This post is one in the nature of victory, because I, procrastinator that I am, have left a task to nearly the end of a deadline and miraculously crossed the finish line with flying colors. Huzzah!
I am honored to be in a wedding of two very dear friends this weekend (as is my husband) and needed to find white shoes for the occasion. I have left this to almost the last minute. But today I got out the door with Cillian and within an hour and a half, found the perfect pair for $7 at Payless, not to mention a strapless unmentionable at Kohl's for $8. I was a happy gal.
Today was a good day. I'm excited for Caleb to get home because we're making one of our favorite dinners - BLTs. And I've definitely missed him today. It'll be a nice evening. Maybe we'll go for a walk tonight.
I've got something random to add to this post - I'm going to start putting up a quote of the day. I absolutely love quotes. So I'm going to put one up for you each day: it might be something from a book, a quote from the saints or church fathers, from Scripture, something funny or even something from real life that someone has said. I hope they inspire you, or make you stop and think, or laugh, or all three!
And so, I will conclude this post with the very first Quote of the Day by one of my favorite Orthodox saints.
"The purer the heart is, the larger it is, and the more able it is to find room within it for a greater number of beloved ones; while the more sinful it is, the more contracted it becomes, and the less number of beloved can it find room for, because it is limited by self-love, and that love is a false one."
~ St. John of Kronstadt
