In a dream
There
She sat
On
The driver’s side
Backseat
Not knowing
Where
She was going
She looked
Out the window
Her reflection
She
Did see
A woman
Who
Has aged
Golden years
Beyond
Her prime
At first
The young woman
Was
Startled
Taken back
By
Her reflection
In
The window
A much older
Woman
She did see
Staring back
At her
With
The grace
God gave her
Nobody
Could deny
What
She was feeling
On
The inside
She embraced
The moment
Smiled
Knowing
The reflection
Of
The older woman
Would
Soon be her
Someday

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!
