inspiration in a coffee shop

I have quite a few friends. But, I only have a few real friends.

The friends I met up with last night are quite possibly the most amazing people I've ever met.
They just really inspire me to be a better person.

Over our choices of hot chocolate, coffee, and whatever Autumn ended up getting, we were able to finally catch up on life. As an hour passed, the topics got deeper. It turned towards God and inspiring quotes that really moved us.

Kelsey told us, "If I woke up one morning with everything I thanked the Lord for the day before, what would I wake up to?"

Honestly, I would wake up to nothing. And even though that is what I deserve, God is such a patient Father. Sometimes I just wonder "why??"

I'm not sure if the people I met up with last night know how much they mean to me and push me to be a better person, but they do. All three have been there for me and are inspiring women of God. I'm so thankful they have been put in my life.

When Starbucks almost forced us to leave, we stayed outside and took pictures. We said our good-byes and hugged Autumn one last time before she was headed to Greece.

-I hope you have fun, Autumn! I can't wait to stalk your blog about every adventure!
-And Kelsey, I'll be rootin' for you to get into that school! I'm sure you'd do great!

-I love you, Tamzen. It was SO great to see you!

My friends inspire me & i loved being able to see them.
