Peace Rocks

I believe this to be the first of many rock words I create.

Live. Love. Laugh. Embrace.

The me God sees

Image
  Letting go of the me I say I am so God can show me the me he sees. Letting go of who I was before so God will reveal who I am now. Inching my way toward knowing. Inching my way to understand. I feel a new path being paved. Though my body screams with anxiety, I push on. I push on to see the me that God sees.

An artist

I often ponder things that seem to have a theme.  One thing is when someone says " I am not artistic/creative" or "I wish I was artistic/creative ".  These statements project that one needs to be good to be artistic and I don't believe that to be true.  Today I was crabby for no good reason and I tried to snap out of it and it just kept returning and I realized I was missing something: creative time.
