The Truman show
The Truman show is my new favorite movie. It’s about a man, Truman, who slowly discovers the world he lives in is actually a lie. I know I use the term amazing very loosely on this account, but this movie

Finding Nemo
Finding Nemo is a great movie. First of all, the animation was revolutionary. Back in 2003, making an CG animated movie that took place completely under water was quite a challenge, and the animators nailed

Elf
I really really hate Elf. I hate it sooo much. Where do I even start. First of all, I think it’s dumb. A lot of comedies have dumb plots but these days, but I just can’t get with the plot of this movie.

John Carpenter’s greatest creation
This movie may be John Carpenter’s greatest creation. You can’t be a real horror movie fan without seeing The Thing. This movie is amazing. It is landmark for practical effects and they hold up to this

He's got you
"How do you know what God's plan is, or if you're following it?"⠀ ⠀ This is one of the questions I got late last night for TipsyTuesday and didn't get to answer, but honestly I'm sort of glad

But I want you to look at me⠀ and see we are the same
I want to know what you see⠀ when you look at me.⠀ Is it brown eyes, searching⠀ your face? Is it a smile, pulling⠀ you closer? Is it arms and legs,⠀ muscles and curves?⠀ Do you feel threatened⠀ by the

Not one emotion or feeling or perspective or being
You are not one color. You are not simply red, or blue, or yellow. You are not one-dimensional, not static or still, not always following the same set path. You are not just angry, or happy. Not one emotion

remember this the way He sees you is what matters
I'm feeling off today. Maybe because it feels like everyone around me is getting sick and I'm trying to fight that. Maybe it's because I stayed out a little too late last night with a girlfriend celebrating

no one can ever take them away from you
How liberating is it to realize that every dream you've ever had is merely a fingertip's length away from you? That there are no 'wrong' decisions or choices, just lessons?⠀ ⠀ Let those simple statements

Because God is standing with you.⠀
Trust me when I say I know how dang hard it is to rest contently in God's promises. Sometimes you feel like an idiot, pursing the direction He told you to go while the rest of the world seems to have it

And that's what matters
You were hesitant⠀ where I was fearless⠀ and I deserved better than that.⠀ ⠀ So here's the thing—love isn't perfect, or equal, or easy. Sometimes you give more. Sometimes you're low and your person gives

And you step forward and believe. And begin
I love the idea of love as a new beginning — and isn't that so true? When you fall into someone's arms, it's like life starts from that moment forward. You weren't empty or any less than full before, but

Give me unedited. Give me imperfect. Give me us
Give me something raw and messy. Give me two people trying to navigate the craziness of one another’s thoughts, dreams, schedules, goals, pet peeves, and habits. Give me two pairs of shoes by the front

Perhaps I can imagine what we look like from above a little family so simple, so easy, so right
“I love you,” he says, simply, shrugging his arm over my shoulder and pulling me closer to him. We’re sitting in the middle of the beach, dogs kicking sand wildly with their feet and children laughing

This is the lesson I'm forever trying to learn, the words I'm always repeating to myself - whether I'm frustrated, or angry, or confused, or in over my head, or whatever it may be. There are things we

But isn't it true that in the most terrifying of moments we grow?
I posted a question on my Facebook today, asking people if they wanted me to write about something specific, if they were looking to read about a topic that has been heavy on their heart. I haven't done

It's all about what you choose to focus on
I've been thinking a lot lately about what it means to be positive in the face of struggles. It seems like everyone's searching for this quick fix, for a foolproof way to get over heartbreak, or

Because your heart knows you, is you. And will guide you through.
Don’t be afraid of the power of your heart, of the truths it shares, of the pounding that will lead you to places far beyond you’ve ever imagined. Don’t be afraid to let go of what you’ve always had, always

This is what I remind myself of, this is what I will continue to write
My family lost a loved one recently. My mom lost a 'sister;' our friends lost a mother, a wife, a confidant, a support system, an entire world. I've struggled the past few days to write about this loss.

Positivity is my mantra
Positivity is my mantra. I swear sometimes I feel like I talk about it, write about it, and try to smile so damn much that it annoys some people (but why the heck would I want to associate with those kinds
