An Invitation to Join a Worldwide Fast
Feels a little odd to be posting another rather short blog, but I’d like to invite you all, no matter your faith or denomination, to fast with me tomorrow on Good Friday.
2 Year Anniversary!
Very quick little entry for you today, but it’s for a little celebration here on this website – that of a 2 year anniversary since my first blog post! Seriously, I can’t believe I’ve been at it for 2 years now. Often, I feel like I have a ton of ideas still to get down and posted, but then I look back and realize there’s been a lot of posts already (over 100 actually!)
Receiving Peace During Times of Uncertainty (COVID-19)
Right now I realize is a time of much uncertainty in the world with regard to the recently named pandemic COVID-19 or coronavirus. I think it’s very easy when faced with the unknown to feel anxious, scared, or even depressed. So what is my reason for going into this? Why bring up all of these feelings of anxiety and isolation? Because I wanted to share with you all what GOT RID of them for me today.
Travels: The Bunny Island (Usagishima) – A Cuteness Overdose!

Happy New Year 2020!
Happy New Year 2020 loves! Wow! Another whole year! I wanted to share a rather different thought that came into my mind via way of another’s Instagram post with the caption: “2019年もありがとう!” or “Thank you, 2019!”
Thoughts This Christmas Season
I always feel that Christmas and the holidays during December are interesting – because they’re filled with a “mixed bag” of feelings, and quite often, I tend to hear more about the negatives. So the question to me becomes this: Why do we celebrate Christmas?
Happy Thanksgiving 2019!
Another year is coming up on a close soon, but perhaps that’s one of the reasons I enjoy Thanksgiving so much – it’s a great time of year to reflect on all the joys the year has brought. Sometimes years bring struggles and hardships, but I often find upon reflection, that believe it or not, I am grateful for those as I am the joys too.
Happy Halloween 2019!
Very quick little note to wish you all a Happy Halloween 2019! I hope you are all able to experience and enjoy this fun holiday with good friends and sweet things (and maybe a few surprising tricks too!). Dress up a little crazy, be someone else for a few hours, and remember that life can indeed be fun too.
