Joyful Ruins

Discovering joy in the hard places

Humanity or Romance

Beautiful or kind

sometimes

I feel like

I have to choose

Sexy or sensitive

rarely are they synonymous

at least

to others

and in the world of dating

you’re beautiful

as long as you try

as long as you’re quiet

and listen

As long as you text first

as long as you inconvenience yourself

to convenience him

You’re sexy

when you’re not asking for much

if you don’t share your hurt feelings

Romance today

has taken away

our humanity

Our attraction is determind

by how little we want

need

or feel

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.
