This post fills me with hope. If I summed it up in one word, that would be it.
I’m very meticulous and particular, constantly trying to have an active and controlling hand in the way others see and perceive me. And I realize that in ways I haven’t even begun to consider, I’ve undoubtedly removed the trees from my landscape that I personally dislike.
Careful curation has its place, surely. But I sense in reading this that I’ve been too focused on that goal and have lost sight of the forest for the trees.
Thank you for these words and this invitation to examine where my life is asking to be set free to grow wild.
Thank you, Kim! I am originally from Mount Gilead, Ohio and my sister and her family now live in Delaware. I'm not familiar with Clintonville but pulled it up on a map... :) I attended Kent State University and then moved to Denver in 2013. Are you from Ohio?

Love the sweater! What brought you to Delaware? Are you local to the area? I live in Clintonville!
