Shared some honesty on Instagram for my birthday. Here it is for the blog!
33.
My Jesus year birthday 🎂.
Watch out, world 🌎!!!
32 was a year of death…including losing both of my dear grandmothers this spring.
And yet it has also been a year of life…and living. Death AND life, bad AND good. Pain AND joy.
Real life is not Instagram, and it will never be summarized in a post, or fixed in a year, or tied up in a neat bow.
But striving for, seeking, and sharing beauty and goodness and simplicity can help us survive the hard things, and the tension of both/and living.
32 Highlights: lots of travel!
