Joining in with The Circle to share my word of 2016 collage.


May this serve as a visual reminder for this year to motivate me towards Victory. Honestly I haven't been doing so great with it and am considering changing it....who knows, we will see.  In the mean time I will continue to bravely open my arms to victory so that it can envelop me in its embrace.

Peace. Love. Surety.

7 Things I'm grateful for in week01 of 2016

• A beautiful free public park.
• The fact that I don't have to drive super long distances or pay to go to the beach.
• The fact that one of my best friends has found her happily ever after type love AND is going to marry him.
• Meeting a sweet five year old boy who reminded me to remember to hug gently even though tight hugs are fun and who, after saying he wanted to take a picture with me looked at it and said 'oh waw you're bee-ew-tee-foo'
• Blessings of last year that will keep their hand prints on my career forever.
• Strange friends in distant lands who remind me in moments of doubt that I am worth so much more than I can remember at once.
• A good sermon.

Was the first week good to you, were you good to it?

Peace. Love. Gratulation. 

My 2016 Reading List

I actually have no books on my list that I feel pressed to read. I've read so much off my reading list during 2015 that 2016 is now drawing a blank. In thinking about it, I promised myself that I would read more mystery novels but now I'm not so such sure how I feel about the idea... So this us a tentative list. We'll see how it goes!

• An Abundance of Kathrines
• The Perks of Being a Wallflower
•  The Power of Seduction
•  The Art of War
•  Murder on the Orient Express
•  The Girl on the Train
•  Wild
•  The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo
•  Mansfield Park
•  The Bluest Eye
•  Their Eyes Were Watching God
•   Warrior of Light
•   Make It Happen 
•   Big Magic 

 A Few Maybes
Its Kind of a Funny Story
I Let You Go



Have you any suggestions for me??

Peace. Love. Literature.
