About Me

Things I love: Family, friends, Crunchy fall leaves, Chocolate covered almonds, fresh laundry, All my little siblings, good books, good music,and laughing so hard your stomach hurts. Things I don't love: Colds that never go away, People who are condescending, and when you forget things. Cold Tangerines: For me when God said when he made the world is a prayer: It is good. this world it is good. the beauty of a perfect green apple is good. I have to remind myself that it is good. It's rebellious, in a way to choose joy, to choose to love your life. It's much easier and more common to be miserable. But I choose to do what I can to create hope, to celebrate life, and the act of celebrating connects me back to that Life I love. What Can I do today that brings more beauty, more energy, more Hope? It is Good. I believe in a life of celebration. I believe that the world we wake up to everyday is filled to the brim with deep,aching love, and also hatred and sadness. And I know which one of those I want to win in the end. I want to celebrate in the face of despair, dance when all we see on the horizon is doom.
