Persevering

Tomorrow is the last day of school. I can't wait. First, summer. Duh. But I need to renew so much. Academically this year has been great except for my horrifying art skills, but per usual, socially it has been much harder. Some days I feel on top of the world. I feel like I'm finally dealing with my emotions, and I feel like I'm totally c[...]

Blogging, People Pleasing, and Fitting In

We all want our blogs to be read. We want our posts to be liked, tweeted and shared. To achieve that, there’s all these blog tips out there. And that’s great. It really is. But you should never feel too bad if you’re not doing one of them because it just doesn’t work for you. You see, we want our blogs to fit in. We want them[...]

Talking About Dreams and Waiting

We all have dreams, and a lot of us are not good at patience. That's me! Lately I've been wanting to do so much with my blog. I want to start making money through it. I want to get paid to write about products/events I love. I want to make my blog a big thing because people can get book deals that way. The list goes on. Making[...]

A Letter to Myself About Basketball

Dear Ashlee, This is me to talking to you. Duh. It's a letter to MYSELF about basketball. Why am I writing this? Because I know you, and I know you've had a lot of concerns about basketball. This isn't going to be a rant about travel leagues or anything, this is just a letter to you about things. Some of your concerns are fitting in,[...]

This is Why

I'm Ashlee, and I write a blog. I'm also working on publishing a book. I dream of inspiring people and being a light for the Lord because my faith is everything to me, and I want others to experience a relationship with Christ as well. Why? Because... You can't get through life with sappy quotes. You can, but it will just make life a[...]

Rejected

This is a very hard post for me to write because I do not want to offend anyone, and I do not want to come off bitter at something just because I got rejected from it. People will believe what they want anyways, and if this post comes out controversial then I'm sorry, but I beg you not to leave hate. I'm all about hearing different o[...]

Keep Going

This post, truly, is kind of going to be a bunch of random ramblings. I've got a whole list of blog posts I could write, but now none of them seem fun to write at the time. I haven't blogged in forever, and I don't know why. Maybe some of my responses *or excuses* are I'm too busy, I don't know what to write about, or I don't have an[...]

2014 Basketball

I've been playing basketball since I was in third grade, and I was the typical scared-of-the-ball girl. At the time, there happened to be a church league for girls first-third grade going on. I would get to play games with others girls who signed up. I got a specific team and t-shirt jersey, and I thought that was so cool. My parents[...]

Hi, I’m Ashlee!

Hi, I’m Ashlee!

Welcome to My Blog

I am passionate about sharing and living for Jesus, authentic storytelling, moving design, and all things girly, just because. Here on my blog, I love writing about all the things God is teaching me in my everyday life to inspire, encourage, and entertain for His glory, above all, and to share an honest, raw view of life, faith, and His light, love, and hope that saves. As an aspiring author, I record my journey of trusting God with all my dreams. I pray this space can help you fall in love with God more deeply, make you laugh, and encourage, challenge, and reassure you as you seek to live a bold, abundant life for Him.
