Once Upon a Time

Time to tell a story, so I decided today that I would try to write an opening for my blog (this blog) and explain my life and how I wish to see the world; this is my second draft, I started over because what would have been my first entry seemed to come across to dramatic and a lot like nicely written words that didn’t really represent me or rather more me as a theory or idea of my life and not so much me as a person writing from my heart. As a started over with my “story” that word story made me think of To Write Love On Her Arms and how Jamie is always saying how everyone has a story, and how every story matters, and how they go out and put on events; these events to share the message of hope and help and healing and when it comes right down to it the best part of what they do is found in the moments when they get to hear the stories; and one of the coolest things they do is when they hear these stories they really listen and make people feel just a little bit better by reminding them that their story matters. All that being said when I think about this blog and what I wish for it to be, I think I’d like to tell my story, some days this story will be full of adventure and growth, beauty and change, other days it may be nothing more than what seems to be an ordinary life being lived be an ordinary girl. But ordinary is what you make it and I do believe with all my heart that there is beauty to be found in every moment, that we live in a world filled with the wonderful, amazing beautiful creation of God. This is my story, my view of the world, the perspective God has given me and the best part about this story, view and perspective is that as I continue to seek after God, He will continue to write this story, the view will continue to change and my perspective will grow beyond it’s limits.
