A Voice

I started this blog 2 years ago because I felt like I was to use it to be a voice to those who would stumble upon it.

A lot has happened in those 2 years.  There have been ups.  There have been downs.  I've shared pieces of my journey on this blog, but in May I lost my inspiration.  I lost my passion.  I slowly stopped writing.  I would continously think of new posts to write, but it seemed like so much effort to take those thoughts and turn them into something that made sense.  I contimplated giving up blogging entirely.  I almost closed my blog from the public...but I couldn't bring myself to do it.  Even though I had lost my inspiration for why I was blogging, I knew deep down inside that I wasn't to stop forever.  It was only for a season. 

For the last month or so I've started up new blog posts, to get back into the blogging world, but I didn't finish them.  I felt like I didn't have anything important to say.  I felt like my voice was gone.  Tonight my mom reminded me that I do have a voice.  I may not be great at public speaking.  I may be awkward at starting up a conversation.  I may have a hard time opening up to others.  Yet, despite all the things I'm not good at, I do have a voice.  I find it easier to communicate on paper than in person.  It's just who I am. 

So, I'm not going to close down my blog.  I've decided to begin sharing again.  I'm opening up my life again.  It's time to blossom, not hide. 

I invite you to join me on my life's journey!

Power of Life or Death

It has been forever since I have written a blog post.  I need to get back into it, and get caught up on where I left off, but tonight I just have one thing to say.

Proverbs 18:21 from the Message...

"Words kill, words give life;
they're either poison or fruit—you choose."


Watch what you say...because if you don't, the words that come out of your mouth can truly kill.  They can be the poison that destroys someone's dream...and I have all to well seen the results of this...
