I did a thing last night. It might be crazy. It may be a little arrogant? It takes a lot of arrogance to be an artist, or at least that's what I tell myself so I won't hide all of my work under a rock. Yes, this writing of mine is a conscious decision in... Continue Reading →
My Worst Nightmare
I had every writers worst nightmare happen to me today. I got a good look at everything I don't have. I don't have writing credits, I don't have many connections, I don't have time, I don't have so many things it hurts. I posted my own rec post, but I don't know that it's really... Continue Reading →
We are a Resurrection People, and Hallelujah is our Song
Yesterday, I had an awful experience at Church. I wrote about it in another post, but there is one problem with the post about one instance. It is not just this one church, or this one type of incident. I have been treated this way over and over and over again at different times throughout... Continue Reading →
Jesus Did Not Suffer Joyfully
Lately, I have been screaming inside, pretty much all day every day, because I am having a hard time, and I am being honest about it. Over and over again I see the weary faces of everyone around me. I don't blame them for being sick of hearing it. I'm sick of hearing my own... Continue Reading →

Tuesday of Holy Week: Notre Dame Still Stands
I have seen pictures now. The Church still stands. It may not technically be a miracle because it wasn't actually burned down to the ground, and I don't even know how bad it got, but as far as I knew, it was a total loss. In my life, it is a miracle that Notre Dame... Continue Reading →
Embrace Your Cross
"Eloi, Eloi, Lama Sabbactani My God, My God, why have you abandoned me?" My God, My God, why did you abandon me? I gave You everything. No matter how hard everything was. I gave You my childhood. I gave you the feeling of being invincible that I never got to feel. I gave You my... Continue Reading →
First Impressions: Pope Benedict’s Letter about the Church Scandals
Ok, if you're reading this, remember this is my first impressions upon reading only part of the letter, I'll write again when I actually get to read the whole thing. I have to admit all I want to do is roll my eyes so far. Seriously, just blame the whole thing on artists and the... Continue Reading →
The Problem with Gazelle Intensity
I should begin this with letting you know we are a low income family with a lot of big graces from God and our family right now. We are rich in so many ways, but when it comes to money, we are in a hard season. A few weeks ago, I was feeling guilty over... Continue Reading →
