Refining Life's Ragged Edges

I seriously hate writing about me. What do you tell people? The customary who I am, where I'm from? Those are all well and fine but gets kinda redundant, doesn't it? If you want to know me, come read a long. I'm an open book - or at least try to be. I try to write a little about everything. I should one day find my niche, one day. I figure, if I keep writing eventually it’ll come. Mostly I write to help inspire. This world can be a pretty damn scary place to live in. The hate crimes. The sexual violence. The bombings and shootings. I want to be able to shed some hope. Even just a sliver. Something to help someone take another step in their day. I started this blog in the hopes I could help change a dark and hatred filled world. I'm not exactly sure I'm actually doing it or not. But, I'm trying. I also write to get the practice I need. Sometimes I’ll be sweet and awe inspiring. Other times I’ll show a bit of my true self with some dripping sarcasm and stupid humor. Then there are other times I just don’t make sense. Bear with me! When you come across my page, please feel free to leave me comments - about anything. Open forum. Open door. Open, open, open. I like having discussions about feelings (ya right) and hearing opinions of others about what I write. And other times, it’s just nice to know that someone out there goes through some of the same things I do. Thanks bunches in taking the time to stop on by! ~Pearls xoxo

Fix It

I talk highly about my mom and dad through my blogs. I didn't really have the best relationship with either of them during most times in my life. Mostly because I was being that adolescent girl that only thought of... Continue Reading →

Love Requires Sacrifice 

I finally watched The Longest Ride and one of the characters said that love requires sacrifice. The movie reminded me that there is so much in life, so many ups and downs, so many circumstances in our control and out... Continue Reading →

Vulnerability 

I like my walls. I like having them up so it protects my heart. It protects me from all the negative things going on in the world. It protects me from being hurt by the things I can control. It... Continue Reading →

Songs of My Heart

When I listen to music the song, the melody, the lyrics touches me where words alone can't. Music has always been my escape. Before writing this blog I've been more of a private person. I sorta still am but give... Continue Reading →

Understanding You

I have found that growing up and putting on big girl panties means being honest to yourself and to those in your life. Growing up is about being honest with what I want, what I need, what I feel, and... Continue Reading →

Leader of the Pack

I am a huge Green Bay Packers fan. I am not entirely sure how it all started. It wasn't like it was a family tradition. My family, like with everything else, is eclectic on our football teams. For me my love of... Continue Reading →

Look Up

I'm sure everyone has heard the phrase of "loving deeply." I've used it on many occasions on my blog to describe who I am. Loving deep makes you loyal to a fault. I believe in loyalty above everything. It's all or... Continue Reading →

Coffee Runs

While I'm a loner I hate being alone. I can count on one hand the people I can actually constantly be around. And as I sit here realizing for the next week I have to share a hotel room with... Continue Reading →

Clarity

I've come to realize clarity is an essential part of life. Of growing up. Of growing out. Of growing to be you. If you aren't sure of who you are, what you are, what you want, what you need nothing... Continue Reading →
