Whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

Philippians 4:8

Once upon a time, there was a girl. Her dreams were filled with visions of beauty, beauty that she longed to capture and hold, to cultivate and to share. Her days were filled with study and the pursuit of academic excellence, which she achieved by the grace of God and His blessing on her labors.

Now, the girl has become a woman–yet her dreams are unchanged save for the maturing touch of time and the tempering effect of diligent patience. Her interests have multiplied and begun to blossom, filling the meadows of her visions with distinct varieties of beauty. At last, she finds that she may be ready to begin to share some of that loveliness…

• Through photography
• Through writing & reflections on the writings of others
• Through baking & cooking
• Through music
• Through art & the works of the Masters
• Through handmade crafts & creations
• Through her love of home

I am she. By sharing some of the beauty that has touched my heart and life, I hope that you–my readers–may also be touched, inspired, and filled with joy, that the Name of the Lord Jesus may be glorified, Who is the Creator of all beauty and the Author of all joy.
