One of the beauties of writing I can't stop thanking God for is remembering and tracking growth, progress, and development in my life. That's why I journal so religiously; I know I will appreciate it down the line. I have been blogging since I was 11 years old, and it's been such a gift for me to go back and see how I thought at earlier[...]
Ah, this is another post I've been wanting to write forever. It's no secret that I someday hope to be married and do put a lot of thought into my future marriage/husband; I've written two letters to him here and here. I've only scratched the surface, though, of this topic and my thoughts towards it, and since this is such a big thing man[...]
Hi everyone! Another long time with no post. When I thought about whenever I was going to blog again, of course I had my list of reasons for my absence, such as finals for school, being busy, etc., but really, I could tell something was off that went far deeper than that. After all, I’m a pretty passionate person, and I love to make tim[...]
I have a confession to make. Immediately after coming home from the wonderful trip I recapped (as well as things I learned!) here, I basically ignored all of that and allowed my mind to recess back into its previous negative mindsets. And when they came back, they came back strong. This lasted a good few days after my trip. I tried to jus[...]
My family took their annual trip up to Canada where they would be fishing for a whole week, and this city-loving-girly-girl took a pass on that last year and did so again this year. I did spend the two years before that going on the trip with them, and while I highly enjoyed the experience of seeing another country and the outdoors in tha[...]
Stress is something that imprisons most people in this society. I see it everywhere. I’ve been to hockey games, which are supposed to be fun, and I see people that are agitated while they’re getting food or otherwise exhibiting an all around edginess. I’ve been to hockey games, and I’ve been stressed because my mind isn’t t[...]
Oh my gosh you guys I am so sorry it’s been over a month since I’ve posted….. I’m not on another hiatus, at least certainly not by choice, but I’ve been more busy than I ever have been between balancing the workload of school this year and then taking driver’s ed, too. Thankfully that is about over—I just pray to God I pass[...]
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[...]
I have mentioned countless times on this blog that you should trust God all the way. But you might be asking WHY? How do I know I can trust God and that He is really looking out for me? I promise you can. I see Him working in my life all the time, and I know He is looking after me. And you can totally let go and let Him take care of your[...]
