Hopes and Prayers




So many things I hope for you this Christmas time and beyond… My family and friends, my loved ones who all play a part of who I am, help represent where I have been, and all own a distinct place in my heart... A few words for you to start the New Year.

I hope for peace and light to settle over you in a world that seems large and hectic, a frenzy of existence. I hope for God’s love to shine through, revealing to you the path that is yours, bright and clear, free of clutter and free of charge for you to run full force down. Giving you strength to change the things you wish to be different, and anticipation instead of dread for the unknown road ahead.


I hope for health, bodies full of life, energy to sing and dance, praise and love. I hope for you to find your true love, the kind that makes you wonder what you did without this person that completes your sentences and your heart, you deserve this more than anyone I know.


I hope that life’s hard decisions all the twists and turns that need answers, answers that seem to weigh a thousand pounds, answers that bear so many consequences that you just can’t make up your mind, will become unmistakable to you. The clearness that is distinctive to your heart only, will be given to you so that the weight you have been carrying, the weight that is putting out your light, will be lifted.


I hope the things that need to be forgotten will fade until they no longer hurt memories not haunting but only full of the times we need to remember.

I hope for healing, God’s power he has to heal our sick, and our loved ones. But I also hope for understanding, our minds to be able to understand and accept when it hurts the most, when the ones we love are sick or no longer with us. I pray for understanding and peace, your reasons being greater than our own and being able to accept that without our humanity demanding proof of why or how.


2010… A crazy collection of memories to look back on, a year full to the brim… many lands traveled, loves blossomed, and friendships made. I am so thankful for all the relationships made and cherish the times with you all. 2011 Here we come.
