Has the urge of wanderlust ever hit you really hard one day, and all you want to do is pack a suitcase and go? Does that ever happen to you? It sure happens to me. A lot. You get a feeling deep down in your soul and you just want to run away and explore around the world. Yep, that definitely happens to me. Even though spontaneity is healthy and good for the soul every now and then, let's not let ourselves grow naive to forget the behind-the-scenes of adventure. "Jobs fill your pocket. ...
Comfortable & Classic
Yesterday was the most gorgeous day of the year yet. It was around 82 degrees and had the most perfect breeze. Simply splendid. Since it was absolutely perfect out yesterday, I decided it'd be a good day to showcase one of my most recent favorite outfits. I haven't done a style post in quite some time, but I am looking forward to working in style posts to be a regular topic on my blog. The outfit I'm sharing with you today is super simple, comfortable and classic. I chose a very casual top ...
CWS Happenings // Vol. 5
Oh hey, it's Monday! Since it's the start of another month, I'll be sharing some of what happened in April in case you missed anything and would like to get caught up. Life has been a strange roller coaster lately. I have been overwhelmed and stressed all month long, and to be honest, I have been really down. But I am grateful that even in this storm, God remains fixed and sure, always calling me to peace. As you've probably noticed already, I have redesigned my site! I finally found time ...
Do What’s Best For You
I know the title of this post can be a little stand-offish, but I promise this is not a post encouraging selfishness or anything of the like. Instead, this post is about the healthy reminder that sometimes you have nothing to do, but be good to yourself and do what's best for you. I have always felt like a walking contradiction. I have always been the "go with the flow" type person, but at the same time, I have always been bold and stood my ground when I needed to. It's hard to explain, ...
The Importance Of A Sabbath // A Guest Post
Hello, everyone! I’m Crystal and I blog over at Dreams, etc. I’m really excited to be here today! I work at a small, urban elementary school and two weeks ago we had spring break. A coworker and I had been sharing vague dreams; I wanted to take a train and go to Montana. She wanted to see mountains and lakes. And it just so happens that Montana has mountains and lakes. One day in February, we decided to take advantage of the week off. We booked train tickets to Whitefish, which is a town ...
He Gives Us Peace
I do this thing where I suppress the stress that I'm dealing with to the back of my mind. I try to forget about certain stressors in my life and think that if I ignore them, they'll somehow just go away. Well, that's usually never the case. You'd think I have learned by now. When I carry around stress on my shoulders, it causes me to be anything but at ease with myself and my situations. It gets heavy and awkward, and sometimes I become more stressed because I'm upset that I'm stressed in the ...
