Sometimes plans just go out the window. I’m a planner – with everything – even my blog. I always have plans. But the truth is, I’ve been sitting here staring at a blinking cursor on my computer screen for two hours trying to think of what to write.
And all of it just seemed superficial. Trite. Fake. Pointless.
Yeah, I’m sharing the last of my when-I-had-long-hair outfit photos (by the way, my sweet blog and IRL friend Brooke and I are totally twins today – we may or may not have planned that. :)) but none of that is important right now.
Between the horrific events of Friday and just a heavy day on Sunday, there are just no giveaways, outfits, or words that feel right to share.
Our pastor at church shared this quote in the sermon yesterday which really hit home:
“Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.” -Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
So today, I leave you with my brief rambling, a powerful quote by MLKJr, and a reminder to love one another. Love a stranger. Love a neighbor. Love your family. Just Love.
