 Get ready for a post you won't want to miss! Today we are going to talk about all things Family, Faith, and Wisdom! So click that computer on, gather up the family and read this together.... In this season of life lots of things are changing. We are constantly getting used to a NEW normal and it's anything but what it used to be. It's very hard to navigate the how-tos when things are constantly changing. That is one reason I've created this site, so you could have a place to turn to so you could help guide your family through these tough times. One thing that hasn't changed and has remained constant is family...we need our family more than ever to get through these times. It seems it has become a very essential part to many peoples lives and sanity. Another thing we also need to hold onto is our faith. It is important that we do not lose hope during these times, and our children need us to show them an example and where our strength comes from. Another thing is we

 Where do you find your worth? Where does it truly come from?  I never understood it til now, but this year I found myself constantly questioning my own worth. "I am enough?" "Do I really deserve to be loved?" "Will I ever find someone that loves me the way I deserve?" These were all things I thought about myself. I let others actions affect how I see myself. I didn't understand how people could tell me they love me and then just walk away so easily. I was hurt and broken and looking for love. Trying to find the perfect love in others who were just as broken as I was...no wonder they hurt me. They couldn't love me the way I needed, the way I wanted. Suddenly I came to the realization, just now as I write this, that it only comes from one place...that is God.  I realized I was looking in a place where I could never find it...take this story for example: say there's a store. This store has been in town for many years and it is well known and high

 "Love is enough" The quote that many have requoted for years. While some may say it is true, is it really? Is love really enough? What does that even mean? Well, some would say love is a feeling so if we're going based solely on that fact, then sorry to say but no it is not enough. See that is the problem, we base our relationship on how we are feeling. We base the ranking of our family on how we feel about each other and whether we fight or not. You may not be aware but ALL...let me say it again, ALL relationships have their ups and downs, every family fights once in a while. If you really base it solely on that, you'll be let down every time. "So what do we base it on?" you may ask; You base it on actions, its a conscience decision everyday to say "no matter what, I will stick around and fight for you, for US." That is what you signed up for when you said "I do" and many of us are standing at the altar with our children present while w

 Change can be very hard for some, but it is an inevitable fact of life. The problem isn't how can we avoid change, it's how can we live with change and make it work for us? Let me just share this with you, I personally am someone who doesn't like change. My least favorite part about Christmas is when it's over and we have to take down the Christmas tree and change how our house looks by putting the decorations away. It's sad to see things go away and what was once, now is not. The thing I struggle with most is the memories, but maybe I should be holding onto them instead of focusing on the pain they tend to cause. Memories can be a good thing.  Good memories Birthdays special events/ocassions addresses to locations friends these are all memories of things that are important and good to remember, and they can bring us joy. Bad memories Deaths events such as 9/11  bad dreams traumatic experiences these are all bad memories that we tend to not want to remember (for go

 Hey guys, I’m sorry I haven’t been very active on posting for you! I’ve been going through a lot of changes this past year and been trying to cope with it all. Today I just wanted to write this post to share that one thing I’ve learned from all of this is that nothing lasts forever. Sometimes we have to learn to let go of things no matter how much we want to hold on and keep trying. I know we are all going through tough times right now so I just want to say that’s what I made this for. So I could share my own experiences and have a place people could go to, to share there’s and get help. We all need somebody at times...if you ever need anything don't be afraid to let us know! We are here for anyone and everyone. We don’t have to go through it alone, -FamilyFaithWisdom 

 Last night I was up late thinking about my life and pondering over the relationships that have failed and ended. I was listening to a video about when you find your soulmate and I had a moment in God’s presence. I haven’t been very close with him this past year and it’s been making me feel terrible. I believe it’s part of the reason things haven’t worked out, I haven’t been including him in my life when it’s supposed to be all about Him. Well  I’ve found my way back and I’d just like to encourage you to come home today! He loves us and wants closeness with us, so let’s go back home

 This year we have such thing as Cancel Culture and we're allowing things that have been around for a very long time to be discontinued and canceled. Things such as Dr. Seuss...I mean what would Christmastime be like without the grouchy old Grinch? What if Horton had never heard a who? I am creating a blog that will be for those who still love the things are being canceled and the first post will be titled Cancel "Cancel Culture." Does this sound interesting to you? Would you participate? What are some things cancel culture has canceled that you loved? It will be a safe place where we can all come together, and where history/nostalgia is celebrated not canceled, old is the new, and Once Upon A Time is forever :)

 Today for this post we are heading into the emergency room for some treatment Lets say that you have a very rare illness that is fatal if not treated, however the treatment for this illness is not widely known, but there is this really special doctor who has reached out to you for a cure...it is a special medicine that was specifically crafted for this illness. This is exciting news for you and you immediately accept. Weeks later after the medicine has done its work, you are cured! A few months later, after being cured, you notice someone walking down the street and it doesn't seem like they are doing so well...they begin to take a turn for the worse so you call authorities and they rush them to the hospital. At first they couldn't figure out what was wrong but then they realized that it was a sickness, the same one you had months ago, but they don't know how to cure it. They prepare to tell the patient that there is no cure and they only have a little while to live...mean
