sienna says.

she has positively pointed me


to start thinking differently.

and I love her so dearly for it because sometimes you find yourself in a rut and going the opposite direction. Only seeing the rain, or the flat iron burn on your right index finger, or your insanely busy schedule... or lack of one, the new found dent in your car, the busted screen in your front door, the missing toaster (!), all the milk is gone...again, the monstrous size of my gas tank, your messy house, and then the slight intimidation of planning a wedding, starting a new job, and loving my boyfriend, family, and friends well.

I could keep listing these little and big things that have started to cause me to think negatively and drag me down. But that's the thing about negatives. The list will only grow unless they're counter-acted and replaced with recognition and gratitude of Christ and what he's done...of all the good sitting right there. Kyrie anna ruth has reminded me to put that back into my day.

So here's to Kyrie. to mangoes. picnics. good sermons. cat power. and trees outside our houses.
