I've never been surrounded by so many strangers that are so loving and accepting. For so long I've been looking for acceptance and validity in certain people and left feeling rejected and disappointed. That's not to say that I've not had people in my life that love me for who I am, my family, my husband, my best friend...they have, and always will be my strongest support system. I guess I kind of figured that I was always going to be in a situation where I didn't fit in. I'm too strange for church people, I'm not strange enough for my art school friends...But now, the feeling of love and acceptance and community that I've found! Not just like minded but like spirited. People who understand the thought processes and lifestyle of an artist and also have such a sensitive heart to the Lord. To hear His voice. To be His hands and feet on the earth. To be strange and beautiful children of God.
