What is your self-love language? Have you been practicing self-love lately? I took this quiz to confirm what my self-love language is. I crave quality time. After work and on the weekends unless I’ve made plans for other things, I recharge at home or with my family.

Spirituality vs Religion
Prior to the pandemic, I loved going to church and participating in activities and generally just enjoying the public display of believing. Lockdown and the subsequent freedom of practicing my beliefs in every day without the public displays changed my like and desire for the public displays of beliefs. I found I prefer to keepContinue reading “Spirituality vs Religion”
Be A Light
I was driving home from a friend’s house today, and this was on my playlist of the day. Talk about timely! It reminded me of Matthew 5. “Ye are the light of the world. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light untoContinue reading “Be A Light”
Day 26
Write about a few of your favorite family traditions. In my marriage, family traditions have evolved time and time again. There are a couple of things that have been a constant. We celebrate Three Kings Day. Our tree stays up until January 6th or later. Some years we exchange gifts, some years we take theContinue reading “Day 26”
Day 19
I want to remember I want to remember why I love to read. I was going to be very specific and say: “read scripture” this morning. But, it goes beyond scripture for me on the Sabbath day. I want to remember why I started reading books in general. I distinctly remember it was in thirdContinue reading “Day 19”

Day 5 — Sabbath
My faith has been part of my identity since I was young. I took my first unassisted steps into the arms of missionaries. Sundays in high school were spent in church. That was the day that I would fortify myself to get through the week at school, with the stressors at home, and through theContinue reading “Day 5 — Sabbath”

I’m alive
I was at church today and I was going through the motions. It has been very difficult to compartmentalize all the feelings at church. I can’t share everything that’s going on with everybody at church. There’s too much to share and it’s not just our story to tell. Plus, I honestly don’t know who IContinue reading “I’m alive”
In the Midst
We are knee-deep in the aftermath of the ending of our most recent placement. It is hard. I am tired. I am trying my best to do things and I am doing my best to maintain balance and compartmentalize, and I feel myself failing at that too. I have my annual review at work thisContinue reading “In the Midst”
