| Introduction | I am nearly 30 years old and have lived a life full of tragedy but also full of hope...hope that I often do not see nor recognize. However, it is hope that keeps me here, breathing and putting my feet to the floor each day. It is hope that allows me to keep dreaming for a better tomorrow. It is hope that reminds me that I'm not completely a lost cause nor is the world around me. And that is what this blog is about. It is about my journey from hopelessness to hopefulness, day to day struggles with each and how hoping, even when all hope seems lost, is really my only option. |
| Interests | I am interested in many things: Reading, writing, painting, loving my boxer dog and obsessing over her, volunteering for Hyaets (www.hyaets.org, Living simply and in intentional Christian community with others, being a better more loving wife, being a better daughter and sister and aunt and niece. Bettering myself and healing through time. Al-Anon. |
