Joyful Ruins

Discovering joy in the hard places

Surviving is me too

The survivor me

is still me

She still shows up

when she is needed

through tough work days

and sickness

She takes care of me

I don’t want to disconnect from her

even though she reminds me of

my worst times

She is still who I am sometimes

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.
