This morning while at a stop light I thought "hey, its been a while, I should take a selfie!" like a true millennial, selfies I took! lol. When I got to my destination I began inspecting my pictures-most of which looked exactly the same, but I felt differently about each of them. I mean this … Continue reading stop light selfies.

hi. I’m back. here’s an update.
I've had such a hard time deciding what to write about first, and instead of just choosing something, I've just not written. There's literally so much that has happened since I was last on here, it almost feels wrong to just go right into what I'm learning/doing now. So here are some highlights of what … Continue reading hi. I’m back. here’s an update.
Airports
Airports always make me so emotional. While I love to travel, they're just not my favorite. The more I think about it, I've had to say a lot of heart wrenching goodbyes and they seem to be more memorable than all the wonderful hellos I've gotten to experience at airports. Some of those wonderful hellos … Continue reading Airports
sovereign over me
If I said that my life turned out anything like I thought it would, I would seriously be lying. Just typing this post makes my heart beat so fast that I want to cry. As I signed up for my Summer and Fall courses this morning, my last two semesters of this degree, I couldn't … Continue reading sovereign over me
gaze.
I watched a short video on Facebook where loved ones were asked to stare into each other's eyes for four minutes. What happened in that short amount of time was absolutely incredible. A mother saw her son as a grown man for the first time, sisters were overwhelmed with emotions of being reconnected, a daughter … Continue reading gaze.
sharing on social media: share hope
Remember the days when Facebook was a fun place to "meet up" with friends, stalk your crush (don't even act like you never did that! lol), write on someone's wall to tell them how much you miss them? Remember when it was a place for staying connected with friends who were too far to see … Continue reading sharing on social media: share hope
outfit highlight: Alice
I often find myself laughing about how wrong I was in the direction I thought my life would take and how wrong I was in what I thought I wanted. Of the many blessings that the Lord has so graciously lavished over me, community would have to be one of the areas I feel the … Continue reading outfit highlight: Alice
on politics: where is your heart?
I've found myself joking a lot about how I'm holding off on getting my citizenship until after the elections in case I need to flee back to my home country. But as with anything, the more I joke about it, the more I begin to really ask myself- "where IS your heart in all of … Continue reading on politics: where is your heart?
waging war
If I'm honest, I go through seasons in my life when it feels like I'm constantly at war. Sometimes the war wages against me and sometimes it's against God, all of that in addition to the war between my flesh and my spirit. the past month or so, it's mainly been that I had somehow … Continue reading waging war
enough.
Perhaps you need to hear today that you are enough. To the single girl who is losing all hope and is starting to believe the lie that there's something wrong with you... You are enough. To the woman who won't or is afraid to look in the mirror and tears herself apart... You are enough. … Continue reading enough.
