Tell Your Heart to Beat Again

You're shattered
Like you've never been before
The life you knew
In a thousand pieces on the floor
And words fall short in times like these
When this world drives you to your knees
You think you're never gonna get back
To the you that used to be

Tell your heart to beat again
Close your eyes and breathe it in
Let the shadows fall away
Step into the light of grace
Yesterday's a closing door
You don't live there anymore
Say goodbye to where you've been
And tell your heart to beat again

Beginning
Just let that word wash over you
It's alright now
Love's healing hands have pulled you through
So get back up, take step one
Leave the darkness, feel the sun
'Cause your story's far from over
And your journey's just begun

Let every heartbreak
And every scar
Be a picture that reminds you
Who has carried you this far
'Cause love sees farther than you ever could
In this moment heaven's working
Everything for your good

Oh, so tell your heart to beat again

The Taste of Fall

All of a sudden it’s fall. It’s like a switch was flipped. The nights are cooler (well, I think they’re down right cold) and the days are shorter. I’m wearing light jackets, and thoroughly enjoying the new trench coat the I picked up back in August. Today I had my first Pumpkin Spice Latte of the season. And, it was amazing. I’m so excited that fall is here. I just love all the spices and flavors in fall seasonal food. I’m looking forward to trying out some very delicious looking recipes that I’ve been saving for cooler weather, and partaking in some fall-ish activties. I just hope it doesn’t get too cold too soon!

Don't Lose Focus

I realized lately that I’ve started to lose my drive and focus when it comes to personal growth and improvement. I hit, what felt like a major milestone a couple weeks ago, and I think in a way I felt like I could take a break. And, while a break is ok, my “breaks” tend to last too long, or I simply stop entirely. I recognize that I need to keep going on my current path. Because, if I stop now, it could set me back. And, I’m so tired of being set back, and being left behind. What are those things that you’ve been putting off? What is something that is undone in your life? Get on it girl! Even if you don't finish the task, start it today !

Happy November!

It is officially November, so you know what that means. Holiday preparations are now in full swing. I’ve been told I’m so organized I’m boring, but making lists, forward thinking and planning helps with managing my stress levels. There is just so much to do, think about, and keep track of! I have about 5 lists going right now. It’s crazy. What’s most exciting is that since I’ve moved to a house, my family and I will have more room to spread out and relax at Thanksgiving. I always get so nervous that everything won’t work out, or people won’t have a good time. But, no matter how much I worry, it always works out in the end. Here’s to a happy, healthy, and relatively stress free holiday season!
