Joyful Ruins

Discovering joy in the hard places

Shadows

The things I fear

they seem to fail

in the light of Your

love

my mind grows dull

Yet I have You

my bones

they ache

still

everlasting arms

they hold me

My heart

it flutters

You live there

My eyes

grow dim

You move there

Your Spirit

breathes

These are but

shadows

real but

not as real

as Your love

for me

I see the world through stories and insights. I have always been a sensitive soul, especially towards nature, people, art, and faith. I spend a lot of time reflecting and finding treasures wherever I can. The two values I live by are beauty and celebration. I hope my blog communicates those two things, seeing beauty where beauty is not often seen and celebrating every aspect of life, the hard and the easy.

An obsessive journaler who loves meeting others along their journey and giving them a hand to hold through pieces of writing. I write about the heartbreaks of life and the joys, the ups and downs, and I often learn my greatest lessons and miracles from nature.
