For the last several weeks, I've been devouring this book, Bittersweet by Shauna Niequist. I love her real-life writing style, her painful honesty, and the truth that life can be both horribly bitter and amazingly sweet all at the same time. Throughout the whole book I kept wanting to underline and hi-light and circle stuff, and every time I was disappointed that I couldn't because it belongs to the library.
This is a quote that I wrote down while I was reading though, (ok, I actually typed it into my iPhone) and it's been rolling through my head all day. It does a good job of summing up how I feel as of late.
I was afraid . . . that it would always be like that. I was afraid that this was the new normal, that seasons of lightness and peace were over in my life, and this brittle, fractured way of living would last forever.
