Life has finally plateaued a little bit! To be honest, the second half of 2017 wasn't that great and I hit of bit of a rough patch for a while which didn't really make me want to engage. In August I got diagnosed with an Autoimmune Disease which involved getting a diagnostic procedure and many trips to my specialist. I wasn't feeling very well for a good half a year until my medicine started to take affect and I could go back to my normal lifestyle. I am so grateful for the friends (Essi, Sok and Mary) who actively asked me how I was feeling and really encouraged me and showed me some real genuine love- thanks friends! Now that I'm feeling better and have more vigor to have a great year I will try to be more consistent with being present on my blog. So far 2018 has 2 main events, both of which are going to occur in May. First of all, my loyal and trusty friend of 25 years is getting married!!! I couldn't be happier for Kat and her boo Anton! I am so honored to be part of their wedding but am devastated that Kat will be moving clear across the country to Rhode Island :( The second (which will actually happen first) awesome thing is that I will be taking a vacation to the Dominican Republic! I am so excited to get away and have some time to relax and really look forward to just disconnecting from the anxieties of present life. I also pray that 2018 will bring with itself a new job, but I will remain content no matter the outcome. I'll say goodnight with a few pics that were taken sometime between this post and my last one. Goodnight babies, have a great February!

It's so easy for me to start to feel diminished or weakened by the effects of the world. I very quickly start to think that my value lies in earthly things like my grades, my relationship status, my financial state or what kind of impression I can make. When those things don't go as planned I start to feel I am not valuable. It is crazy how quickly I am to listen to to the doubts and lies the devil feeds me.I put on a facade of confidence when inside I am broken and feel like I am insignificant, my mind runs a muck with doubt and fear that I will never be the person God wants me to be. I start to believe I am worthless, or a useless Christian, he tells me that I am not enough, I must do something else, I must be better, prettier, smarter; he distracts me from God by making me think my valu...
