  • Hey you! Yea..the Woman in the Mirror!

    https://jooinn.com/img/get Wouldn’t it be nice to wake up each day and say to yourself “I love you girl!”… Many of us don’t do that do we? We wake up sleepy eyed, yawning, sometimes grumpy from restless sleep, with a thousand thoughts running through our minds of the day or days before. People, places, things, etc.… Continue reading

  • New Clothes

    Often times we don’t understand what it’s like to wear ‘new clothes’ in a spiritual sense. Many of us know that in a physical sense, new clothing can take on various meaning, both good and bad. For instance, when I used to work at a massage parlor in my late teens, after a friend’s mom… Continue reading

  • Fearfully & Wonderfully Made

    In any Christian bookstore you can find the verse (or at least part of it) Psalm 139:14 “I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.” I wonder though, how many of us have actually stopped and really thought about what that verse means. Sure… Continue reading

At first I thought my mom was just mistaken when she said she had found my organizer as… Continue reading

  • They say addiction changes you…believe them when they do!

    My entire life people always said “Don’t do drugs”! Sure okay. Practice what you preach was what I always thought. It was a “do as I say not as I do” world that I grew up in. Born to addict parents, raised in a home where it was normal, and well it was what it… Continue reading

  • The Glass Vase Effect

    I have been thinking for a while about how many people refer to us survivor’s as broken and shattered. How we are viewed as insignificant or that we need stitching or gluing back together by individuals with good hearts but lack of education and experience. The rose colored glasses are still on because in an… Continue reading

  • Lost in the sauce!

    I came across this meme when I was working on this post and thought it was a rather good depiction on what I wanted this to convey for our every day lives, even the things we have been through. “Lost in the sauce” is such a popular term these days but it has a deeper… Continue reading

  • Stop Biting the Poisoned Apple

    When Eve bit of the fruit in the Garden of Eden, it was good! So what did she do? Duh!  What any woman would have! She shared it with her husband of course! Hence the epic fall of man! The epitome of sin! Going against the first commandment! Don’t eat the stinking fruit from just… Continue reading
