Donald Miller is my favorite author, and I'm currently reading his newest book Scary Close.  I ran across this sentence on page 22 the other night and just loved it.  I think it's quite fitting for my vision of this blog, 'having it all together'. 
P.S. if you're into this kind of stuff: To make this super quick jpeg, I used PowerPoint.  I didn't have access to Photoshop and frankly, until I get better at it, everything takes me 5 times as long in Photoshop.  So, in PowerPoint, I made two text boxes, filled in the backgrounds, and changed the fonts.  Then I used a snipping tool to crop the picture into a jpeg.  The first time I tried this, the picture turned out super pixelly when I got ready to Instagram.  Then, I figured out that it works best to maximize the picture on the computer as much as possible before snipping.  I don't know the technical terms for this, but basically pictures lose quality when you enlarge so it's better to start big and get to a smaller sharing size.  Then, voila...Instagram ready.
