Response to: Open the Eyes of my Heart...

Something I've noticed is that we tend to take a lot of things for granted. I know that phrase is way overused, but do we TRULY know exactly what we take for granted? Do we look at ourselves in the mirror and think about what other people must go through and how difficult life has to be for them? Sure, we'll see someone who owns nothing and find that they are content, or someone with an extremely difficult past and find that they've forgiven and have been living to the fullest, but when the message comes from a 10-year old boy... who has to live partially sunken into his own world through Autism... but is also Blind... it really Opens our Eyes as to what we take for granted every single day! The song is so meaningful through the pure voice of this child... and if it doesn't do something to your heart, then play it again... and truly listen to the depth behind it.

The Beginning...

Blogging has always sort of caught my eye... I love to write and I think this is going to be an interesting and really fun way to put words onto these 'pages' and talk about my life and all the crazy-fun things that happen to me. This is my freshman year of college and so far I have had experiences like none other! God has been the center of it all and I thank Him for everything I am and have gone through.
