Think back to when you were a kid. You either were, or knew someone who was, disobedient at least once or maybe even rebellious at times. Question. Did your parents like it? (I'm gonna go with no). Did they hate you or turn their back on you? (Majority answer would be no....for the small minority...I'm… Continue reading Why are you running?

Praise you in the storm
I have so many things but for today, this song is where it's at, so I'm gonna leave you some lyrics. It's Praise you in the Storm by Casting Crowns. I was sure by now, God you would have reached down/ And wiped our tears away, / Stepped in and saved the day. But once again, I… Continue reading Praise you in the storm
Get your mind first…
So if you are my friend (I mean you're all my friends but specifically from the 'gram or Facebook), you know I've gotten back into #artparty days. I mean granted there's not much else to do that fits within the lifting restrictions lol but it's also something that I have been using to get and… Continue reading Get your mind first…
Scattered boxes
I like control. Hopefully I'm not the only one, but I really like to be in control of things...situations, schedules, my life...I mean everything that can be controlled. Lol. Surely I'm not the only one. I know people who can just roll with it and I just struggle with that. So. Much. I like to… Continue reading Scattered boxes
Enough…
We are so caught up with how we stack up against other people. I mean life seems like a huge competition sometimes, and I don't know about you, but for me it can really get me down. I have always struggled with how I compare to other people. There was a time in my youth… Continue reading Enough…
Not how it’s supposed to be…
I eluded in the last post about spending time processing and grieving what will never be. I have done that some, and while there's more to do...more to process, writing is one of the ways I process, and if you're walking in this season with me, you need to know what I'm walking through. When… Continue reading Not how it’s supposed to be…
Feel the hurts
So I'm reading a book called Looking for Lovely (by Annie F Downs) for community group. Y'all! This book has hit on so many things that I feel so hard right now. The chapter I read tonight was talking about tragedy. In it, she says we have to feel the pain and not ignore it… Continue reading Feel the hurts
The struggle
I'm not trying to constantly be like "woe is me", but man...I am riding the struggle bus so hard today I might be driving it. Granted my struggles are not as hard as other people's but life isn't a competition. Thank goodness. Because I'm competitive and I don't like to lose. I'm struggling with finding… Continue reading The struggle
How are you?
It's a social nicety. "How are you?" The appropriate response is "good, you?" I mean they teach it in every language class, right? But what if you're not...you know...."good"? I struggle with this. I went to Bible study this week....the first week back from surgery. (My social network is straight up shut down. Lol. I… Continue reading How are you?
My heart is overwhelmed…
So this blog is relatively new, so you don't necessarily know me...yet. I let you know a little bit about me in the previous post. I'm single, 40s, no kids. Just a dog. And, 2 weeks ago I had a hysterectomy. I had been had been having difficulty with that organ for...well forever. A giant… Continue reading My heart is overwhelmed…
