This Is Me

Hi!

I’m new here and so are you! My name is Abi and I am your average young adult wanting to spread a little bit of joy in this dark world, hoping that writing a blog would do just that

I’ve never really been good at school so I was confused when I had this desire in my heart to write a blog. I hated english class in high school because it required reading at an above average pace and writing papers on topics I didn’t really like. However, as a young adult with quarantine free time I’ve learned that reading and writing are enjoyable when you read books you actually want to read, and write about topics you have a love and passion for. If 11th grade english class started at age 25 I would have passed with flying colors.

Sometimes I feel like I don’t have a passion. I went to college not really knowing what I wanted to be when I grew up. I ended up changing my major at least 4 times and spent a lot of money for 5 years listening to the world tell me what I was suppose to be doing. Instead I should’ve listened to what God actually wants of me. To this day I still don’t know what that is, but I wake up every day receptive for what He has in store for me that day and listening to what He may be telling me about my future

If it is one thing I do know is that the Lord has given me a heart to love and serve people specifically kids. He has given me an appetite that can eat all the chips and queso that my stomach will allow. And He has given me the knowledge that life can be tough and navigating it can be even tougher.

There are days where I am excited and ready to go workout but also days where I lay on the couch and binge watch Grey’s.

There are days where I make myself a darn good grilled chicken salad but also days where I eat pizza and a whole pint of Ben and Jerry’s Ice cream.

There are days where I want to spend my time with my husband going out to the local brewery to try their new beer and there are days where I want stay in and enjoy my time at home with him.

There are days when I trust in the Lord with all my heart and soul and there are days when my anxiety sinks in and I want all the power and control.

Going through life is hard especially with different sources telling you to be different things. Navigating and sifting through truth and lies of the world is difficult but I think I am like every twenty something out there, trying to do my best at it. I hope you stick around for future blog posts and find encouragement in the good and the bad that life has to offer. I always want to be open and authentic and always want to bring some sort of positivity.

As Always,

Abi
