Hello Beautiful Souls 😍
I hope you and your loved ones had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Tarl and I had a wonderful time together. It's just the two of us . He's the oldest of 9 and I'm in between of 11 or 12 🤣 . There's 13 of us.
All our siblings and extended family and parents are scattered out . We're just in a beautiful small town in Texas . In our home we bought last year . Been married little over 2 years and enjoying the journey. Who knew after so much heartbreak, dreams, wishes and prayers that we could find love again especially among covid where we were shut down healing from our divorces and alone. I in Ohio and he in Texas.
We firmly believe that God played a huge role at that time. We're deeply grateful and enjoying this wonderful journey. Tarl is 46 and working fulltime as a technical writer. Then he enjoys time with me and working on the creative projects he's doing. Right now he's working on his first graphic novel.
You can see more of his creative works and books here
I am still in Fall semester and 3 weeks from finals. These are the rough weeks. Especially when I'm having inflammatory arthritis and Oestoarthritis flare ups along with playing with insulin levels for my type 2 diabetes. I still see several of my specialists and working together to fix me up.
Being 39 I'm so stoked for my 40th Birthday. You can read more of my 40things before my 40th birthday. One of them to get my Family Science degree and be a Family life educator.
We're enjoying our time and see the blessings in all circumstances. Hard being away from family especially when you had your twin and 2 little nephews here for 8 months since last November. But they are in their own little chapter of a new journey.
Between time we try to keep up with the store and social media accounts. Know it's still a work in progress but all is well. We appreciate all the support. You can follow for more on our linktrees in the contact page of the website. Or here 😀
I got tons of school to do. But I wanted to share an update. Just know you're enough. You're appreciated. Blessings are all around . Know that all things happen for a reason. There's much heartache in life but also there's so much joy and purpose.
May you know that answers will come in time. Your deepest desires will be answered. Be patient. Keep the hope. You're not alone or forgotten.
Oh, btw you truly matter. What you're doing with your life is great . I wish you all the best and we're here for you. Please show yourself more love and care. Keep those around you close. Make amends to those that hurt you.
You're enough. Keep shining ✨️ Be inspired ✨️
Talk soon 💜

Hello beautiful souls 💜 Hope you're doing well and enjoying life just one day at a time .
I was reflecting on this art piece of mine I had done awhile back. It's beautiful. I created it. Something I wanted for myself to see within myself, a beautiful light. Someone who has flaws, scars, trials with health and fights major depression and anxiety along with ptsd from trauma over the years. Yet, I am enough.
I am beautiful despite all obstacles and bullying. All the non self-esteem, self-care and unloving challenges over the years. Just has made me more stronger, wiser, empathetic, compassionate and so much more.
I can't explain why we have doubts, lack of faith, struggles that seem so often and other things in life. I just know for me blessings and beauty out weigh the bad. Take the bad and the good of course because life is of learning, growth and overcoming obstacles. It's the beauty of seeing yourself being perfected and that you are capable, resilant, talented and enough.
I love the arts and writing. I'm creating my life in all circumstances through my passions, talents and learning. Finding the joys along with my husband through creative projects.
I can see more perfectly today than yesterday. More loving to myself. Accepting. I create art, projects, captures, sing, dance, in ways I feel is acceptable for me to understand and grow. This helps me build confidence.
One reason I am jackieinspires and have this blog and shop. I love supporting others. Uplifting and inspiring. A reminder YOU ARE ENOUGH. You are capable of creating and being who you so desire. It takes alot of continuous work but it can happen.
So I find that reflecting on your journey is such a beautiful and inspiring way to grow. Let yourself feel all emotions and energy. Just one day at a time . I hope you can follow along and share your journey with me.
Keep shining ✨️ Be inspired ✨️
