An Easter to Remember | Personal

    The Day I Stopped Hustling | Personal

    Hustle. The new catch phrase of the creative world; it’s on cute mugs and t-shirts. Just Hustle. But when did hustling become a good thing? You might as well say, “hurry” and get things done faster. Now believe me, I have “hustled” with the best of them. I have tried to do it all –...

    • Brenda's Wedding BlogYou have no idea how much I LOVE this!!!! I’m not a fan of this "hustle" mentality that’s everywhere now. I’m a believer that more good comes out of taking things one step at a time. Hustling does not mean more money – it usually means less quality work because everything is rushed.

    • Delaney DobsonIt’s true. We lose sight of what is around us when we are hurrying through everything. I played sports as a kid and we were always told to hustle. When I was in school, I was told to hurry through the learning process. While it might have been appropriate then, it isn’t true in all things. Thanks for the inspiration.

    • Rachel GreimanThis is so true! I recently saw a quote, something like, "Family. Friends. Work. Fitness. Fun. … Pick 3."

      And I can’t help but think that’s accurate. We can only give devoted attention to so many things before we start dropping things. I’m having to learn to be gentle with myself through different seasons as my focus shifts from different things. Thanks for the reminder that hustle isn’t always worth it!

    The Cat who Sits | Whiskey’s Story

    cat who sits, whiskey, newport news, Virginia, Diana Gordon Photography, photo

    Whiskey has a sad but sweet story. I actually saw Whiskey outside our townhouse several times just walking the neighborhood and hiding in the sewer drain. I just assumed he was someone’s pet. A few times he would meow and come all the way up to our porch and roll around. He would rub against...

      It wasn’t love at first sight | Our Story

      It wasn’t love at first sight. We didn’t meet in an adorable way, immediately fall in love and live happily ever after. And most people don’t. I have learned that unlike the Disney movies, Nicholas Sparks’ books, and in our culture, most people actually have a developing love story not a cliche love tagline. We...
