Breaking

To follow in Job's "curse the day I was born" footsteps...

I wish I had never met you.

My heart hurts more than it ever has before.

It is unbearable.

You wrecked me.
You walked away and took everything.

I don't know who I am anymore.
I want to forget you.

And I love you.

In this dark, lonely night...

I just want to feel beautiful again.

Outfit of the Day

A little hipster, a little glam, a little casual.  All me.

 

Priorities

You get home from vacation and what is the first thing you do?

Plant your new succulents and cacti with your little friend, of course!

This is my therapy.

 

Movement through Grief

 movement through grief in one week's time.

 

What do I know about my heart?

It will heal. It will love again.

 

I am nowhere near healed, but that healing has begun.

A Sacred Sorrow

"The degree to which I am willing to enter into the suffering of another person reveals the level of my commitment and love for them.  If I am not interested in your hurts, I am not really interested in you.  Neither am I willing to suffer to know you nor to be known by you."

"How can we speak to the suffering and poor if we do not learn their language, the language of lament?... Until we learn to lament, we have nothing to say to most of the world."

You Do You

This is a reminder to me that I can't be anyone except who God has created me to be.
