I wish there was somehow a way to process through the pains rather than burying them to resurrect another day. It feels there is no such thing is healing, merely these numbing techniques of coping.

Where is that fine line between humility and confidence in the truth I must speak? How does one stay grounded, but still remain open-minded? I want to bend and move with the wind, but I still want the earth to grow my roots in. Oh! I am the absolute and the ever-changing. I am the … Continue reading October 27
Transcending with the Dragonflies
By mid-August, we had a lot of dragonflies on the property. I've been attracted to dragonflies for a few years, and I loved seeing them flying around outside my bedroom window this summer. One day I was scrolling through Pinterest and saw a macrame piece that at first glance resembled a dragonfly, but upon closer … Continue reading Transcending with the Dragonflies
Serenity – Be Anxious for Nothing – My New Adventure
Yet again, the God of Redemption transforms my failure into success. Two days ago I worked up a macrame piece and did not start with near enough cord. I was forced to cut the entire piece way shorter than planned and tried making the best of it by fraying the ends, hoping that would help … Continue reading Serenity – Be Anxious for Nothing – My New Adventure

Organizing Clothes using the KonMari Method
I'm FIIINNAALLY getting back to this topic on my blog! For those unfamiliar, earlier this year I was introduced to the KonMari tidying process and began blogging about it. Due to some serious life changes, much of my tidying process, and especially blogging about it, has slowed to a crawl. This post has been in my … Continue reading Organizing Clothes using the KonMari Method
Wrestling with Tradition: Lessons from Fiddler on the Roof
I recently watched Fiddler on the Roof again for the first time in many years. There is so much about this movie that truly moves me, and I was always one lump in the throat away from a sob for this recent viewing. While I've always had a great interest in the story, it's themes … Continue reading Wrestling with Tradition: Lessons from Fiddler on the Roof
Life is Risk
This summer I've been doing a lot of gardening. I've bought lots of flowers and planted lots of seeds, and not all of these flowers and seeds have made it. Some seeds spring up easily, while others refuse to sprout. Children and animals have knocked over some of my planters, losing soil and seed. Our … Continue reading Life is Risk
