Welcome

I am so glad you’re here. This is still very much a work in progress but take a look around and let me know what you think.

I will be sharing my stories of both struggles and victories in this amazing journey of Life! You’ll see how I am trying to improve both my physical and spiritual health. 

I’m a 48 year old woman, married to the love of my life for 30 years and we have raised 3 amazing young men. Two of my boys have left the nest and married their sweethearts. My youngest is still living at home and wants to be a missionary. 

The “perfect” family, right? Nope, not by a long shot. We’ve had our share of struggles and trials through the years. But we have stuck together and we’re here to tell about it. It’s our testimony. Watch the blog for these young people’s testimonies. They each have been through their own troubles and I am sure we can all glean some truths from each other.

Reading through my posts, you will find that my family and my church are the most important people in my life. My faith in God has brought me through a lot of different things which I hope to share here. 

Let’s face it, sometimes life is hard and we need a little bit of encouragement along the way. I hope to be that for you and for you to be that for me. My Pastor says quite often that “We cannot live on an island alone, but God created us to be social beings.” I believe that, we need each other and we can learn from each other. Sometimes we just need to get “real” and we will realize that we aren’t all that different and we’re not in this “all by ourselves”. 

That’s the tough part though, letting others see the real “you”. Not the Facebook status to get lots of likes and comments, not the perfect picture that you pose over and over for, but the person down deep. That person we try to hide by putting on a brave face. So, let’s take off the mask and learn from each other. What do you say?
