04 | Time is something we can never get back.

As I get older, I’m realizing that time is one of the most valuable things we have and one of the easiest things to take for granted.

We always think there will be another day.

Another conversation.
Another family dinner.
Another chance to visit.
Another birthday.
Another “I love you.”
Another opportunity to spend time with the people we care about.

But life has a way of reminding us that we are not promised another tomorrow.

Some of the moments I once thought were ordinary are now memories I wish I could experience just one more time.

And that has changed the way I look at time.

I don't want to be so busy building a future that I forget to appreciate the people who are part of my present.

I don't want to keep saying “next time” when I can make time today.

Because money can be earned again.
Things can be replaced.
Opportunities can come again.

But time spent with someone can never be retrieved.

So I'm learning to be more intentional.

Call your parents.
Check on your friends.
Eat together.
Take the pictures.
Stay a little longer.
Listen to their stories.
Make time for the people you love.

Not because every moment has to be extraordinary, but because ordinary moments become precious when we realize we can't have them back.

At 27, I’m learning that one of the greatest ways we can love someone is simply to give them our time.

Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.”— Psalm 90:12

Time is a gift from God. And I want to spend mine on the people and things that truly matter. 💛

03 | I don't have to have everything figured out

There was a time when I thought that by 27, I should already have everything figured out.

I thought I should know exactly where my career was going, what my future would look like, where I would be in life, and what the next five or ten years would bring.

But life doesn't really work that way, does it?

There were plans I was so sure about that didn't happen. Things I prayed for that didn't come at the time I expected. Paths I thought I would take that eventually led somewhere completely different.

And honestly, sometimes that scared me.

Because uncertainty can make you feel like you're doing something wrong.

But I'm slowly learning that not having everything figured out doesn't mean I'm lost.

Sometimes, it simply means I'm still becoming.

I'm allowed to change my mind.
I'm allowed to start over.
I'm allowed to outgrow old dreams.
I'm allowed to take a different path.
I'm allowed to not know what's next.

I don't need to have the whole map when God is asking me to trust Him one step at a time.

Maybe this season isn't about having all the answers. Maybe it's about learning who I am, growing in faith, becoming wiser, and trusting God with the parts of my life I cannot yet understand.

At 27, I still have so many questions.

But I also have peace knowing that I don't need to figure out my entire life today.

I just need to take the next step, stay faithful in the season I'm in, and trust the One who already knows where I'm going.

I'm not late. I'm not lost. I'm still becoming. And that's okay.💛

“Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.”
— Proverbs 3:5–6

100 days before Christmas! 🎄

It’s been raining for months now. The weather has been so extreme one moment, the rain pours so hard, and then when the sun finally comes out, the heat feels just as intense.

On my way home from work today, I stumbled upon this beautiful blooming flower. 🌸 And somehow, it felt like a little reminder from God.

Even in seasons that feel heavy, uncertain, or uncomfortable, there is still beauty growing around us. Sometimes, we become so caught up with the storms, the heat, the waiting, and everything we have to carry that we forget to notice the little things God places along the way.

This flower reminded me that God is still at work, even when I cannot see it. A flower doesn’t rush its blooming. It simply grows in the season God designed for it. And maybe I need that reminder too that I don’t have to rush, compare, or feel behind.

There is beauty in the waiting. There is a purpose in every season. And even after the rain, God can still bring something beautiful to bloom.

Today, I’m reminded to slow down, look around, and be grateful for the little blessings I might otherwise take for granted.

Maybe this was God’s gentle reminder to me today: “I am still here. I am still working. Trust My timing.”

100 days to Christmas, and another day to remember that God is faithful through every season. 💛

02 | My identity is more than what I accomplish

For the longest time, I thought I had to accomplish something to feel like I was doing well in life.

A good job. Financial stability. A successful career. Being where I thought I was supposed to be by a certain age.

And when I didn't have some of those things figured out, I started questioning myself.

“Am I doing enough?”
“Am I successful enough?”
“Why does it feel like everyone is ahead of me?”

I realized how easy it is to attach our worth to the things we can show the position we have, the money we earn, the things we own, the milestones we reach, or even the way other people see us.

But God has been teaching me something deeper:

I am valuable even when I haven't achieved everything I hoped for.

My worth doesn't increase when I succeed, and it doesn't disappear when I fail.

I don't have to constantly prove that I am worthy of love, respect, or belonging.

Before I became anything, I was already known and loved by God.

And maybe that's something I needed to learn before turning 27 that I am a person before I am a title, a career, a relationship status, or an achievement.

There is still so much I want to accomplish, and I still have dreams I'm praying for. But I don't want to spend my life chasing achievements just to prove that I'm enough.

I want to work hard, but without forgetting who I am.
I want to dream, but without making my dreams my identity.
I want to grow, but without constantly feeling like I'm not enough.

Because at the end of the day, my worth was never something I had to earn.

And neither is yours. 💛

01 | God will always make a way. 🤍

There were seasons when I honestly thought I was falling behind.

I would look around and see people my age reaching milestones building careers, finding love, becoming financially stable, traveling, achieving their dreams and I would quietly ask myself, “What about me? Am I doing enough? Am I where I’m supposed to be?”

Sometimes, the pressure wasn't even coming from other people. It was coming from me. From comparing my life to timelines I thought I was supposed to follow.

But little by little, God reminded me that my life was never meant to be measured by the world's timeline.

There were prayers I thought God had forgotten. Doors that didn't open no matter how hard I tried. Plans that didn't happen the way I imagined. And moments when I couldn't understand why God was allowing me to wait.

But looking back, I can see that He was working even in the silence.

He was making a way where I couldn't see one. He was teaching me to wait, to trust, and to surrender the things I desperately wanted to control.

I am learning that I am seen. I am loved. I am not forgotten.

I don't have to rush just because everyone else seems to be moving faster. I don't have to prove that my life is successful according to the standards of this world.

I am not behind.

God's timing is different from mine, but it has never been without purpose.

So if you're also in a season of waiting, wondering if you're falling behind, I hope you remember this:

God is still working. Even when you can't see it.
God is still writing your story. Even when the page feels blank.
And God will always make a way.

I may not know what the next chapter holds, but I know Who holds my future. And for now, that's enough. 💛

Archive 01. A little archive of lessons, memories, and becoming. ✨

This page is a space where I’ll keep little pieces of life—things I’ve learned, moments I want to remember, and reflections from the seasons that shaped me.

As I step into 27, I’m sharing 27 things I’ve learned before turning 27. Not because I have life figured out, but because these are lessons I’ve gathered along the way—through joy, loss, waiting, growing, mistakes, relationships, and most of all, learning to trust God.

I’ll be sharing them here as a thread, one lesson at a time. Maybe some will resonate with you, maybe some will remind you of your own journey, or maybe one of these words is exactly what someone needs to hear today.

This is not a list of things I know. It’s a collection of things life has taught me.

Here’s to growing, unlearning, becoming, and trusting God through it all. 🥂

27 lessons. One journey. Still becoming. 💛
