I cannot even begin to explain how God is blessing me in my life right now! Especially recently. I just stay in a constant state of joy and exuberance. Only God can do that.
So I graduated from Aspen University almost 3 years ago with my Master’s degree in Psychology and Addiction Counseling. I’ve never doubted that in God’s time, He would open the door and prepare my way to begin working on my clinical hours so that I can become a licensed Mental Health Counselor. I’m already a mental health counselor- specializing in addiction, I’m just not licensed in the state of Indiana.
I was just given the number to the state licensure organization and I called and spoke with them, which led me to the Career Services Department at Indiana University (the college by which I received my Bachelor’s of Science in Psychology). Because I’m an alumni of Indiana University East, I have access to their Career Services, allowing me to take advantage of their directing me in how to go about obtaining my clinical hours . GOD. HAS. OPENED. THE. DOOR!
I’m really going to be starting my clinical hours very soon! This is a huge moment in my life. 🤗 I’m ECSTATIC.
I legit can’t keep up with all of the blessings God’s sharing with me and my Mom- in tandem. It’s incredible . We’ve been rejoicing at the great things God is doing in our lives.
I didn’t see any of this coming. It’s when we let go of the reigns- those ridiculous reigns that we think help us but are really driving us into the ground- and let God, as the saying goes, that we’re freed. When we truly let go, we have peace.
Peace, and true happiness.
And that’s the only way to experience God’s joy, truly .
Thanks to Him, I live in His joy. 🙂 24/7.
He. Is. Awesome. 🤗✝️🤗

I’ve always been a late bloomer. Who knew that I’d have to wait until I’m 53 before coming into my full blush of life?
(Since I don’t wear makeup, it was applied digitally. 😁) 💋

Click the link above to hear an original song I wrote called “The Flood”. A song about Addiction & pain; recovery and redemption. ♥️
This is an original song I wrote called “The Flood”, and it’s a song about struggling with addiction, but it’s dedicated to an unnamed gay friend of mine at Redbubble; He’s a phenomenal artist who shared a photo of himself holding a Bible in front of a Church in full drag, in the rain- mascara running down his face- lipstick all smudged; I found him incredibly beautiful. What a powerful image! I dedicate this song especially to him. Love you guys. ♥️
Lyrics:
“The Flood”
Standing, in the water
And your knees are, covered by the flood
Covered by the flood
Dancing, pitter patter, noise & noise & words
Falling down in idle chatter
Open up your mouth
And drink in the rain
Drink in the rain
And doesn’t it break your heart?
Doesn’t it make you cry?
Doesn’t it make you glad?
Turn the tears to wine
It doesn’t make you bad
For drinking in the rain
Don’t know what to do
With so much pain
I ate the guts out of a dirty potato
And now I’m feeling better, better, better, ooh

My Dad told me when I was just a little girl to never wear makeup. I’m so glad I listened. This one’s for you, Pops. ♥️

I wish I could write about allllll of the changes that I’ve gone through recently, but I respect my bestie too much, and it’s highly personal, so I’m leaving this dandelion pic here that I took today instead. 😎 Spring has SPRUNG. iPhone SE.
