When you look in the mirror, what do you see? Who is the person staring back at you? I used to cry in my bed, late at night and unable to sleep, over how horrible and ugly I thought I was, and how I longed to be literally anyone else. I used to weep because … Continue reading Writing Truth On Your Arms {Guest Post}
2020 Fall Bucket List
Today marks the beginning of fall! Fall is my favorite season of the whole year. The air is crisp and has a little chill to it. Festive smells of pumpkin, cinnamon, and allspice candles mingle with the smokey goodness of warm fires in the hearth. The world comes alive with the brilliance of stunning reds, … Continue reading 2020 Fall Bucket List
Who I Am
I was scanning through old unpublished blog posts earlier, and I came across one that I had written sometime in the middle of 2019. In it, I had three bullet points. #1: I’m imperfect. #2: I’m ashamed. #3: Wondering where it left me. Honestly, I was out of hope, out of answers and just plain … Continue reading Who I Am

The first … Continue reading Stuffed Cookies/Writing Update/Awards
Every Life Matters
I believe full heartedly that life begins at the moment of conception. The moment a child is conceived, a human being has been added to the world. I don’t agree with people who say that it is simply a mass of cells until it reaches a certain point, and then it can be considered a … Continue reading Every Life Matters

Lessons From A Procrastinator
Hey guys, I should be working on something productive at this moment. I have a nice long to-do list that includes a lot of cleaning. You know, I really could be a clean freak if I wanted to be.

Random Life Update: August
August started with a bang. Quite literally, actually. We were eating lunch one afternoon and Dovid was attempting to walk from one chair to another. Well. He missed. He fell.

Wishing For Words
More often than not, I feel really helpless. I look around me and see so much pain painted everywhere. I see it in the eyes of strangers that pass me in the store. I feel it in the downcast gaze or the lack of words from a family member. I hear it booming through unspoken … Continue reading Wishing For Words
Home (Part 2 of 2)
Kara squirmed. The pew was hard and rigid, but that wasn’t the main reason that she was uncomfortable. She glanced nervously around the sanctuary and tugged at the top of her shirt. It wasn’t that she disliked church. It was just the awkwardness that she didn’t enjoy. She had spent way too many Sunday afternoons … Continue reading Home (Part 2 of 2)
Home (Part 1 of 2)
The smell of bacon hung heavy in the air. Kara breathed in deeply and a smile spread over her acne-ridden face. She slid into her chair, ignoring the chocolate handprints and the unidentifiable smears that covered the wooden seat. Kara grabbed a piece of homemade sourdough bread and layered it with juicy slices of tomato, … Continue reading Home (Part 1 of 2)
