becoming layne

i just watched Becoming Jane with Erin.  this summer has been filled with lots of jane austen and gilmore girls...something I would have been ashamed to admit even weeks ago.  i hear God inviting me to step into this part of me, to admit, and finally give into the fact that i am a hopelessly romantic woman.  i so greatly adore and believe in beauty, justice, truth, and love - and my life is so enriched by it.  several of you reading this will smile as you have so greatly helped me step into this part of myself that i have been so committed to ignoring and fought very hard against.  thanks for your love and commitment to me, and for helping me live more freely as the woman God created me to be, the whole sappy entirety of it. :)  so to go along with that idea, here's a lovely romantic photo of one of my favorite walks in indiana on a fall day
