all'improvviso amore [trans. sudden love]

This is my friend. She is pretty dang sweet. And pretty dang pretty, too.

This is what she posted on her blog, and it immediately screamed at me (in a good way, don't worry). I'm not a 100% sure, but I'd like to think it's talking about God. At least, that's how I read it, anyways.

Those who know me well know that quotes are terribly important to me. (How important? Ask me about my tattoos.) As Fall Out Boy (I know, I know) says in one of their songs, "...I can write it better than you ever felt it." Which, I think, really just sums it up nicely. Don't get me wrong: pictures are nice, and can be breathtaking at times, but words are really where it's at for me. Words are my deal.

In words I can find comfort, hope, inspiration, joy, and any other kind of emotion you could name. One single word can bring to mind so many different emotions I can't name them all, and even just thinking of the memories brought to mind in that span of 5 seconds can, and will, stir up anything from tears to hatred to uncontrollable laughter.

Words are powerful, and so is my God. Through His words, I can find peace, joy, hope, inspiration, comfort, and love. I am loved. God loves me and will never and could never leave me, and I am precious to Him. And in that, I find solace. And realizing that fact is all-powerful.
