i never met her. this girl who touched my heart. i glimpsed her through her blog only after i started blogging. it was coincidence. or happenstance. or chance. or maybe fate that directed me towards her. sara. the gitzen girl. i read her words, read her story and found inspiration in her basic decision: choose joy. so simple. and yet so hard. life is all about choices. choices about what to wear, what to eat, where to live. choices about partners, and friends, and jobs. but sara reminded everyone that our most important choices...the ones that matter in the end...are those choices we make with our hearts. those chances we decide to take. the willingness we have to risk looking silly for the sake of something bigger. something better. something more. and that's what sara did. that's what sara shared. she laid her life on the line. she laid her heart out for all to see. she laid out her bad and her good. her heartaches and triumphs. her pleasures
choosing to see God in the unlikely places. it's not about me...it's about Him.
