A Change (and an Anniversary)

Seashells Organized Neatly

Here we are. A new look, a new name.

This blog was created on a whim one afternoon. And three years later (to the day!) I'm a different person, in a different place. It's time for a little refresh, I decided.

Still the same url. Still the same writing about love and life, and writing about writing, and reading too. And still the same me (...or the same as I ever am, for a girl who changes daily).

 I think the universe delivers things to us, much like the ocean. Each day brings lessons and lifelines. But, a person who is bent on seeing nothing always get's their way. It's a choice to open our eyes; to seek out what's infront of us and find what has washed ashore. Blogging inspired that search for me. 

This is a place for what I find.

  1. I become strangely excited by organizing things. Recently I posted (briefly) about the beauty of Ziploc bags as an organizational tool. Looking forward to tomorrow's post.
