Though I cannot say exactly why..


            Today I had a very interesting discussion about the art of being a trophy wife. The following quote about a young woman, that has expressed her desire to become a trophy wife, resulted:
“She has about as much ambition as a snail.”
“And not even an ambitious snail.”
“She just wants to leave a trail of slime behind her and slowly but surely go nowhere.”
            The moral of the story is: Have a little ambition, regardless of how you would like your life to turn out. Setting goals and working hard towards the passion God has given you is much more flattering than waiting for “the perfect man.” If you are single at the moment, God has a reason for it. Glorify God in your singleness, and don’t waste all the amazing things this time can do for your spirit.

Let's get goin'


So, it has been quite sometime since I’ve written a blog, I realize.  It’s not that I’ve been “too busy” or “too lazy” or whatever other excuses people give when they make a commitment and don’t stick to it. In the past, I’ve always been the girl that has had an opinion about everything. I put in my thoughts on every situation regardless of if it was my business or if I even had valid thoughts on the matter. As far as growing up and maturing has gone, this is one thing I tried to change about myself. I have, to a certain extent. I hold my tongue much more often now, and it has only yielded good things. The only thing is, it has made me feel as though my blog, and other writings, are trite. I feel like my blogs must be this grandiose presentation of wit and charm. I have decided that this should not be the case. If no one reads it, it is fine. I want to write as a way to remember certain things and feelings. So the following blogs may be very short or not. It doesn’t particularly matter either way. I just want to start writing again.
For those of you that are wondering about school, it is fantastic. I’m finally getting to the point where I know my craft well enough to be creative. I have started shadowing at an incredible salon that has done nothing less than lift my spirits, spark imagination, and broadened my knowledge. God has most certainly blessed me beyond anything I could ever imagine. I have much more to write about but it will be headed your way in smaller installments soon. For now..
Love, Grace, and Peace,
