I try to love Jesus and myself.

Dear Everyone,

I try really hard to make you all think i'm amazing. when, really, i'm just a girl, who loves life a whole lot even though she has no idea what she's doing. Who's trying to exist in a world that broke her heart, and just wants to do the best she can and is sometimes funny. She's clumsy, her heart is on her sleeve and she doesn't quite know what to make of most things. She believes in the power of Jesus, she believes in kindred spirits, and soul mates and community and a tribe of people who will chase you if you leave.  She believes in love that is worth writing about, and late night heart to hearts and telling everyone exactly how you feel. She believes in traditions and story telling and front porch sitting and helping people move. She is passionate about life around the kitchen table, and misses those sweet moments of last summer that happened around the table. She hopes that someday she'll figure it all out, and that she'll make her people proud. She's doesn't try to be, but sometimes she's a pill. She loves hard. She plays hard, and she laughs hard. she loves the sound of summer and the smell of fall and her friends and family with all that's in her. 

So, my apologies. i'm not amazing, i'm actually just really lost but enjoying the adventure of being found a lot.
