About Me

By Anna Martin

As a full-time working student, it's very important for me to find hobbies and interests that fulfill me within my free time, whether it is traveling to new places, reading and writing, or exploring new hobbies. I love to spend my free time creatively.

I spent most of my life loving to write. As a kid, my journals were filled with random short stories, and I dreamed of becoming an author. Writing quickly became an outlet for me.

As if you are listening to a friend tell you a story, I hope to create a space where you can enjoy reading about the simple pleasures in life (and maybe find a new hobby)!

This is a struggle almost everyone can relate to. But it is important that we remember who our guiding light is – our Lord Jesus Christ.       John 14:27 says “Peace be with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid,” (NIV). The Lord gives us His peace, despite the world around us. So, we do not need to be fearful. All we must do is remember that the Lord is with us always, and with that faith we will be set free.
