There are an innumerable amount of problems in this society, and as I grow up, I realize how complex some of these really are. You know, when you're young, it's so easy to just say something and then be on your way, even with faith. It's so easy to just say something like to trust God, but then you get older, and there's so much complexit[...]

Remember my post from yesterday where I talked about (a) how fast time is going and (b) I'm so overwhelmed with thoughts to write about that I don't even know where to start? It feels weird to just jump in with a super deep, serious post since I just came off of my long blogging absence from June 2017, but I'm itching to write those posts[...]
It seems like just yesterday I was entering fifth grade. Here in a week now, I'll already be done. A freshman in high school. That's actually hitting me now. Plus I ended up passing my driver's test, and I did get my permit, so you all need to stay off the sidewalks now. ;) I have been ready to be done with middle school for quite so[...]
I can remember the day I started writing my first book. It was someday in the spring, 2014. I was sitting at my usual fave spot at our kitchen table, right next to the window, which had revealed a nice spring day (I think, haha, but I was writing about spring that day because I felt inspired to do so, so I'm guessing it was). I remember[...]
Hey, everyone! This is another old post I wrote that got lost in my drafts and never published, so I thought I'd share it today! I wrote this on June 6, 2016, right before we were leaving for our trip to Canada! I can't write as much content on this blog right now as I normally could because I'm hard at work on a new project to be announc[...]
This is a short post I wrote back on May 5, 2016, that I never published. It talks about how to find true, lasting happiness. With all that goes on in my own life, I need this - the TRUE way to get LASTING happiness. Believe me when I say these are just the basics. Since then, I've had my faith seriously tested over and over again, a[...]
When's the last time you took the time to stop and reflect on what you're passionate about? Do you know how important that is? Life is too short to not be passionate about something. Maybe more than one thing. God has designed each one of us with our own special gifts, talents, stories, dreams, passions, etc. So when's the last time[...]
Sometimes you can't sleep. No matter how tired and worn out you are, sleep will not come. Sometimes this is part of facing the consequences of looking at your phone for two hours (haha guilty as charged; there's no better time to check Facebook than at eleven at night). Most of the times it's because of fear and relentless anxiety as[...]
I promised to write a blog post dedicated solely to what God taught me in 2016. On New Year's Day, my family spent most of it traveling home from my grandparents' house. I really don't mind traveling, and I don't typically mind long car rides. They give me a nice opportunity to relax, think, and observe. And that's what I did. I jour[...]
