Hello friends!

There is a lot of change happening in my life right now, so I thought it would be a perfect time to start a fresh, new blog. I don’t know how many of you are writers, but if you are you probably know it’s almost a holy moment to crack open a journal for the first time, press down the pages, and make your first marks.

I’ve been keeping a journal for over 20 years. It’s how I process life, love, work, family, and faith. I tell my husband, if he ever reads my journal to take whatever he reads with a grain of salt, because it’s the place were I can be immature, selfish, and full of doubt. Then, usually, as the words leave the tip of my pen, I gain a little perspective, refresh my faith, and grow in wisdom. From time to time I even have a thought that I think is worth sharing.

That’s my hope for this place. When I process life and sift through the chaff, if there is anything good left I’ll share it here. I hope you’ll be as challenged and encouraged in your reading as I will likely have been through my writing.

Thanks for being here –

-Angela.

PS – my old blog (which was terribly neglected the past few years) will be abandoned sometime in the near future. Thank you to my friends and family who always encouraged to me to keep writing! Check out www.holyleisure.net for some throw-back posts.
