| Introduction | I have changed quite a bit since I first began this blog. Life brought ups and downs and a long pause to this blog. Cancer added to the struggles in our lives. When I first began, I thought that focusing on the good, pure, and lovely things meant for me to ignore or "get over" things that caused me pain. After years of life lessons, I see that the hardest things in life often bring beauty. Suffering helps me understand, and pain teaches me to appreciate the good moments even more. My blogging looks a little different now as I see that every life comes with a level of suffering and that I can only see the beauty in it once I work through my own hurts. This is my journet to become better and encourage others along the way. May it bless anyone who stops here. |

You can whistle and steam can whistle, so why do you sing in the shower?
Because the steam brings the song out of my heart! (And I don't like soapy water in my mouth, I've tried whistling in the shower - shampoo water is gross. It's complicated!)
