"Rêve" meaning Dream in French~
I have so many dreams that I wish to follow.
So many things I want to do in my life~
It has been a difficult road lately, and I am praying for the light at the end of the tunnel~
It helps to keep busy around the house, keeping my mind occupied & hopeful~
I'm starting a part-time job next week so I can help my family through this rough patch~
Things will change, life will be busy, but sometimes a change is needed for the good.
Wish me luck!
Blessings ~
Melinda
Gorgeous images, I adore the mixture of textures and modern with old. Hope everything brightens up soon xxx
ReplyDeleteChange can be hard, even when it is one that you choose. Deep breath, things will be as they are intended. It just takes a bit of time.
ReplyDeleteYour photos are beautiful....keep your dreams alive. They will come to be.

Congratulations, Melinda, on being blog of the month at Savvy City Farmer. Well deserved!! I always enjoy seeing your changes. Moving a couple of things gives a fresh new look to a room. Your green bistro chairs add such a wonderful pop of color to your beautiful decor. My heart aches for you. Financial needs are one of the biggest stresses on a marriage and family. My husband and I have spent much time in the wilderness and going through very deep waters. The hardest thing is being forced to trust that God does love us and does care about his children, and that he is in control and is working out his purposes even when circumstances suggest otherwise.

You know, I've been going through some pretty big changes myself these past few weeks. And I agree, change can really scare you at times, but I believe in my heart that everything happens for a reason. Even if we don't know the reason at the time. We just have to trust and believe that.
ReplyDeleteTake care my friend,
Sue
Melinda, your post reminds me of a hard time I had a couple years ago, and I am so sorry that it is so hard for you right now. Life can be so discouraging sometimes, but you will accomplish your dreams in one way or another. You are far too talented to not.
ReplyDeleteYour photo's are very lovely! Wishing you and yours the best of luck! Have faith!
ReplyDeleteI know exactly what you mean and feel. Right now my first priority is to provide for my family so my creative journey takes a backseat most times. I hope you find the answers you search for. In the meantime, remember to continue nurturing your creative spirit, even if just for a moment here and there...it truly helps.

Melinda, best of luck on your new 'adventure' (maybe it will help to think of the job as an 'adventure'? :)
ReplyDeleteYour house pics look just stunning, as usual-I always enjoy them so much!

ReplyDelete...i have found that sometimes the faith required ~ to keep going,
ReplyDeletein those seemingly impossible seasons in life,
is much easier said than done.
and that in great times of need,
sometimes there is only your own broken heart to nurse your soul through.
~ and all the quite tears shed
would surely carry me to the sea...
yes dear Melinda, i have stood where you are,
i have felt the desperate, helplessness and begged for the answers as to why.
it has been said, that is always darkest before the light.
hang on dear Melinda, i have been following you for along time and have NEVER seen anyone try so hard as you...
i just know in my soul, that you will see the light shortly, and it WILL be beyond your wildest expectations, that's how our King rolls!
until then, take comfort in knowing that you have a sister in Him, praying for comfort of your troubled heart and for a most sweet resolve...
