Joyful Ruins

Discovering joy in the hard places

Mental Health Heroes

The most courageous moments

happen

behind closed doors

All the work YOU do

choosing to keep going

changing your thoughts

feeling your feelings

Each morning

you wake up

and feed yourself

Every time you choose to walk

The times you’ve spoken love to yourself and others

Every moment

you choose to live

Those make you heroic

and no one but you

sees it

So here I am

acknowledging

every single

behind-the-door

acts of courage

YOU matter to me

YOU matter to the world

So every breath you take

is an act of love

and bravery in motion

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.
