I’m in a new space. One where I am the furthest away from what I thought my future would be, but closest to the one that will eventualise. It’s a funny feeling. This isn’t what I would have chosen for myself, but most things become normal very quickly. Of course there are moments when I … Continue reading What Comes Next
I’m in the final week of living here, which is bizarre but great. As I said in my last post, I feel ready for the move, ready for the next thing. I think it’ll be good for me. This week was meant to be filled with work, long drives, saying goodbye, and packing. Only I’ve … Continue reading Taking Some Space
I’m in the midst of moving, which is exciting. In just over a week I’ll be living somewhere new, which I don’t know if I’ve fully processed yet. With all the practical aspects to keep me busy, as well as working, I haven’t had many opportunities to just stop and let myself think about it. … Continue reading Onto the Next Thing
I haven’t devoted an entire blog post to the physical appearance aspect of femininity, but it has been weighing on my mind for a few weeks. Admittedly, it has taken that long to grapple with the topic before I felt comfortable to talk about it. Similarly to when I spoke about health last week, the … Continue reading Femininity: on physical appearance
I have written about the seasons countless times. It is perhaps the thing I admire and appreciate most of God’s creation (other than flowers, maybe). I love that God gave us organised change, and the chance for something different and new. The beginning of each season always feels like a blessing; starting something is special. … Continue reading Slowly Receiving Autumn
I must confess, I enjoy washing the dishes. While I like a clean bathroom, I do not enjoy cleaning it. It is perhaps the task I struggle most to get through – though it is done every week and before guests come over, and it never takes as long as I think it does. But … Continue reading At Home: Washing the Dishes
I’ll admit; there are times to buy aprons! There are times when we move house and we can organise things in new or better ways. We may have more space for linen, an extra bedroom, or a laundry with a sink. These are good things, and they can be a relief and joy to us … Continue reading At Home: we do what we can
Dear friend,I’ve been pondering the importance of home. Of having a place for ourselves in which we can be comfortable and at peace; a space for ourselves and those we love.Our home, or whatever space is ours, is a natural reflection of who we are. The more I tend to a space, the more relaxed … Continue reading Newsletter: home again
I must confess, I have felt unsettled in my living arrangements for the past few months. While I am trying not to complain and learning to find joy in God, home is where I spend most of my time and if I don’t feel comfortable there, it affects me deeply. There are numerous reasons I … Continue reading Femininity: feeling at home
I am someone who constantly battles with contentment. I place a lot of value in finding beauty and joy in the simple things in life, and mention this frequently. But practically it is something I pray about regularly because contentment is not always my natural response. There are so many content creators these days, and … Continue reading Femininity: Seeking Contentment
