Inspiration.

I love love this blog:

I have been following Elsie's blog since I was a freshman in college. I am so inspired that she and her sister went after their dream and made it a reality.

It just really inspires me that I can too, ya know?

They also seem to have a really beautiful sisterhood. And that blesses me.

A close friend of mine played me this song today and said it reminded her of me. It's called "Roll Away Your Stone" by Mumford and Sons. When she played it for me, this part kindof bowled me over:

It seems that all my bridges have been burned
But you say 'That's exactly how this grace thing works’
It's not the long walk home that will change this heart
But the welcome I receive with every start

My favorite is the first 2 lines...How incredible beautiful is that?! I want to show that kindof grace. I feel that is one of the main things that keeps some of my closest friendships going.

That even in their darkest times, there is this grace thing that is a canopy.

I am so undeserving of that from my God, but He extends it anyway.

I love that I have friends who want to be more like Him.

I hope that is an example that I too can live under.
