Julia said...

Oh, Rachel...you make my heart flutter. And make my shine shinier.

Thank you for always brightening my heart with your sparkly light.

I love you so.

I love this! It's so true. It's like being in math class and having no clue what's going on, afraid to say something, until someone else raises their hand and says "I don't get it." Inspiring.

Jennifer said...

I love, love, love this! You have no idea. Oh my goodness I am just totally soaking it in.

Liv @ Choosing Beauty said...

Oh, god I love this! And I love Jennifer - of course she said that!!!! Shine on, baby.

Elizabeth Halt said...

Love this one! May we all shine in our own spirits! It also brings wonderful memories as a little girl in Indiana catching fireflies to light my way!

Yael said...

How sweet is that Rachel!!!!!!

In German the lovely fireflies have a funny name, they are called "Gluehwuermchen" - but they shine the same - gloriously!!

Bella Sinclair said...

Beautifully touching, and a wonderful reminder for us all. You have a gift for making us see the magic in the words we all take for granted. It's like you have your own special butterfly net for catching beauty.

Have a wonderful weekend, Rachel!
