Three Things Thursday
1. gilmore girls: there's something about the easy banter that the 2 women in that show have that i just love. it caputred me from day one and i've caught every episode since. sometimes i even watch the reruns.
2. wildfire: this is a fairly new show that's in it's second season. it revolves around racing horses and that is pretty cool to me. my uncle does some racing horses and i remember going ot see them when i was younger so maybe that's why i really like it.
3. the office: this is a pretty new thing. i saw my first episode maybe 2 months ago and just loved it so since them my husband and i have been watching them and they just keep me laughing.
some of my other favorites are:
scrubs, smallville, survivor, seventh heaven, (what's up with the "s" named tv shows, weird) and just recently my husband taped the pilot episode of lost. he's already seen the 1st season and he is currently watching the 2nd season now but i didn't start watching with him. anyways, after watching the pilot episode i was hooked. so he was able to get me the first season on dvd from some friends so i will be able to catch up with him. i'm excited.

A Woman's Heart
To remain tight in a bud was more painful
Than the risk it took to blossom.
-Anais Nin
I just started a study with some friends on the book Captivating by: John and Staci Eldredge. I read the first chapter last night and just loved it. It was titled The Heart of a Woman. There were a couple of things that captured me and I thought that I would post some of them. The Eldredge's talk about three things that you'll find in the heart of evey woman: to be romanced, to play an irreplaceable role in a great adventure, and to unveil beauty. These three things make women come alive.
They go on to talk about how women want to feel desired and pursued by the one what loves them and to be made a priority. They mention movies like Little Women, how Fredrich returns for Jo or here's another one, Ever After, how the prince comes to rescue Danielle and on and on you can think of movies where the heroine is rescued but not even that she rescued but that she is pursed and loved.
Then there is the great adventure that women want to be a part of. How we want to be brave and honorable, needed and worthy, courageous and heroic. We don't want to simply be safe, nice and sweet but passionate and powerful.
And finally they talk about how women desire to be beautiful. Thinking back to when you played dress up as a little kid and wanted to hear how pretty and elegant you were all dressed up in the sparkley dress and high heels. You wanted to be the princess.
I am excited and thrilled to be reading this book and learning with the other women in my group what God intended when He created us women, what we want to be as women, and what is at the core of my heart. The journey has started.
