It has taken me the whole length of writing this blog post to decide on a title. Honestly, this week turned to pot at 11pm on Tuesday night, when my phone decided to de-activate. Thinking that was not the end of the world, I plugged the phone into my laptop, following the "connect to iTunes…
It's here, the new year. While I do prefer to look back on the year on the 31st December, I felt a short review of the year 2018 was in need. And then maybe after I will address deux mille dix-neuf (that's two thousand and nineteen in French, FYI). For those who don't know their bloggers, and…
A constant invitation, that is what He offers us. Maybe that is quite an intense way to begin a blog post, but sometimes we need to be hit with the truth.

So many times a day we betray our wild and wonderful selves in an attempt to blend in—and for what? The greatest joy occurs when we get out of our own way and allow for the unearthing of our unedited soul. -TheGoodTrade Happy Sunday lovelies! A new week begins tomorrow, and after a gorgeous yet rainy…
Wow, it feels like forever since I have contributed some words. But here I am, returned in force to hit you with some Monday mid-afternoon thoughts.
