I've been keeping journals since I was in the 3rd grade and I'm so glad to share some of my most intimate life moments with you here!  Here, you'll find inspirational and encouraging stories of me and other broken people like me. We are all jars of clay who have been afflicted in every way, but not crushed...struck down by not destroyed.  Here, you do NOT have the right to remain silent, so as you read, grab your favorite snack and drink and leave a comment...share YOUR story. I can't wait to connect with you in this beautiful safe space. 

welcome to my

journal!

MS. VICKI | A BLACK RAPIDS, ALASKA SESSION FILLED WITH SISTERHOOD

It could have been her adorable short haircut. Or, it could have been the excitement I heard in her voice. Whatever it was about Vicky, just like her sister Jennie, I was drawn to her.

THE DASH IN BETWEEN | FINDING YOUR PASSION | FROM THE DESK OF SACHEL SAMONE

Recently, while cleaning up, I found my grandfather’s obituary. It was neatly folded up in one of my journals and as I picked up, I slid down the wall and read it over and over again. Not to sound totally creepy or anything, but after graduating college, I found myself reading the obituary section in […]
