.God's burden.

Well hello blogging world,
Time to blog before I trek into the night for a very long study sesh! Lot's of homework due tomorrow... Today was wonderful! Started out early by going to Seattle with my roommate and visiting Pikes Place where I bought new loose lead tea from my favorite tea shop "World Spice" - I got Peppermint, Chamomile, Raspberry Splash, and a black tea. I had some peppermint tonight and loved it! Following that, we wandered around and I got a few vegetables and a fresh load of sour dough bread that is amazing! Not many of the shops were open that early, so we didn't explore too much. We then found a coffee shop where I had a cis up of Clam Chowder with Warm Pita Bread and a cup of tea to warm up in the rainy weather. Even though I had class and work the rest of the day, this made my day!
Lesson learned about business number one: Invest in a good iron. Or else you'll end up yelling at your $10 one from target at midnight...
 
Thought for the day: I'm finding love again. In daily life. Today's love and grace was the ability to go to pikes this morning and enjoy simple blessings. The other day I found love and grace that burdened and saddened my heart as I saw a handicapped man homeless who's head was almost completely indented on top and misshaped. My heart cried for him. My inspiration was found by God breaking my heart and giving me little blessings and joys. 
Reminds me of this song: "Love" by Clarensau
"I saw love in a hurricane,
Just after the storm,
Running through the rain
And I saw God
On a busy street,
In the face of a lonely man,
Who's wall, it was so thick,
You won't believe

And I found love
I found love

I saw grace,
On a hotel floor
In a girl who's crying now,
Hoping that there's something more
Than the card she's been given,
Than the hole in her heart,
Than the pain in the memories
That Daddy left and caused
But I want to tell her
Oh, she has to know
Oh, I found something bigger;
Something that won't let go

And I found love
That will not leave
That will not leave
Oh, I found love

(Even when I'm hurting,
Even when I'm down,
Your love will never leave me;
I found Love)

And I found love
That will not leave
That will not leave
Oh, I found love

(And even when I cannot stand
On my two feet again,
Your love will never leave me,
Oh, I found love)

And I found love
That will not leave
That will not leave
Oh, I found love

(And even when I find myself
At the end of my rope,
Your love will never leave me,
Oh, I found love)

And I found love
That will not leave
That will not leave
Oh, I found love

(And even when I throw myself
Into a deeper whole,
Your love will never leave me,
Oh, I found love)

And I found love
That will not leave
That will not leave
Oh, I found love
