Note to self:

Stop ignoring His will.

Recently, I learned this lesson the hard way. I've been one, in my 23 years of life to often go against the status quo. I ignore the signs, I push away the intuitions and I get hurt OR I hurt somebody else in the process. So today, I'm moving forward. I'm going to stop ignoring God's will for my life and follow His plan; whatever that may be. I know God's plans for my life are limitless and he sees the big, while I often see the little-- so I'm trusting in Him. 


Here's getting back on track to a life of unwavering faith. 

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future" Jeremiah 29:11

God > Everything 

Boots, boots, boots!

Better shine up my  boots! I'm heading to Nashville this weekend for the CMT Music Festival! I can't wait! 

Nashville, you still have part of my heart. 

Happy Thursday.

It's the Little Things

I'm not a big fan of chain e-mails and rarely will I read it if I see a FWD: next to it. But this one, I couldn't pass up. It was entitled, "The Little Things." And as a firm believer in TIMING and the cliche quote, "what's meant to be, will be" I had to read it... and I'm so glad I did. 

As you might remember, the CEO of a company survived
9/11  because his son started kindergarten.

Another fellow was alive because it was
His turn to bring donuts.

One woman was late because her
Alarm clock didn't go off in time.

One was late because of being stuck on the NJ Turnpike
Because of an auto accident.

One of them
Missed his bus.

One spilled food on her clothes and had to take
Time to change.

One's
Car wouldn't start.

One couldn't
Get a taxi.

The one that struck me was the man
Who put on a new pair of shoes that morning,
Took the various means to get to work
But before he got there, he developed
a blister on his foot.

He stopped at a drugstore to buy a Band-Aid.
That is why he is alive today..

Now when I am
Stuck in traffic ,
Miss an elevator,
Turn back to answer a ringing telephone ...

All the little things that annoy me.
I think to myself,
This is exactly where
God wants me to be
At this very moment..

Next time your morning seems to be
Going wrong ,

You can't seem to find the car keys,
You hit every traffic light,
Don't get mad or frustrated;
It May be just that
God is at work watching over you.


So, may God continue to bless you
With all those annoying little things
And may you remember their possible purpose.


Tomorrow, I encourage you to embrace whatever life throws your way. Untied shoelaces or missing the EL you ran a block to catch-- Bring it on, life (-:




O' and to the random man who paid me one of the sweetest compliments today, thank you-- more men should be like YOU.

Pretty sure my life is channeling a Taylor Swift album with a twist of Katy Perry
