I’m Nobody, Who Are You?
I'm nobody! Who are you?
Are you nobody, too?
Then there's a pair of us -- don't tell!
They'd advertise -- you know!
How dreary to be somebody!
How public like a frog
To tell one's name the livelong day
To an admiring bog!
-Emily Dickinson
If you are joining me on this journey, I want to lay a foundation and begin by saying that I am really just a nobody who Jesus made a somebody. And, if you see anything good, it is because of Him. Although I will most likely be spilling my heart out on here, (sometimes maybe oversharing at times because under the right circumstances I can be quite a “wear your heart on your sleeve type of gal”), I pray you may always be directed back to Him.
I am a rather private person and I don’t really desire a public life and that stopped me from beginning this blog for many years. I wanted to protect my anonymity and my right to a quiet life. I didn’t want anything to do with social media and quite often I feel utterly overwhelmed by all the “noise” online. But I reached a point that I could no longer run from what God was asking me to do. I pray you would never leave this site feeling overwhelmed, inadequate or weary. But instead that you would always leave feeling at peace and gently encouraged to live and ponder and grow more deeply.
