SNIPPETS OF MY LIFE

I love to travel because it gives a sense of adventure and freedom. A time when I'm inspired to seek new adventures, to explore, to make new memories of fun at the beach, to discover the simple joys of nature, and everything around me, get away from "normal"life, experience other cultures, to get to know places I wish to wander. Sometimes the best travel companion you can have is yourself. Solo travel is an incredible experience and one that every backpacker should experience at least once in their lifetime. I don't always travel solo nowadays but I do still occasionally and majority of my long term and short term trips over the last adventures or so have been solo ones. I absolutely love it. Don't get me wrong, travelling with a partner or a friend can be a great experience too, but you shouldn't dismiss the idea of travel just because you have no one to go with.

You are doing all that you can. Balancing life and everything else in between. Give yourself credit for all that you do. You are resilient and strong. You are dedicated and determined. Even those days that seem like a setback are only a step up from where you used to be.

Alicia Town Proper                              And, I get it – most of us don’t like the feeling of uncertainty.

I almost ran out of words to say and don’t know how to react. I feel so blessed that God always touches my heart, talking to me in depth, and reminds me to let it be a broken vessel making me whole again without further ado. The kind of love that is incomparable with anything in this world and beyond.                  Yes, I am still searching for the best, right answers to His questions and I’m doing my best to find them as well.

Hold on to me When I can’t hold on to you I become so exhausted sometimes with these irrational and unwanted thoughts Let me see the light at the end of the tunnel always Let me see you every time I look up the sky Let me see you every time I listen to the sad beat of my heart I know that you are the blood that keeps it pumping let me always have the strength to live even if I can’t Let me always be safe on your wings
