Captivating

So I've been reading this amazing book called Captivating. And I know that Mrs. Quantz would have a fit if she knew I didn't even italic or underline or quoteish that title. Ahaa. Anyways, it's basically the kind of book that every girl should read. I don't care if you think you're a 'woman' yet: read it. Stasi and John Eldredge wrote it, and they talk about why girls are like they are. How God made us in His image, and we reflect Him in the very essence of feminity. At the heart of every woman we long to be romanced (what girl really truly doesn't like romance???), to play an irreplaceable role in a great adventure (we're not meant to stay at home and be an invisible servant all our lives), and to unveil beauty (we all have a beauty that we hide). They write that God is like that. God wants desperately to be sought by us, to be loved by us, and He is a master of romance -- with all that undying love we always hear about. It's all about our hearts, and not being ashamed of it. Really, this book makes you think, makes you smile and most likely cry. (aha, Dara.)

Yeah... nothing I say could really give it justice. I just wanted to share this discovery, and that we should all read it. Vicki, Sarah, Dara, Brittany, JESSICA and all you other cool people out there. yes. Muaha.

I'm tired, so I'm leaving. And remember: I'll be gone this weekend. Dara, call me on Monday. Just do it.
