I see people making an idol of their future spouse and being completely consumed with getting married it literally just irks me.
Why waste all my time daydreaming and setting my heart on tomorrow, when God’s desire for me is to simply be faithful and obedient to where He has me and what He’s…
“As a child I was undiagnosable. There was no pill
for the way I was inconsolable when I first read the story of
Plath’s life ending. My father took me to a diner that day
and I cried into half a napkin someone had left behind,
the words “You are more than” scrawled in a rush
just above the tear.
It only got worse with the years as I learned that
objects could be easily fixed and I couldn’t. It became
a problem, an addiction to handing pieces of my heart
out to dangerous boys and strangers with hooded eyes,
until my mother signed me up for a class called
How To Stop Loving Broken Things.
It didn’t work out. When the teacher finally gave up
he left a room of shadows dressed in black, crying into
each other’s shoulders and discussing sparrows’ wings
and the sound the tide makes before it pulls away.
Instead of discussing ways to stop loving, we talked about
etymology and the way the word “piece” has its own spot
in the dictionary. We handed each other diner napkins
with words to end that sentence no one wanted to finish.
You are more than what they see. More than stardust.
More than the speed of sound and the sound of echoes.
You are more than atoms and neurons colliding and
you are more than the ones who only know how to leave .

Emmi Coat, Gabriella Button-Up Shirt, April PumpLast month Club Monaco asked me to come to NYC to be part of their fall lookbook. Such a great experience and so fun to see the results!
There is going to have to be a point in your life where you look in the mirror and just scream ” NO I DON’T WANT TO BE HER, I WANT TO BE ME” where you’ll take a deep breath, put on your big girl panties and not worry whether he likes you or not..or about your hair or weight or bone structure? When did we start worrying about bone structure! You’ll let it all out and in the end look at yourself and say ” dang Jesus, you did pretty darn good, thank you for creating me and I’m sorry for doubting your creation.” It’s time to woman up ladies. You are pretty bad ass and can do incredible things so dont let anyone stop you. Now, stop critiquing the fact that I said ass and go be a world changer.
They actually did it, too.
this is the most adorable thing i’ve seen in my life

“What was the happiest moment of your life?”
“When I got my red toy!”
“I cured myself of schizophrenia.”
“How’d you do that?”
“I stopped listening to the voices.”
“When you yell at someone, who hears it more: you or them? You’re only hurting yourself by getting angry. I want to live to be 100. I haven’t raised my voice in 40 years.”
when a girl changes her clothes in front of you, she’s either really interested or you’re level 99 friend-zoned
Or she hasn’t spotted you in the tree yet.

He has said:
“Never shall I leave you;
Never shall I forsake you.”
And He means what He says.
