Inspired

So I was just looking at some friend's blogs and was inspired to create a blog. Like them, I always read things like this and think "Wow, these people are incredible at writing and inspire me to think bigger and do new crazy, adventurous things!" But why can't I do that too? I can inspire someone in the same way that they inspire me. So here goes nothing, my way of expressing my thoughts, (because we all know there are a lot of random ones going on!)

It took me a really long time to think of what to name my blog. Of course it is rather insignificant, but I really wanted it to be something that inspired me and truly reflected a part of who I am. So I decided on "Just Keep Me Where The Light Is". This is a line from a John Mayer song, Gravity. This is a song about how we can't let things bring us down and how we really have to work against the world. I often feel like I'm fighting against gravity and other normal day-to-day things, but I know if I do fight against them, that is the time that I can truly blossom.

The next reason for this title is because I am a little bit beyond obsessed with John Mayer. Anyone who has spent a small amount of time with me knows of my obsession and knows that I have his songs on repeat all day long. There's just something about his music that grabs at the strings of my heart and mesmerizes me beyond belief.

And the last reason for the title is more personal and it is my love for God. I like to think of him as the light of the world, and I would like to always be kept in His light no matter where that takes me. I don't know that the song was intended to be religious by any means, but again it inspires me to follow God in every way he asks of me.

I hope to keep up this blogging as an outlet and connection to you all and to continue to be inspired by my incredible family, friends, and world that surrounds me.
