Reflecting on 2020

And here it is at last, the final day of 2020. As I sit here reflecting on this past year, it feels like so many are eager to dismiss this year as bad…but I feel like there is always something good we can take away. Even from a challenging year like 2020 was for all… Continue reading Reflecting on 2020

Be your own super hero

It’s amazing how your mindset can change in a split second and suddenly you feel renewed with strength and hope. The last couple weeks I’ve been in a bit of a mental slump; even a little depressed/sad. I am missing face to face interaction with friends a lot. Terribly, actually. I have realized now more… Continue reading Be your own super hero

If you listen, God is there

My husband and I have often talked about how easy it can be for our mind to get lost in the darkness of negative ideas that frustrate or produce anxiety in us if left to unravel. How very important it is to not let yourself get lost in negative thoughts and have a healthy support… Continue reading If you listen, God is there

How are you doing in life?

If you’re reading this post and you are someone in my life, meaning someone that knows me more than as a mere acquaintance, this post is not about you. If for some reason it hits close to your heart and you think I am writing it with you in mind, I assure you I’m not.… Continue reading How are you doing in life?

Such is life.

It’s been quite a while since I’ve been on here. Sorry about that. That’s not to say I haven’t been writing though. I’ve just taken to the old fashioned way of pen and paper. I even filled up an entire journal book from front to end. I think that may be a first for me.… Continue reading Such is life.

Trust is: leaning on God

There’s a gal on Instagram that I enjoying following. She’s a young lady, I think maybe in her mid 20’s, that lives in Texas. She’s a teacher and she also created an online digital planner among other cool tools. What I love about her posts and stories is her positive attitude and that she is… Continue reading Trust is: leaning on God

Miraculous fixes without pain

I picked up Lysa Terkeurst’s book “It’s Not Supposed To Be This Way.” Not because I’m currently going through life shattering heartache or pain, but I have been there before and I have close friends and family that are there now. I picked it up because sometimes pain, difficulties, or heartache don’t need to be… Continue reading Miraculous fixes without pain

We are meant to change the world

One of my favorite things to do in the mornings while I’m freshening up and getting ready for the day (and everyone is still asleep), is to listen to a podcast. My favorite is Focus on the Family. When I listen to these podcasts, I feel like the endless stream of thoughts on my mind… Continue reading We are meant to change the world

My Weapon Is A Melody

Since I can remember music has been a powerful source of comfort, escape, self expression, and so much more for me. One of my fondest memories was singing in the school choir during my middle school years. I always felt alive when I was singing or performing on stage and probably one of my biggest… Continue reading My Weapon Is A Melody
