The original idea about this blog was for it to be my scrapbook outlet, so that I don't start a yet
another journal that takes up precious space in our cave. Things/images/sayings
that matter to me in any way have a home now and that is just great.

Independence Day as a Naturalized American Citizen - do capital letters make it
more meaningful? As I've mentioned to Bear some time ago, I really have made
peace with being bicultural. I am truly embracing both cultures {and the people
that contributed to who I am today}.
I know someone whose
higher power is LOVE. Let me think about that for a second… So far love has
meant so many different things to me throughout my adult life. At one point I
thought of it as a steamy, entirely consuming and intensely dominating aspect
of one's life. Then I believed it didn't actually exist (there was not much
self-love at that time). Later on I imagined that not everyone was lucky or deserving enough to cultivate love in their lives. At 28 years old I know this: There are countless types of love and relationships in general. Without getting
too deep, I believe love doesn't just happen. It needs nurturing and attention.
