Marinating...

I've had more amazing conversations in the last week than I have in a long time.  I'm so thankful to know people who love having deep, thoughtful and 7,000 word conversations because I love having deep, thoughtful and 7.000 word conversations!


Some of what I've been marinating on....


Life is too short to live pretend. When we finally give up pretenses and the façade of perfection we are free to figure out who we really are.


Who we are matters....not what others know us as...but who we are at our core...who are you?


Secrets always lead to problems.  Whether they are secrets we are keeping from others or secrets we are keeping from ourselves.


There is nothing like worshipping God in song with full abandon and praising His name


Laughing is imperative.


A big hug from someone who cares about you can change your entire mood.


You are more than your fears and mistakes.


Sometimes we go back to the same ol mess because it's comfortable...it can be hard to figure out how to clean out our junk.


Appreciate the people you love. Let them know daily because tomorrow is not promised.


Sometimes writing is as much for the writer as it is for the reader.


That's what I got today.
