Keeping it Real

From the heart

Chose the word “Acceptance” for my yearly word

Very timely as my best friend is at the end of his life (dog)

My home took significant damage from a tornado last week

A friend of the family passed away

All this in the last week

…and a dozen other things that don’t need to be mentioned

Acceptance has been a great mantra

Feeling all the feelings. Accepting this season of life while navigating it with integrity.

While my outside world looks to be falling a part

My soul has found rest in the Lord

All is well, all is well

My family is closer than ever.

Our faith is stronger than ever.

When we peel it back there’s too many blessings to count

I’ve sat in thought questioning… if I’m closer to the Lord…. If my family unit is stronger than ever. If the blessings in our life is unmeasurable… how could I complain? Is it really “that bad?”

This does not mean to suppress emotion. I’m feeling deeply in the privacy of my own spaces. More so, its perspective. It’s acceptance for this season of life.

I’m finding joy in the details.

I’m finding myself more present and intentional with my time and actions

-With Love
