not just a work in progress

God’s grace is based on His nature, not your behavior.

And when you choose a life partner, you’re choosing a lot of things, including your parenting partner and someone who will deeply influence your children, your eating companion for about 20,000 meals, your travel companion for about 100 vacations, your primary leisure time and retirement friend, your career therapist, and someone whose day you’ll hear about 18,000 times.

You are the only person who can sabotage yourself. When people say you can’t, the only person who can prove them wrong is yourself.

I think about you. But I don’t say it anymore.

No, I’m not ok. But I haven’t been ok since I was 11, maybe 12. I am still here though. I’m still breathing. For me, sometimes, that will have to be enough.
