I love the song "You are more" by Tenth Avenue North. So many people beat themselves up over past mistakes. Though we are held responsible for or choices, they do not define us. You are MORE. Just to paraphrase my favorite lines:
You are more than the choices you've made
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes.
You are more than the problems you create.
You've been remade.
Stop living in the shadows. Embrace who God created you to be and move into the light.
Are you where you want to be? Are you who you want to become? It may take a thousand baby steps to get there, but each step is one step closer.It only takes a step to get towards where you want to be. So what are you waiting for? Put one foot in front of the other and find yourself closer to your dream.

Yes, Id love to say that I receive flowers from my husband all the time, but then they would'nt be so special. Just an ordinary day made special with a thoughtful gesture. I never know when they are coming but when it does they always warm my heart and bring a smile to my face.
Make someone's ordinary day special with a thoughtful gesture :)
My goal for this blog is to uplifting and encouraging to others on their journey. Teaching us to see the beauty even in the struggles. Life is messy and complicated and tough. But there is a silver lining around those cloudy days. So much of our journey is not about the destination as much as it is about the ride. keep your eyes open and dont miss that beauty in each day along the way.
There Is beauty in each day. I believe we can find bliss everyday. God has blessed me with an insight and planted such deep joy inside me, I need to share with others. He knows life has many disillusions, disappointments, and discouraging situations. But there is joy to be found. JOY in the journey. I challenge myself and others to find a little bit of BLISS- supreme happiness. utter joy. Gladness, in everyday. Life is such a gift. Why wait for someone, something, some situation to be happy. to be joyful, to be content. CHOOSE to LIVE NOW. Love the life you live. Be grateful, thankful. Laugh. Give. Smile.
