Why? | Sweet Abandon
https://amyellison.wordpress.com/why
Cherishing the bitter-sweetness of life. I don’t write for money, and I don’t write because I want to become famous. I would seriously need to put forth way more effort than I’m comfortable with in order to fit into either of those categories. I write because it is one way for me to share my heart with the world. I have never been good at speaking my thoughts. Hence, being able to articulate the details of my heart in written form has always thrilled me. Feel like sharing too? Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Back up to this past summer. When I got a real J-O-B as a nurse, we decided I would save most of my paycheck for a house. Our own house. We have been renting for a while, almost 7 years now. And while renting was nice at first, (Ah! We have recently been wanting a place to call our own. It has everything on our.

Cherishing the bitter-sweetness of life. Feeling all the Feels. March 22, 2015 6:01 pm. March 22, 2015 7:30 pm. Reflecting on my morning:. Laughter, tears, worship, dancing, hugs, family, food. Beautiful. It’s been a roller coaster of a year, folks. At the end of this nursing program, I did not expect so many feelings. . . I spent some time crying today to my wonderful husband, and then I took a therapeutic nap, and now I am therapeutically blogging to help me sift through all these feelings. One month t...

Cherishing the bitter-sweetness of life. October 28, 2015 12:56 am. October 28, 2015 7:25 am. Pumpkin seeds made me cry tonight. Or something like that. Snuggled up on the sofa with my love, watching Netflix, eating pumpkin seeds that we had just roasted . . . I was overwhelmed with gratitude for that moment. Finding these rhythms again feels good.

In His Arms | Sweet Abandon

Cherishing the bitter-sweetness of life. July 8, 2014 10:21 am. July 8, 2014 8:53 pm. Coffee mug in hand, I stare out the window at the cloudy sky, and my tired mind tries to focus on something that feels beyond reach. I begin the slow climb up into His arms. It takes all my might – it has been too long, and I haven’t done this climb nearly enough lately, and so these muscles feel rusty, weak, and afraid. Resting my head against His chest, I listen for His whisper, yearn to hear His heartbeat. My head an...
