Our Side of the Story

Always be ready and willing to learn from those who are far experienced than you are.

Now to raise a kid like this one, that’s the dream!

እንኳን አደረሳችሁ🤗

Ever had something you were absolutely good at but now it feels strange to even attempt it?

It was a beautiful day🖤

Songs?

Do I ever say how much I adore kids?

I hope you had a good day, sleep well🖤

I don’t remember the last time I was at church, something to do with holding God responsible for the actions of his people. The feeling of being at home in church was long gone, haven’t had the rush of it since sophomore year in high school. Worship felt foreign to my soul, his word being preached stopped cracking my chest open. Instead it was just random biblical words flowing out of a random human. I became numb to his presence, which was a painful realization. Having lost the one loyal companion. I went to church yesterday, my limbs still tingle from the warmth I felt after years. The pastor said “You wouldn’t be who you are today if God hadn’t tested you, and he did because he loves you” My cheeks were wet from tears of another painful realization, I blamed God for all the wrong reasons and despite it he still held me and waited for me to come home. I felt like I was 16 again, vulnerable and surrendering at his feet.

Happy Saturday :)

“For you have been my help. I will rejoice in the shadow of your wings. My soul stays close to you. Your right hand holds me up.” Psalms 63: 7-8 Have a beautiful day loves🖤

Grateful for another day, መልካም ቀን :)

Q: What is the most influential book you ever read? A: They’re all jumbled up on me now, I can’t name one but currently on ግራጫ ቃጭሎች by አዳም ረታ I will post the most influential books I’ve read when I’m not half asleep :)

Q: Heyy Debbie What inspires you to write? A: usually things that catch me off guard but also the silliest and tiniest things like a bird crossing a street or kids playing or I don’t really have any poetic inspirations.
