Joyful Ruins

Discovering joy in the hard places

Body

I listen to my body

its fears

that I will

abandon it

forgetting that

this mind

and soul

live inside

flesh

As my

body works

giving me

breath

heart

food

I live unaware

ungrateful

In the moments

when I pause

I listen

my body

listens too

mind and soul

and body

attuned

there is a calm

as all of me

sees

all of 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.
