Beautifully Designed

By

  A while back, I found myself roaming the streets of Beverly Hills, window shopping before an appointment. As I strolled down Melrose, my eyes were drawn to this gorgeous, intricately tailored, lace gown. It was way out of my price range, but I understood why. The dress wasn’t just fabric. It was a delicately designed masterpiece. As young women, we gaze upon these fashions with such wonder. These incredible styles seem so out of reach to us. But where did they all begin? They didn’t start out as a work of art. They were simply fabric: ordinary, typical, usual…

Fashion For Soles and Passionate Souls

By

As a young woman in this generation, I feel unstoppable when I’m wearing the right pair of shoes. However, I often find myself scrambling to select the perfect pair for the right occasion at a great price. Men may not understand why we need a closet full of footwear, but come on-we do A LOT! Whether we are running errands, running a marathon, or running off to girls night, we need a little variety.

Sisters, Together, on the Way

And then we rise with that truth of who we are. I adore you. Let us be daughters who, in the safety of Your arms, risk nothing and everything when we tell…

By

My brother and I have an uncle that lives in Florida. He and my brother have always had a very close relationship. Whenever anyone asks my now-grown brother why he loves his uncle so much, he always says that when he was young, Uncle Jim made him feel just as important as the adults in the room.     During the phase of life when teenagers so often feel overlooked and under-appreciated, Uncle Jim made my brother feel valued, not just by expressing affection, but by engaging him in great conversations and showing sincere interest in his life. Sadly, many…

What basil, cilantro and parsley taught me about relationships.

By

Three tiny clay pots adorn our kitchen windowsill: basil, cilantro and parsley. All three were planted in mid-January. All three were watered diligently, every other day. All three were rotated, to get enough sun and all that jazz. All three were talked to, because I once heard that helps plants or something? These thumbs of mine aren’t green. Maybe an off-lime at best. Crayola would call it Green Yellow. But how hard could this planting herbs thing be? I reasoned. I can read directions. I can follow directions. Basil seemed to thrive. Green stems gave way to green leaves and…
