INSTAGRAM IS MY INSTA-JAM / @ELLIEBE_

For a long time I took pride in people saying to me, “You just have it all together!” I was a pro at making it look like everything was running smoothly and going well. That was success to me. Inside though, I was still human. Emotions, thoughts, lies... they ran rampant. Running in circles in my mind. Until, slowly, I began to crack. And I was afraid of the cracks at first, as if I had landed on a glacier and I was skirting around the deep crevices created in the ice. But the people around me began to pull those lies out of me and help replace them with the truth. And through it all, I’m learning that while letting humanity spill out of me can be messy and painful, those cracks? They also let the Light in.
“If we commit ourselves to one person for life, this is not, as many people think, a rejection of freedom; rather, it demands the courage to move into all the risks of freedom, and the risk of love which is permanent; into that love which is not possession but participation.” Madeleine L’Engle ✨
I’m the oldest of six children and we always introduce our family as having “five girls, and the youngest is a boy.” (Usually what follows that is, “Aww, poor kid!” Don’t worry. He loves us and we’re pretty much obsessed with him. 😉) Growing up in a house full of girls was exciting, **emotional**, and incredibly special. I can’t believe I get to be their older sister and biggest cheerleader. One of my sisters, Emily, drew us (she didn’t draw herself, I’m waiting on that one...) but I’m just in awe of her talent and had to share. ✨
A homemade honey latte by @ashleylaurensnyder on this lazy Saturday morning? I could do this all day.
