Inspiring Souls 3/13/2008

Since I love to journal--or I guess more currently--blog, there are a few blogs that I check out pretty regularly. I’ve always been a fan of “thinkers” so it’s a pleasure to find someone who I have that trait in common with, but who, more importantly, I can learn from. I ran across Ink on My Fingers while I was looking through Christine Mason Miller’s “favorite people” list. Since I admire Christine for her art and writing, I find great pleasure in reading the blogs of those who inspire her. And what an insightful and creative bunch they are.

Ink On My Fingers is a beautiful place. The pieces of Susannah’s life that make the pieces of her writing are sad, bare, and grief stricken, but all the while there remains a transparent underlining that reflects hope, happiness and peace. The way that she writes of her loss makes my heart ache, and then I wonder if there is some coincidence as to why I came across such a site since I don’t feel I can relate all that much? Regardless of the reason that I found her blog, or it found me, writing on all intricacies of life and the human spirit is invaluable. There is much to be learned from the hearts of those around us.

If you wonder why I’ve entered this blogging world anyway, read Susannah’s Half a dozen of the other post. She explains this phenomenon perfectly.
