You see a beautiful sight in nature, and the first thing you think of doing is posting a pic to Instagram. Something great happens in your life or vice versa, and you have the urge to tweet the details. This is something everyone does, and it is a struggle to unplug and not post it. Social media is a great […]
“Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with Him. For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, He cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over Him.” ~Romans 6:8-9 I was there that day. I saw Him die. I was a terrible thing to see, but people gathered to see. […]
“Never forget the three powerful resources you always have available to you: love, prayer, and forgiveness.” ~H. Jackson Brown, Jr. There are many things that are observed when it comes to National days, weeks, and months. It is fun way for people to celebrate every day of the year in one way or another.

Don’t blink, or you may miss it. Many people don’t even think about it until the week before. Stores hardly promote it.

You know that feeling. The one when you feel so unmotivated to do what you love because you are so tired from life. That is exactly how I felt last week, and I know everyone goes through it. When I get like this, I honestly take a day off from life so I can recuperate. This is what I do […]
“Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.” —Helen Keller I love this quote, and it’s so true. My friends have always teased me that I am a homebody for as long as I can remember. I always laugh when they say this, because it is true that I love being home. Home is where my friends and family are, […]
