For a very long time, God was someone I felt was real, but was miles and miles away; someone who watched over me but loved only from a distance. I never really understood who God was to the earth besides a supposed loving presence who created everything. I wasn't curious or committed because I simply didn't understand it fully. Eventually this grew into a bit of a spiritual crisis and I became so sick of not ever feeling safe or at home wherever I was. That was the moment I f

The other day, I bought the cutest book titled, How To Be An Explorer Of The World , by Keri Smith. The book is rather simple, filled with activities and quotes to help you view the world in a different, more childlike way and also find ways to help you pay attention to the details of the world. It is absolutely adorable and I was so inspired after only flipping through it for about five minutes. It did however leave me wondering why we so often lose a big chunk of our imagin

My goodness, it sure has been awhile. I've been so busy with my two condensed classes that I felt like I didn't have any time for what I loved. It was awful.

The camera isn't the most professional obviously, but I think it still does its job pretty well. :) Two of these pictures are the roses that we grow in my front yard. They're so

This year has certainly been surreal which is probably an understatement for some people, but for me, I was able to take away something much bigger than my current situation: I found a completely different way of looking at life. During my time at home, I was able to work more on myself and rediscover the things that I value. Because of everything that happened, I stopped taking peoples' presence for granted and I starting treasuring every little interaction that I had with p

A few minutes ago, I was taking a shower. I was looking at myself and absolutely ridiculing how I looked. My skin was too pale, my hair was too thin, my neck was too gawky... the list goes on. Why couldn’t things have just gone right? That was when I realized something about the concept of “right”. It’s completely dependent on where you are and what time it is. For me, it is the year 2020 in America, and the “beautiful” right now is tan and curvy with a sharp jawline and thic
