An oldie, but a goodie.

So, I was reading an old journal last night, and I came across this quote...it was really thought provoking at that time, and I think it kind of encapsulated how I felt in that exact moment of time. What's really great is seeing what you wanted to be at one point in your life, and realizing that somehow, you've taken some good steps in that direction.

Check this out, from my "dear friend" (and as some love to remind me, it could've been oh so much more more)...Donald Miller:

"My life testifies that the first thing that I believe is that I am the most important person in the world. My life testifies to this because I care more about my food and shelter and my happiness than anything else.

I am learning to believe better things. I am learning to believe that other people exist, that fashion is not truth; rather, JESUS is the most important figure in history and the Gospel is the most powerful force in the universe. I am learning not to be passionate about empty things, but cultivate passion for justice, grace and truth, and communciate the idea that Jesus likes people, and even loves them."

There's a reason I thought I could fall for that man. :)

Only kidding.

(Sorry for the lack of posts, and abudance of quotes these days. If you saw my dayplanner, you'd understand, and probably even question where I fit in a minute to do this -- FIVE WEEKS UNTIL I GRADUATE!!!!)
