Im not the girl with the best friend
But Ive had many

In this life, Ive learned that friends sometimes go with seasons and I’m grateful for those I crossed paths with
But I would be lying if I said heartbreak never existed when they left me

Somewhere between FaceTime calls and late night conversations, mid-day pick-me-ups and sharing memes, the energy shifted

Phone calls became rare
Getting together, even more so
And check-ins vanished

Was I a bad friend?
Or was it just that our season ended?

It’s a weird feeling
To know someone so well
And then to not know them at all
But also accepting that people change
That what once was meant for us, now required change
A chance to grow
A chance to move forward
Coming into whatever chapter was meant for us
But apart from one another

I still miss them
I still hope the best for them
I pray they get every blessing they ever wished for

Seasons change
I’ve accepted that
Sometimes with the lump in my throat
And my voice too small to speak on it until now

I’m not the girl with a best friend
But I’ve been one to many

I just love them from a distance now

I’m currently living a moment in time I once prayed for

Through heartbreak, heartache, loss, desperation, growth and healing

It all led me here and I believe it was all in His timing 🙏🏼

Yesterday, I received a little something from my special someone and I’m so grateful our relationship has gotten even stronger since digging deeper into our faith. Never perfect, but always good.

I love you so much @d1327 😘💖

My Dearest Deanna,

Today we celebrate 3 years of loving one another, and although we still don’t agree on this official date, it was 3 years ago that I read a poem to you and then you asked me if I wanted to be your girlfriend? To which I replied, “YES!”

To this day, I still remember the exact moment I fell in love with you and choosing to love you daily remains to be my favorite

You are my home
My love
My heart

I love doing life with you and love you so much

Happy Anniversary my love 🤍

This past weekend we got to celebrate the life of Pete Torres, my Auntie BurBur’s beloved husband and my cousins stepdad and bonus grandpa

The amount of love poured out whether through stories shared and music played, Pete was very loved and with us spiritually

Regardless of the circumstances, I was happy to see these beautiful faces again.

Tomorrow is never ever promised, so hug those close to you and tell those you care about that you love them often ❤️

Continued prayers for my family, love you guys. by @ceemareeoh

For those that ever wonder why Pride Month matters I encourage you to watch this documentary

Love matters in all forms

Nobody should have to hide or be shamed for simply loving one another

We aren’t “shoving” our lifestyle in your face

Most of us simply just want to exist without fear

To our Allies: Thank you for seeing us 🫶🏼

Today was our first time attending Pride Sunday @oceansidesanctuary and it was a beautiful service

To find our place here and be fully accepted as we are has been such a beautiful experience

I’ve always carried my faith with me but I have been “questioned” as to how I could be gay and also consider myself to be a Christian and my response is always the same:

My relationship with God has been constant and I have seen the blessings He has granted me in this life

I meet everyone with kindness
I genuinely love on those around me
I don’t judge others
I help others when I can
I pray for others (as I am called upon-yes I hear his voice in my head)

All principles that I feel qualify as “being a good Christian”

Being in community today with the message that “All are Welcome at His Table” solidified that I’ve been walking on the right path and I’m glad we found our way back to a church home

A little #appreciationpost💕 for this one right here

To say we have been “going through it” these past several months would be an understatement

It’s easy to have a partner when life is good but to really have a rock through rough waters builds a different kind of love, which I’m so grateful we have

Through it all this one sticks with me and without skipping a beat also stepped in as my full-time assistant with all things related to @tipsytinabartending

To My Love @d1327,

Thanks for all you do!

I look forward to this new chapter we are stepping into with deepening our faith, aligning new goals, making memories, planning new adventures and just being together. I love you so much! 💖

My Faith has always remained strong and I have many testimonies of Him carrying me through, even in the darkest of times and I’ve seen His blessings around me, always.

About 6 months (or so) ago, my partner and I actively started watching church sermons from local congregations but we really wanted to find a physical place we could go to worship, so about a month ago I asked a locals Facebook page, if there were inclusive congregations that were “accepting” of an lgbtq couple and @oceansidesanctuary was recommended more than a handful of times so we started watching online and looked forward to our Sunday’s to watch and listen.

But this past week, on Ash Wednesday, we were both called to join service, physically. Both nervous, unsure, but trusting the process and I’m so glad we did because we were able to share in a beautiful moment of feeling at “home” and our hearts filled with so much hope and love.

We are just two imperfect people and
God loves us just as we are.

My birthday is always a time for reflection on the past year and how I wish to move forward into the next

I’ve finally reached the point in my life where I make no apologies for who I am as a person or for the woman I am becoming. At the end of the day, I don’t worry about what others think of me because I know I lead my life with good intentions, always.

Sure I’ve made fair share of mistakes but one this I know for certain is that I’m a genuine person with a big heart, often times too big, and I’ll never change that about myself. It’s one of the best things about me.

I’ve learned that TIME is the greatest gift we will ever be granted in this life, so I want to make as many new memories as possible. My life is abundantly blessed and I’m grateful for this life I’ve been granted

In this next year, I’m setting the following goals/intentions:

Speaking kinder to myself (I’m my worst critic, I always have been) but I know self-love needs to be a top priority for me

Spending more time with Jesus-being intentional with my time with Him and more 1:1 conversations and leading my days with a more grateful heart

Doing things to feed my soul purpose (not doing things out of financial gain or obligation but simply doing things that ignite the fire within me)

Making new friends-I love my OG’s and I have a few good ones in my circle now, but I want to step out of my comfort zone for more growth within myself

I’m sure I could think of a few more to add to this list, but I think this is a good start

Thank you for all the beautiful wishes

Cheers to Chapter 39 🤍
