My sister in law sent me this song. I’ve never heard it before. It’s supposed to be about Jesus. She said it reminded her of me because it reminded her of my Bipolar. ⠀⠀ You are not hidden There's never been a moment You were forgotten You are not hopeless Though you have been broken …
There is something beautiful about baring your soul. It's therapeutic. I did not realize how much I would like Instagram and this blog when I started them. I post pictures and posters on my IG account and I talk about my feelings. I never get ridiculed or told I'm ridiculous for my feelings. I do …

My husband surprised me with a Wolf Face Pomeranian and it’s the cutest, sweetest, most laid back darling little thing. I love him already!
