Here and now

Welcome to my blog. I'm just a young woman in her early 20s preparing to face adulthood and trying to develop a healthy way of life in the here and now. While preparing for the future is important, I think it's so important to focus on the here and now, because if we're always looking to the future we won't get to enjoy our present place in life.

This blog, as noted, is about Daily Life. Join me on the journey as we learn how to manage stress in college, how to find enjoyment in the little things, how to confront struggles (big and small), how to select a roommate, buy a house, and do taxes... Most importantly of all: how to find the joy and beauty in the here and now and how to accept the experience of that beauty (through meditation) and hone that beauty (through house cleaning & decorating & loving friendships).

While the goal of my life is faith, joy, love, and simplicity, this doesn't mean leave out all adventure. It means make the most of the calm and make the most of the adventures and the avalanches. On that note, I will soon be departing to spend a semester in Europe with 29 other beautiful souls, so join me on the journey. Let's go find the beauty in life as God has created us to do!
