Grace Matters

So I'm pretty sure that my next tattoo is going to have two words......

Grace Matters

one on each of the back side of my arm. simple statement but i think very underestimated with it's power...

it's a quote from Jeff Buckley (probably one of the most overlooked singer/songwriters of the 90's in the US anyway). He's looked at as a god in a countries he wasn't from..which slowly worries me...but kind of puts me at ease because these are people who genuinely look at you for who you are...and they understood his words...his hurt, pain, and love which is a beautiful thing to me...

anyway..

Grace Matters was really taken from a his quote in an interview that stated :

"grace is what matters"

( i thought grace matters would just fit better haha )

but the realism behind the idea is just genius...

grace matters...

he said

we are a people who are took quick to jump for the gun, and destroy things that we don't realize how beautiful they are until they're destroyed ...

but if we had a little grace in life...maybe we would could step back and enjoy before reaching for that gun so quickly.

.....this is a phrase i think everyone should really get into..

could just save the world.
