Giving is always better than Receiving

I am a house mother for a home for abused and neglected children. This ministry cares for 14 different boys and girls who have been removed from their homes. These children have often been victims of abuse and neglect. Though it is a tough situation, my job is to make a difference.

Yesterday we allowed the children to open their presents and the energy in the room was slightly evil. Children were about to cry, children were jealous of what other children received, the children were not very appreciative at all. Out of 13 children there were only 2 thank you's!  My heart was disgusted.  I wanted to drown my disappointment in wine but instead we decided to wake up the next morning and take the children on a little adventure. We took all those extra presents they wouldn't really appreciate and piled them all in a van and made them give their own presents to children who didn't have any. We even took them to pass out things at the homeless shelter. Today was a beautiful day. Hopefully we made someone's day!

One Down

Let the adventure begin! I really want to have some fun creating ways to make people laugh and have fun or just be someone's entertainment. I hope to bring joy and inspire someone...eventually.  With my first You Tube video behind me, I'm sure I'm off to a great journey. Like. Subscribe. Comment! Lets do this!

In the beginning

I just turned 23 and naturally I’m starting to feel a little old. Though many would disagree, I personally feel as if I haven’t accomplished much at all.  As long as I can remember art has been my bestfriend and I wish to share it but getting out of my comfort zone has always been a challenge; but that is about to change. I want to combine my passion for the arts with my purpose of helping others.

I created a vision board in my bible study group about a positive , empowering YouTube channel for young women.  I’m not sure how I’m going to do it but its worth a try.

 

 

I’ve been inspired by Shamless Maya to share my art and therefore.. I’m going to do just that! What is a gift for if you never use it? So, my first video will be posted tonight! Here goes nothing.
