Here we are, a little over an hour from the new year (here in PST). And, the prompt over at Finding the Grace Within is quite appropriate: BEGIN. We take the opportunity at the start of each new year to find new beginnings. Before I look at the possible new beginnings headed my way in 2015, I am … Continue reading New Beginnings

Dear Heart
It's Sunday, but I'm doing a Five Minute Friday post. That means: 5 minutes, no over-thinking, no-over editing. Just pouring out my heart. This week's prompt is DEAR. And, I have written a letter, a letter to my heart & a letter to my love, who isn't quite in my life yet. A simple letter of what … Continue reading Dear Heart
It’s only just begun…
It's been quite a while since I've written. In my post "So, there's this guy..." I wrote about the Airman & a few of our dates. I also shared how hard it is to write about our dates because they are so precious to me. That is still true, it is really hard, now that … Continue reading It’s only just begun…
So there’s this guy…
Yep, there's a guy. The Airman and I have had three dates now. I guess you'd call it hanging out or dating or something...but 3 dates have happened and a fourth is in the works. How strange that in the matter of a month, I have gone from 0 dates to 3 - and I'm … Continue reading So there’s this guy…
One…
The "Adventures in (Pre-)Dating" tab in the menu above has officially changed to "Adventures in Dating". Why? You might ask... In my last post, I introduced the Airman. Since then, he decided he wanted to meet for coffee. So, we met for coffee. That's right, at 25 years and 10 months old, I had my … Continue reading One…
The Adventure Continues…
So, a lot of people know I, at 25 years old, have yet to go on a date. Not. One. Single. Date... But, my cousin and some friends have been encouraging me to make this the year it happens. By this year, they mean 2014. As for my 25th year, in 2 months (actually, a … Continue reading The Adventure Continues…
The White Stag
When I get a C.S. Lewis book in my hands, my heart melts a little. Fiction or non-fiction. Ancient lands to Contemporary London to the space between Heaven and Hell. I love his works, his words, and the heart behind them all. But, my favorite place in his stories? Narnia. (I bet you saw that … Continue reading The White Stag
Confidence
In my last post, "Don't dress stupid", I quoted a line from the most recent HIMYM:"The real challenge is walking up to a [girl] I've never met before and somehow talking to her with words from my mouth..."Exactly...When I'm with my friends or coworkers, I often find myself saying, "yeah, and I'm the quiet one … Continue reading Confidence
“Don’t Dress Stupid!”
These words are seared into my head each time I get dressed thanks to my Cousin. Though originally spoken about a specific situation, I know it applies to every day life.And, they were repeated as we discussed the first of my "practice dates" - a few outings with others just to get me used to … Continue reading “Don’t Dress Stupid!”
“How did that happen?!”
Whenever people hear that I'm single, they usually just assume I'm single right now. Or that I haven't dated much...When they discover I've never been on a single date, I usually get a very incredulous look followed by the question, "How did that happen?!"By this, they mean, how did I make it to 25 years … Continue reading “How did that happen?!”
