A few weeks ago I stumbled across my 2020 goals. I read through my hopeful aspirations and realized I only achieved 1 out of 15. Thank you COVID. I looked at my goals and felt a wave of disappointment and frustration. Then I looked at my intentions for the year and noticed I either achieved most of it or am working on it. When I speak of intentions, I am talking about who I am as a person; how I want to be, feel, and act. The person I want to be in the present moment. My goals are for the future; what I am trying to achieve through career, travel, etc. If last year taught us anything, it’s that we can not control what happens, we can only control ourselves. Only I can give myself peace and happiness, and the choice to see the silver lining when things may not work out the way I planned. (more…)

Friday’s Simply Smitten
“God is within her, she will not fall”
-Psalms 46:5

It’s been a wonderful few months here in Columbus and I am very grateful I was able to spend so much time with my family. I know how fortunate I am that I have been able to do so when so many have lost loved ones or have not been able to see family. Hopefully this year we will all be able to hug again. (more…)

That someday I will be able to wear them to a party. Here are my top favorite outfits of 2020. (more…)
Friday’s Simply Smitten
“Things can instantly happen for you. Don’t ever doubt the power of a sudden blessing.
Breakthroughs happen every second. Miracles are real and natural.”
-Moon Omens
Happy Friday! One more week until Christmas! I have finally finished all of my shopping, but still have wrapping to do. I have to admit that I am not the best at wrapping gifts. No matter how careful or focused I am, it somehow always comes out looking terrible. I guess I wasn’t born with the skills to wrap presents. My dad, however, has the wrapping paper thumb and makes every present look impeccable. (more…)
