"The culture we have does not make people feel good about themselves. And you have to be strong enough to say if the culture doesn't work, don't buy it."

I have an inexorable passion for God, young people, coffee, writing, Photoshop, good books, precise grammar, beautiful words that I will never use in my day-to-day conversations, avocadoes, purple, pretty stationery, random trivia that is of absolutely no use to me, Post-its, bubble wrap, facial hair and origami.

Gratefulness day four.

(It’s been awhile haha, there are simply too many things in life to be grateful for so I write about the highlights)

I caught up with my youth pastor today and I felt this sense of relief weave its way into my chest; simply being around your leader and taking a bit of time out of your crazy life to learn from them is nourishing to your soul. Great mentors are few and far apart; I don’t think I’ve had more than a few consistent ones apart from my parents. There aren’t enough words in the dictionary to accurately express the depth of my appreciation towards the people who have willingly taken me under their wing, drop a little wisdom into my heart every chance they get and challenge me to broaden my field of vision. I love that God has a way of bringing the right people into your life in even the loneliest, driest seasons.
