awful. And then it's amazing again. And in between the amazing and awful it's ordinary and mundane and routine. Breathe in the amazing, hold on through the awful, and relax and exhale during the ordinary. That's just living heartbreaking, soul-healing, amazing, awful, ordinary life. And it's breathtakingly beautiful.” -  L.R. Knost

That was the quote that came to mind when I was journaling and looking at these ordinary days with Luke exploring Japan and a million beckoning cats.
