Discouraged in Your Last Semester
My shoe came untied 3 times walking to class this morning. I was actually worried that one of my shoes was going to come untied, but I thought it was going to be the other shoe. The first time I slowly stopped walking and tied it in the parking lot. The second time I again […]
Why Do I Even Go To Church?
I grew up in church. My parents have always thought that it was important to go. In my family there was no skipping church. Some of my friends wouldn’t go to church, because they were sick. I would be sick in the sound booth. We planned our vacations so that we were back home by […]
The Busy Life of the American Young Adult
I have watched many of the T.V. shows about college life and young adults. What catches my attention on those shows is something that makes the entire television program worth watching. These young adults have a life! They have adventures and fun times. At any moment they could call up their friend and go live […]
A Blog of Vulnerability
When I buy clothes I ask myself “Could I wear this to a funeral?” This is not a normal question (at least I don’t think it is). Even so, that is now a question for me. In the past 6 semesters of school I have have 5 people in my family die. It has happened […]
This Rain Though…
For those of you who know me, and for those of you who don’t, I hate rainy days. It hasn’t always been this way. As a child, I loved when it rained. My street flooded easily, so when it rained my siblings and I would run outside and play in the water. If you think that […]
It Ended with Changing My Oil
Growing up I always wanted to be a wife and a mother. I was blessed with a fabulous mom who showed me how to be towards your kids and how to always treat your husband like a blessing from God. She is loving towards him and honors him constantly. My parents have chosen to love […]
The Man in the White Truck
Driving down the road last night a white truck insisted on pressing his nose on the back end of my car. There was plenty of road, yet he wanted the lane that I was in. With an eye roll I moved over. As he sped past me I noticed he had an air conditioning unit […]
Looking Too Hard At My Future
Philippians 4:11 “Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content.” This lesson is hard. I constantly want to be doing more and I want to be at a different place in my life. For as long as I can remember I have been […]
Finding That Someone
Being single has some pretty great moments. The fact that there is no guy in my life does not make everything suck. I quite enjoy my life. Still, I have these moments when I feel totally devastated. I know that I am only 21. That has been told to me time and time again. The […]
What Eggs Do I Like?
My name is Destrea. I have brown hair. My eyes are blue. These are the things that I know about myself. They are the facts. They are truth. When I look in a mirror I recognize my face. We learn to do this as a baby. There is an amazing moment when a baby looks […]
Where Did My Friends Go?
Do you remember high school? I am not talking about remembering every class you had or every teacher who taught you. What I mean is do you remember what it was like in high school? I do. In high school I knew who pretty much everyone was. Sometimes you know their name and other times […]
