Chubbs, that calm that comes with freshly fallen snow, husband, a bowl of ice cream, time spent with my KDDDD sisters.
ReplyDeleteThose brief moments when I can be detatched from the stress, emotions, worries of daily life. When I can relax my mind and listen to music or words reminding me that God is completely in love with me. When I am deep in prayer. When I am with my family.
