What If…
There are a lot of what ifs that often come to my mind. Many of them carry the weight of failure.What if this doesn’t work? What if I’m not good enough? What if it does work and it’s not enough?And so what if carries this dark shadow with it.But what if is neutral. Good and bad things can happen.So I’m starting to ask myself some what ifs that are scary in a good way.What if God loves me just as I am, without output or effort.What if I don’t and never have to work to receive love from him.What if…
Keep readingThe Berry Pickers
I read this book as part of my residency book club pick of the month. I love my residency book club! It is filled with people I enjoy spending time with and miss acutely, now that I am no longer a resident.

Keep readingThe Newly Engaged Girl’s Library
I’ve been on a roll lately. Maybe it’s because I just got engaged. Actually, I got engaged months ago, but I think because of my slowest of slow burn brains, and long processing time, it has just now become real to me. Bolu is the person that I’m going to spend forever and ever with, and right now, it feels like happily ever after. If Happily ever after means taking each day at a time and getting to know one another and putting each other’s needs above our own and learning to disagree with love and agree with laughter, then…
