    Playing in Puddles

    They say healing is not linear, and my journey has been proof. There are places in my life where her (ex wife) influence is still felt, how those memories and traumas impact the way I move in life… Some thoughts I had today as I examined my prospects and thoughts on dating, and how it is clear to me that I still haven’t reached that place where I was once a brave soul. Ready to indulge in the excitement of a new love… I only play in shallow water… I’m still not ready to dive back into the ocean.I don’t trust my ability to handle the rush of being pulled…

    Busy Mind, Full Heart

    Hello Hello, long time no post. I won’t go on about why I have been away, but I will say that I have had a lot to process and move through in the time off. I’ve been writing a lot lately, there’s been an abundance of thoughts swirling through my mind the past several months, and while I have content to offer, I should mention that the current passages I’ve penned are a bit different from the posts I’ve brought to you previously. A lot has been taking place in my world, and recently something devastating has come into my realm that’s really shook me up (I’ll likely have a…

    Angels Exist [I’ve Even Seen Some Sleep]

    Hello, hello! Here we are again after a long stint away. I’ve resigned to the fact that this just seems to be the ebb and the flow, and now it’s time to let it flow… So here we go 🙂 I’m gonna tell you a story that started about 16 years ago. I was 17 years old and my world would be flipped around every which direction, but amidst the chaos I would be gifted the presence of a soul who would change the course of my life.  We met the day after my 17th birthday, and on February 4th I would forever remember the sweet handsome face that greeted…

    Returning to the Kitchen

    Hello loves! Thank you for returning! Hoping all is well out there! <3 So I ended up taking a week off, totally by accident, but sometimes you just end up getting exactly what you need. And I think I needed that time to put my focus into other things, but here we are, and here you are! For that I’m always so incredibly thankful. So this entry is all about a love I never realized I had within, a hobby and “career” of sorts that I discovered is much deeper embedded in me than I had ever realized before. This is all about my love for kitchen work, and how…

    Hi there! Thanks for stopping in! I hope this entry finds you well 🙂 I’m a bit excited that I’ve found myself on a little bit of a writing binge! It’s definitely been a good while since I’ve had the urge to write as much as I’ve had in the last month. I feel like a major energy shift has graced me, and the once blocked creative flow has been released to carry these expressions out from my brain into the real world in whatever form they choose to take. In a short 10 days I’ve drafted 3 different entries and hope to edit and schedule them very soon. Hopefully…

    Unearthing

    Hello friends! Hoping everyone is well! In case I haven’t mentioned it enough, I just want to start this entry with saying how thankful I am for the eyes who become my ears for these long winded rants. It never ceases to amaze me the chats I have over entries I’ve made, I’m always surprised and so very appreciative that those around me take the time. So I’ll say again and certainly not for the last time, thank you so much for lending me your time and attention. This form of expression and reaching out has been beneficial to me in many ways, and saying “thanks” never feels like enough. …

    6 Weeks to Live

    Hello hello! I hope all is going well out there with whoever is reading this entry 🙂 Before I get started, I wanted to address the title of this entry. I hope it isn’t found to be insensitive, my intentions aren’t to upset anyone who’s heard these words themselves. My choice of words is mostly metaphorical, but there was a time they felt quite literal to me. I don’t in any way want to scare or trigger anyone, and I hope it’s understood why these words fit better than any. With that said, let me further explain. I wrote this entry some time in early April. I had been filtering…
