There is a story behind the quoted words. We are all on our own journey in life, not knowing what is to come.
This day, my family and I went on a 9 mile roundtrip hike on Labor Day. Leading up to our adventure, doubt settled in my mind after words spoken by someone else. They were uncertain if I would be able to make the trek out and back.
The greatest concern were the boulder fields with large rocks, crossing water and navigating safely without injury out and back.
My pace is slower than my family members. Needless to say I get a lot of rear view pictures when hiking with them. Anyway, they get well ahead of me, far off in the distance. This provided an opportunity for God and I to have some quality time together.
At the moment this picture was taken, I did not know what lay before me. Whatever was beyond the ridge, which I was unable to see, I knew God would provide, give me the encouragement and strength to see me out and back.
No doubt this was God reminding me I have all that is needed to get me through in this life. Having the right mindset is key to achieving more than you ever think is possible!
Hello and welcome,
I am so glad we have crossed paths!
It’s no accident you are here!
Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by, notice and read.
As a wife, mother, grandmother, teacher (and so much more), I see the world through my lens. From the way I was raised, to every experience, moment, and circumstance in life, has shaped the way I think and see the world.
For several years now, I have been walking more closely with God, getting to know Him, how He speaks to me and through me. He has given me the ability to write, a way to express how I am feeling and what I am going through. This has been a beautiful, crazy kind of journey where much healing is taking place. A time where I need to offer myself up some grace and appreciate the hard work, dedication, and commitment to creating a better version of myself.
I am learning how to work through and release old trauma, healing, shedding old layers of myself, accepting and embracing my true and authentic self. Getting to know the new me has been quite foreign, especially when the old wants to cling to what is familiar, old habits and mindsets.
Writing has been my saving grace (and photography is right up there too). An outlet, a way to release, a way to pause, reflect and see there is more than what my mind is leading me to believe. God’s word, His voice is there. When I keep Him first, above all things, I’ve realized things work out for my greater good, my higher purpose.
I hope you enjoy and find words of wisdom you can relate to!
