Welcome to my blog!! Documenting the sights and souls that make me live big and love bigger while chasing joy every step of the way. :-)
Overflowing and overflowing, her heart glowed with bliss. Swirling and singing, the world blushed upon her figure.
Since one of my goals in this journal is to open up and share exactly those things I listed above and more, I thought maybe by telling you many of the accounts that I keep up with and hold dear on a daily basis, you might better understand where my feelings, thoughts, and words in my writing are coming from or what they are shaped by.
The world outside began to glow
Time was only a measurement on a glass face
I sank deeper into the untainted clouds
My eyes clear, glimmered bright blue once more
With every step, I looked further and further up
With every word, I healed. My lines stretched farther
An update on how my diary created an issue I didn’t see coming and how it propelled me to truly dive into writing with honesty and passion.
I think this is one of the most empowering things you can do for yourself and it is definitely something I strive to live by every day. The atmosphere that OV creates by supporting its consumers in leading a life characterized by encouragement to experience the world around them in an active, yet realistic way is inspiring.
As characterized by so many, you are an amazingly caring and selfless person, but this isn’t what makes you so special. What makes you so special is your deep belief and support for others. No matter what I've wanted to pursue in life or be in life, you have always made me believe that I was special enough, overly capable enough or great enough to achieve even more than I imagined.
Warm steam rose against the tall reeds
Figures fell and danced to the sounds
Smiling to herself, she watched her glimmer float below
She returned to the soil and sat still another morning
As white as snow, she carried her light low and far
She stretched her petals toward the horizon
She was beautiful and pure
The waves only saw her glimmer ripple afloat
I have recently been focusing on beauty. How it’s defined and viewed. Why it is that people aspire for certain looks or qualities and what draws us to those things. Why sometimes the most natural things are labeled as marvels. There’s a magic to creations that are raw as well as objects that exude grandeur.
And when the sun came up and winter left her bare
She smiled knowing she could be just another seedling
Enough of trying to cover it up with hats, straighten it every day to hide the unappealing texture, coloring it repeatedly to match whatever the trend may be, and cutting it only to find that half of it just seems to die regardless. Dedicated to giving my hair some major re-coop time has led me to the biggest dilemma of my daily beauty routine: How to embrace my naturally curly hair.
In this season, I’ve been learning that living for yourself has a different meaning. It’s not grounded in pleasing or satisfying your own values, hopes, or plans; it begins with loving the most important people in your life.
Unpacking my first week in New York and the motivation that a church service gave me to view this chapter in a brighter light. Trying to understand how my life could look in this new chapter.
Who will I want to be? What parts of my dreams will I want to pursue first? What sides of me will I focus on developing? What will I struggle with and what will my mindset be? I’ve had some really good ideas for articles lately as my mind has been racing through all of these questions and i think about the people in my life.
