Christmas is Coming
Dear Christmas is coming, So for this post we are going to take a break from relationships and boy talk. Instead, I want to focus on the Christmas spirit that we are all feeling at the beginning of December. I don’t know about you but if I don’t have most of my Christmas shopping finished…

Bozo or Boaz
Dear Bozo or Boaz, It took me a long time to understand that my youth shaped my idea of what type of relationship I thought I deserved in my future. Relationships in our past often become a mirror of what we experienced, whether it was good or bad. If all we know is bad relationships,…

Feeling Alone

Lady in the Mirror
Dear Lady in the Mirror, As a teen, friends are a huge part of your life. They are the ones you depend upon during the hard times and the ones that are always there for the good times as well. But what most teens don’t know or fully understand that you, as an individual, mirror…

Searching for Answers
For most of my life I knew who God was, but I never really had a strong desire to get to know Him in a personal way. I busied myself with my friends and simply trying to have fun. The thought of God never really crossed my mind during my days. I would be reminded…
