It's been weeks of typing and abruptly shutting my laptop, about eleven weeks of starting to type so beautifully, deleting it and going to sleep, several weeks of being indefinitely unsure of everything, and dwelling on that, wrongly so. Several weeks of God's goodness, through it all. Several weeks of learning to trust in Jesus [...]
It's been almost 11 weeks off my site, but here I am like I never left. Prior to six days ago, I had never heard of the Liebster award, but God blessed us with Lizah Sagini so here we are! The Liebster Award is an award that exists only on the internet and is given [...]
I'm sure my title is a bit confusing, but, six months later, what's on my mind is Finding Nemo and Finding Dory and, well, I'm in a phase of finding me, more. Adams sent me a text and told me to get back to writing. Thank you for reminding me to be, as Eleanor Roosevelt [...]
After a thought provoking sermon this week, I feel like there's the need to have a candid discussion on who we really are. Relationship wise, especially. And truths shared succinctly.

She, In the dark, Found light Brighter than many can ever see. She, Within herself, Found loveliness, Through the soul's own mastery And now the soul receives From her dower: The message of strength Of inner power. ~Langston Hughes via Kwamboka O'Kireki Photo: John Newton, Unsplash
Dust if you must, but wouldn't it be better To paint a picture, or write a letter, Bake a cake, or plant a seed; Ponder the difference between want and need? Dust if you must, but there's not much time, With rivers to swim, and mountains to climb; Music to hear, and books to read; [...]
