*WanderLust*

Fear less. Do more. Allow your heart to guide your dreams. Live with hope and always remember your roots. Achieve your bliss. James 1: 22-24 I love that God blessed me with a constant curiosity to learn, discover, and explore. I love taking pictures. I’m able to capture memories, from which that moment’s beauty and laughter can be relived over and over again. I love to travel and experience. Young Life has played such a large part in forming my heart. I’ve been able to renew my spirit daily through the grace that God extends into my life. My family and I reflect each other in our flaws, beauty, and originality. One of my favorite ways to be present is to sit back and enjoy life’s simple moments with a coffee in hand.

I hope you will have a wonderful year, that you’ll dream dangerously and outrageously, that you’ll make something that didn’t exist before you made it, that you will be loved and that you will be liked, and that you will have people to love and to like in return. And, most importantly (because I think there should be more kindness and more wisdom in the world right now), that you will, when you need to be, be wise, and that you will always be kind.

Find joy in the journey

Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.

—Kahlil Gibran (via quote-book)

Whatever you desire is already connected in some way to who you are and what you now have. Find that way, follow the connection.
