I've been keeping journals since I was in the 3rd grade and I'm so glad to share some of my most intimate life moments with you here!  Here, you'll find inspirational and encouraging stories of me and other broken people like me. We are all jars of clay who have been afflicted in every way, but not crushed...struck down by not destroyed.  Here, you do NOT have the right to remain silent, so as you read, grab your favorite snack and drink and leave a comment...share YOUR story. I can't wait to connect with you in this beautiful safe space. 

welcome to my

journal!

Growing up a military brat and working for U.S. Air Force has engrained quite a few habits into my life.  Whenever we’re preparing for something big, we always have a ‘briefing’ and with everyone gathered, we talk about the latest updates — things that would affect our jobs that day and so many other things….Because […]
