During my recent trip to Costa Rica (see here for full recap) I had the opportunity to spend the day swimming at the base of the most incredible waterfall I have ever seen in person. After a 30-minute horseback ride and a 20-minute hike which led us to an insanely impressive hanging bridge, my friends and I finally arrived at the wonder that is known as the La Fortuna Waterfall deep in the middle of the forest.

I feel especially blessed to have been in the presence of such a powerful yet beautiful natural force, because it reminds me how insignificant the problems I think I have are in the grand scheme of things.

PS - I'm completely aware it was probably entirely too easy (and a bit corny I suppose) to quote TLC in the blog title, but what can I say? I just couldn't help myself.
