Happy 2020!! I don’t think I’ve ever been more ready for a new year in my life. I needed a new start. And although I know I can create a new start any time of the year, 2020 seemed like a perfect opportunity. It’s a new decade, a new year - the perfect opportunity to [...]
“I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.” Romans 8:18 This verse has meant more than the world to me since my sophomore year in high school; it’s my verse. Every season I go through, though, this verse has a different meaning to me. [...]
It’s been almost a year since my last super vulnerable blog post so I felt like maybe it was time to open up again. This post may be a mess, but bear with me. Trigger warning: self harm, suicide I’ve only felt suicidal once, and it was one of my lowest nights.. ever. This was [...]
A journal entry from 9/25/18 at 4:43 p.m. ; sitting by the window in a coffee shop that's full of sounds of laughter & the click of laptop keys, sipping slowly on a latte tasting of honeysuckle & lavender, thinking of my years & the goodness I’ve been given: This Too Shall Pass.. Years ago, [...]
(trigger warning: self-harm) It’s been wayyyyy too long since I’ve sat down and typed out what I’m feelin’, so I decided it was time. Today I’m feeling grateful, happy, excited, and nervous all at once. The reason this post has taken me so long to write is because it’s a lot for me to digest [...]

This is a short post, but I just wanted to get some thoughts down: I have been LOVING simplicity recently. I wear black & white clothing almost exclusively ..... & I’ll occasionally throw in a beige or brown of some sort to spice things up. But the simplicity of the black & white combo is [...]
This is one for my fellow seniors out there. Recently, a friend(you know who you are, girl) showed me the song Rivers and Roads by The Head and the Heart. The first few lines of that song make me feel sad, yet excited for the future at the same time. "All our friends will [...]
HELLOOOOO!!!! I'm back & betta than eva! I have been on a sort of hiatus, if you will, from blogging. I felt unhappy & dissatisfied with the content ideas that were coming to mind to post & I felt discouraged. Recently, my fire and inspiration came back & I decided to transform this space into [...]
God was calling me to peace tonight. I have been very anxious recently, about everything from school to just life in general. My mind wouldn't allow peace and serenity to enter, although I wanted it to. God's peace finally washed over me tonight in a way that is almost impossible to explain. It's almost like [...]
