who we are

                They say most teenagers go through an identity crisis. That they can't figure out who they want to be, but why is it so important to figure out everything right now? Sometimes it is hard to balance all the things you want to be so, given a little space, we can grow these characteristics we desire to be. I want to be seen as someone who is sarcastic, with a dry sense of humor, who doesn't look at the world through rose colored glasses but through a realistic lens, but also who is sweet, and caring, who will give you an honest answer and opinion but who is understanding of situations. I want to be encouraging and someone who is desirable to hang out with, but I don't want to be the sunshine-y, everything-is-great girl who just pretends everything is always good, because it's not. Life sucks on occasion. But you know what? Life keeps going and if you don't keep going with it you're going to be left behind. So stop trying to figure everything out and just embrace life as it happens. The good and the bad. Let all experiences shape and morph you into the person you want to become. God created us all individually to be different - not to be carbon copies of each other. Let Him work everything out and just focus on becoming the you that you were created to be. 



"You'll be too much for some people. Those aren't your people."

"There is nothing in nature that blooms all year long, so don't expect yourself to do so either."

"Admire others' beauty without questioning your own."

"And one day she discovered that she was fierce, and strong and full of fire, and that not even she could hold herself back because her passion burned brighter than her fears."

Let's talk about fear. Fear is not of God. "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind" 2 Timothy 1:7 We need not be afraid when God is on our side. When He is the One fighting for you, you will win! Doubt and fear will try and creep into your mind, and when they do, you need to rid yourself of those thoughts. They are from the devil. Just a little thought I wanted to share tonight. :)

books!

   I love to read. I have always loved a good book and the older I get, the more I fall in love with the classics. My reading has slowed a little here recently, since I've been studying for college CLEP tests, but I continue to always have a book going. :) (I am currently reading Silas Marner by George Eliot.) Anyways, the point of this post is to give a book suggestion/review of one of my *favorites*. It is not considered a classic, like a Jane Austen novel, but it is certainly a classic to me! The King Raven Trilogy - Hood , Scarlet , & Tuck       This series is absolutely incredible. The storyline is based on the legend of Robin Hood, but the details of all of our beloved Robin Hood "facts" have been changed. Robin's name is not Robin but instead Bran (Rhi Bran y Hud, to be exact), the story is set in Wales, and there is no Prince John or Richard the Lionhearted. After reading it in this new light, though, despite everything being changed, this is...
