A Quintessential Life: July 2011
http://stephievjournal.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Reflections.Laughter.Truths.Awkwardness.&Love. Sunday, July 3, 2011. Life is not always a spoon full of sugar. There are sour moments that make you pucker up in unbearable discontent. Yet, just like the oh-so-familiar phrase, we must accept that when life gives us lemons, we better sweeten up that sour and make some lemonade. :). I have realized that regardless of all else surrounding, my life is beautiful. Isn't yours? Meet Cindy, my mother. - She's my hero. Not figuratively. Meet Hannah Joy. She's ...

A Quintessential Life
http://stephievjournal.blogspot.com/2012/05/its-been-few-days.html
Reflections.Laughter.Truths.Awkwardness.&Love. Monday, May 28, 2012. It’s been a few days. I’ve been thinking. Pensive little Steph has had thoughts but no words. I’ve arrived. I’ve arrived at this place of familiarity. Elated like a little girl in her favorite local candy shop, my smiles soon turned into squeals, the squeals then progress to laughter and the laughter producing tears of unknown feelings. 8221; I exclaimed! 9 months later and I was FINALLY HOME!

A Quintessential Life: Home At Last
http://stephievjournal.blogspot.com/2012/04/home-at-last.html
Reflections.Laughter.Truths.Awkwardness.&Love. Thursday, April 26, 2012. I'm headed there for the first time in what seems like a century. When home is a place that you no longer reside, home is a feeling within. Though you exist in one place, your heart can somehow be occupied with another. Sometimes I believe no matter how far you journey or no matter how much a soul changes, its heart will always remain with that place where it all began. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

A Quintessential Life: Road maps and airports
http://stephievjournal.blogspot.com/2012/08/road-maps-and-airports.html
Reflections.Laughter.Truths.Awkwardness.&Love. Saturday, August 4, 2012. Road maps and airports. I find myself calm on the exterior but inwardly frantic as I repeatedly tell myself, "It's gonna be great". I'm going away again soon. 7 weeks to be exact. I tell myself I'm going to love it but logically I'm missing home and I haven't even departed. Suitcases. Ahhh, suitcases. And laundry mats for clean clothes. What about the weekends? Do I bask in the company of strangers? It will be good. Yes, it will.

A Quintessential Life: Travels & things that unravel
http://stephievjournal.blogspot.com/2012/09/travels-things-that-unravel.html
Reflections.Laughter.Truths.Awkwardness.&Love. Friday, September 21, 2012. Travels and things that unravel. The last I spoke with you, I had highly anticipated and somewhat fret the arrival of my fall travels nearing each day. I can assure you that words have been written and thoughts been exchanged each day. Some of which I have chosen at this point to keep as an internal ponderous thought and nothing more. But I do want to share with you at least a bit of my journey thus far. This week I have been chal...

A Quintessential Life: Grace - I'm dumbfounded
http://stephievjournal.blogspot.com/2012/08/grace-im-dumbfounded.html
Reflections.Laughter.Truths.Awkwardness.&Love. Monday, August 6, 2012. Grace - I'm dumbfounded. I happened upon some strangers yesterday. Nothing extraordinary about that encounter I suppose. But something about this run-in made the ordinary quite different this time. In the long run I suppose I owe a thanks to them for respecting my personal convictions. It wasn't easy then and it definitely isn't easy now. I work in a Christian environment where my co-workers believe the best for my life and I actually...
