"I feel overwhelmed lately. It’s the kind of overwhelmed that makes me want to sit and do nothing because I have no idea where to even start. It’s the kind of overwhelmed that makes the tears sting my eyes because I feel like such a failure in multiple areas of my life right now."

"Not only are you missing out on life, but we are turning away our children by the droves."

"One time, I spent 3 hours cooking an extravagant meal for a man only to be told 'I don’t really like that. I think I want Wendy’s tonight.' Tonight, my boyfriend said “thank you for cooking” after I put frozen chicken strips in the oven."

"He did not keep it together and we all cried. The entire flight I looked at the floor of the plane crying as I knew this fine gentleman is down there so I can sit here and eat dumb peanuts. I felt guilty and so sad."

"I heard someone screaming from across the street, a woman with a baby running away from this guy. I just knew something was wrong."

"I made eye contact with a lady who made a hand gesture for me to remove my birthmark from my face. I ignored her, but every time I would gaze her direction, she would make the same gesture. At the end of the service, the pastor asked if anyone had any final remarks. She stood up and stated, ‘I wanted the young lady to remove what was on her face.'"

I ask God not to spare them from trials but to sustain them through them.

Before I sacrificed time for you, your mother gladly sacrificed her body. Before I consoled you when you were upset, your mother consoled you with just the beat of her heart.
