Happy New Year!! ❤
It's been a light and fun day connecting with God + friends + family + audiobooks and eating some great food!
Friends, this will be my first and last blog post for 2026.
Famous last words, I know, but I'm going to try to stick to that.
For lots of reasons, I believe this is the right season for me to let this go (taking it down on 1-7-25).
To put my considerable writing energy into a memoir book.
To take a deep breath and trust that the world will go right on spinning and my single life will still have value even if every moment and decision ahead is not witnessed or publicly documented.
To recognize that this has typically been a one-sided conversation that built a false sense of intimacy for me - the strong relationships and Kingdom purpose I desire will not be achieved here.
To stop performing or feeling pressure to live up to a certain image based on the expectations of others or of past versions of myself. To release people from any pressure to prove they care for me by reading this content; to free myself from unfair judgement and unnecessary pain or insecurity.
To keep growing and healing and to live with more freedom based on my values, beliefs, and desires today at age 41... not feeling boxed in by the viewpoints and hopes I sincerely expressed here at age 24 or 33 or 38.
We can do hard things.
THANK YOU for being here with and for me through the past 15+ years.
It mattered to me very deeply.
It mattered to me very deeply.
For one last time here, I love you and believe in you, and I’m confident God has wonderful things ahead for each of us, and the best is yet to come!!
❤ ❤ ❤
