i'll leave you hanging there......or give you a bit of a teaser, because i'm simply too excited! get ready for a new title, a new look & layout, and a new philosophy on all things interior design, culinary arts, fashion styling, typography, graphic design, photography, writing, event planning, and so much more. why hone in on one art when you love so many? i see no good reason.it's true; i'm

i know it has still been a while. and by 'a while' i do mean 'forever' since i've written about many of my thoughts and comings and goings. just know that i desire to--and that desire grows stronger each day, with the more my heart changes; as it falls in and out of love with people and the world, grows in fear and in courage, faith and in doubt, and in what i see of myself.but until i find the

i cannot believe it's been over a year----time flies when you're busy finishing up your college career and hesitantly propelling yourself into the rat-race world of business, quid-pro-quo, and selfish consumerism. with that said, i am hopeful that God has me right where He wants me, and is surrounding me with the inspiration and good people i need to live life on purpose, and create beautiful,

why hello, blogger. i've missed you. i'm sorry that i seem to have given up on you, trading you for other blogs, such as tumblr. i promise to write again soon. well, perhaps i shouldn't promise. but i hope to.and hope is enough.on my comings and goings, my heart's condition (which is self-admittedly often times very ill), and on my aspirations for the future, we have a date very soon.oh no, i'm

recently my heart has been so very heavy. not only have i realized that i mildly suck at motivating myself to do school work (thus my grades are now suffering for it), i also realize that a big part of the reason i have a lack of motivation is because my heart is focused primarily on my ministries. i'm not saying i regret that God has led my heart to what He deems more significant and eternal,

it's been a while. life seems to have gotten the best of me. and shouldn't it? but when this happens, we can either blog irrationally, or wait until we have a minute to breathe and sort out our thoughts in our favorite coffee shop. i've chosen the latter of the two.last night, my soul felt a sense of urgency. i had driven down from school, stopped at my mom's for dinner, (which i scarfed down

today is beautiful. cooler than it has been recently, with a light breeze, and clouds that keep moving at a semi-rapid pace through the sky. i've been at the city river market here in downtown kansas city, and i feel like i'm in another world. i often forget how much i love this city, how much it has to offer, it's luster. i've come to realize i feel safer and more free in a metropolis than i do

for a few days now i've been waiting for the urge to blog, and it came on heavy today. i often sit here, staring at the screen, trying to think of the best words to write, something insightful and profound, something that will bless the soul that the eyes who read this belongs to, but i've come to realize that i want something in my life to be for me. (not to be confused with always about me). so

it's hard to determine a good place to begin. my body is a jumbled mess of thought, exhaustion, confusion, frustration, reminiscing, happiness, and longing, among many other emotions. my head is still full of air and pressure from the many planes i lived on for 2 days, and my body aches from the fever that consumes it. while traveling, especially to third world countries, it is inevitable: you

as i sit here with one of our 3 year old malnourished aids babies literally in my lap, screaming her lungs out to no avail, i write to you all with the hope that God is doing big things in your heart like he is doing in mine. i hope that He asks you to step out of your comfort zone at some point in life, and i hope you are obedient, dispite your fears and the discouragement that will inevitably

i've felt a bit discouraged as of late. nothing too huge, just the sum of many little events that have triggered a bummed out attitude.i can see that God has had such a hand on this trip to Africa thus far, but i think He has recently begun testing my heart and motives, because perhaps they have, at times, fallen out of line with His. i've gotten so caught up in the financial aspect of this that

wow. where do i even begin? the most obvious place would be addressing the amount of money i've raised recently, but i'd rather address all of the people who have helped me in that task. the following are the names of the ladies who stepped-up to help serve God in these fundraising efforts: sheri, anna, melissa, karen, jenny, elizabeth, katie, lexi, karen, katie kozol, mallory, kim, heather,
