Seeing the world through extraordinarily-colored glasses


"I used to dream about escaping my ordinary life, but my life was never ordinary.  I had simply failed to notice how extraordinary it was." - Jacob Portman in Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, by Ransom Riggs

Kinda reminds me of the Roald Dahl quote about magic—you gotta keep your eyes peeled.  Or wear special glasses, I suppose.


Apologies for the thug face.  I promise you I'm smizing behind those sunnies.  :)

  1. That quote is REALLY resonating with me right now. It's hard to leave your life and then realize that you didn't have things too bad...

    Yes, magic is allllllll around us! Happy I see it more no matter where I am!

    Hugs,
