Welcome to My Daybook Online Journal<\/a><\/strong>. A weekly post here at The Littlest Way<\/strong> where I gather all the ordinary things that happen or are happening in my day to day. Things like what I\u2019m reading or listening to, eating, cleaning, and learning. These are the small moments that make up my blessed daily life and I want to remember them. My prompts may change depending on season and circumstance.<\/p>\n

Although maybe not noticeable to anyone other than me, this space has been a tiny bit quiet the past week. I've missed here but needed to work through or around a few things before I could be present here again. \u2063 \u2063 Maybe you'll understand (or not) as you read my love\/hate #fridayintroductions\u2063 below. \u2063 \u2063 💭Connection and conversation can be hard–in real life and online and I share below my thoughts on both.\u2063 \u2063 ❤️I love having intimate conversations about the ways God is working in someone's life. I saw this the other day,\u2063 \u2063 "intimate" = in to me\u2063 \u2063 When we share intimate conversations we're allowing someone to look into us and vice versa.\u2063 \u2063 🚫I hate being interrupted. I'm a deep thinker and I have to get out of my head and heart to be able to process. I have to talk to see and understand life–mine and others. \u2063 \u2063 When I can get outside of myself to process, I'm better able to be available to and for others. It's almost like I have to get myself out of the way to make room for them. \u2063 \u2063 I can't accurately describe what it feels like to start the process of processing things verbally and then be interrupted. I can tell you, it's actually painful.\u2063 \u2063 ❤️I love trying to understand people, places, things, situations. One of my favorite prayers is asking God to help me see things clearly and\/or to see things like He sees them–myself included.\u2063 \u2063 🚫I hate being misunderstood. It hurts in such a deep way…it's another one of those things I can't accurately explain but it literally hurts. And if I feel misunderstood more often than not I'll withdraw and quick!! \u2063 \u2063 The same goes for frustration. If I sense someone is frustrated with me, I'll retreat. I get frustrated with myself easily and often enough; I know what it feels like to be frustrated with me.\u2063 \u2063 \u2063 👉Here's the thing friends, these love\/hate points make me who I am…right now. \u2063 \u2063 I'm always striving to be more like Jesus and overcome those parts of myself that are less like Him while continuing to strengthen the few areas where I just might slightly resemble Him😊<\/a><\/p>\n
