i wanted to write a little “statement of faith” on my about page as to why i blog, what i blog about, and why. i want to keep this as my own reference whenever i start to question if i should post certain things on here or not… first and foremost, i want my blog to bring Christ glory rather than bring myself recognition. writing is one way that i can get my thoughts out, and i love to share about what i am learning and what the Lord is teaching me. my goal is not to write or share things for others’ approval, comments, etc.

for me, a blog is an online journal…a place to post pictures of our day to day life, family trips, and other special moments. a lot of those special moments through out the day i don’t always have a camera in my hand, and i love that. but for the moments that i do get to photograph, they are all a part of our journey. this is a great place for me to continue to use my photography and a wonderful artistic outlet. my goal is not to portray like i live a perfect live- because i certainly do not- although i do feel very blessed and am definitely thankful.

i don’t ever want to focus too much on materialism and fashion- or to be a stumbling block and cause others to covet or envy. as much as i do have an interest in fashion, i want to focus on the eternal more than the temporary.

in the end, this blog is just a small piece of my life. if it can be an encouragement in any small or big way, than praise the Lord. like mother teresa once said:

i hope you are having a beautiful day! thank you so much for all the sweet comments on my last post.

love,
arielle
