I wanted to share this little piece I came across. It’s one of those things that makes you go “hmm…” It compares life to a train ride, and honestly, it made me think about who’s been part of my journey, who still is, and how I want to spend the time I have. It’s called…

Ah, life! It’s one big adventure, full of twists, turns, and roadblocks—kind of like one of our challenging hikes. Ha! But honestly, there have been times on this journey when I’ve felt like I’m stuck on a steep climb, wishing for an opportunity that seems beyond my reach. But then, out of nowhere, just when…

I don’t think I’ll ever fully understand God’s plan. At least not while I’m mortal. It’s kind of like trying to assemble IKEA furniture without the instructions—confusing, frustrating, and at times, overwhelming. There’s so much suffering and so many good people who don’t deserve it, and no clear answers. It messes with your faith, you…

Every time I glance at a photo of my parents, I see the word “sacrifice” written all over it. And I wonder, how can sacrifice look so happy? There was a time when my husband and I thought “sacrifice” was a scary, bad word. We watched our parents give up so much for us, and…

The gazillion emails, deadlines, and tasks that seem to multiply every time I check one off can all get pretty overwhelming….

Yesterday was Ash Wednesday, kicking off Lent for many Christians. It’s a time to slow down, reflect, and focus on growth as we get ready for Easter. Getting ashes on my forehead always reminds me that we’re just passing through. The phrase “Remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return” might sound…

Migraines are such a pain in my… brain. They literally leave you feeling useless. I can’t function when I have one, and sleep is out of the question too. So, here I am, typing away while my brain tries to convince me that I’m worthless. That said, it’s moments like these that remind me how…

I’ve always prided myself on being the patient one. Unshakable calm. A Zen master. Seriously, I could wait forever—whether it was for a delayed flight or for a friend to finish telling me their entire life story (and I mean every detail). Patience’s been my superpower. But lately I’ve noticed my patience isn’t what it…
