Unpacking Faith

Faith is often inherited. I'm not sure if that's good or bad, but I'm unpacking my hope chest. I need to see what's in it and decide, for myself, what I shall keep, what I shall discard, what I really believe. This is my journey. Welcome aboard.

About Me

I love talking to people who challenge me and make me think...shake things up a bit! The closer to polar opposites, the more intriguing. Comfortable is boring. I'm all about stretching and growing. I feel like I've been stagnant for a very long time and I've just begun what is shaping up to be the journey of a lifetime. It's a journey of self-discovery that should help me write something more concrete and certain in the section "About Me". I am separated and hope to be divorced soon. This will close a chapter of tremendous pain in my life that started long before the marriage, before I even met him, in fact. I've been healing from a lot of things. That process has me rethinking everything: my faith, relationships, love, sex, hope, family, politics, dreams, the future. It's an exciting place to be and though often I'm silly and mindless on these pages, I welcome the opportunity to engage with others who'd like to discuss these things as well.
