Joyful Ruins

Discovering joy in the hard places

Emotions

Please don’t fix me

let me feel

My feelings are deep

like the ocean

as colorful as

the flowers of the world

I seek beauty outside myself

and all the time

there’s been beauty within

I long for the colors I see outside

the peacefulness of a trickling stream

When all along

my emotions

bring the same colors

the same sounds

inviting me to know

I am human

and I 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.
