the captain's chair


today I went downtown to this sweet barber shop called the captain's chair.

I felt like I stepped back in time.

aside from the nautical theme, it was just like I imagined it. glass store front with the chairs facing out, people walking by and waving to the barber as he cut your hair, chit chat about what's going on in town, and a classy hair cut for a good price.

above anything, it was an experience. one that I will definitely do again. it was just a break from life, a transportation to a time that seemed simpler. it was peaceful and beautiful.

plus, now I am lookin' good.

have a good week!

God-centered living

lately I've really discovered that life is more manageable when I let God be my center.

for lent, I've been trying to read the Bible everyday. sure, I haven't succeeded, but I'm working on it. and there has been a noticeable difference on the days that I have. it wasn't that I had less to do or anything, I just felt like things weren't as stressful, and I really think that God is the reason.

so if anything, I'd encourage anyone reading this to start their day off with a prayer, and just ask for guidance through the day.

you never know what He will do.
