sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.
Hoy experimente llorar por sentirme muy amada, mi esposo me escribe poemas desde que nos conocimos, fue un factor importante que creó un lazo bien único entre nosotros, estoy en vísperas de mis 30 y ahora me escribió este poema como regalo, merece tener un espacio acá porque es un poeta incógnito y que honor ser fuente de inspiración.

The post is a heartfelt call to modern Christian parents, mentors, and coaches: stop trying to filter everything, build a foundation instead. With biblical truth and personal vulnerability, this reflection reminds readers that God doesn’t need perfect parents. He just asks for faithful ones. You don’t need to predict the future to raise disciples who can thrive in it.

Burnout doesn’t always mean you’re doing too much.
Sometimes it means you’re carrying things God never assigned to you.
People tend to wear exhaustion like a badge of honor but Jesus never asked us to run ourselves into the ground.
He said, “My yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
If what you’re carrying feels like it’s crushing you, it might be time to reevaluate who assigned it.

Be bored more often.
Go for long walks. Meditate. Journal your thoughts. Read new books. Spend time alone without devices. You would get to understand yourself a lot much better. Your brain gets the best ideas when it is left to wander.
In those quiet moments, you'll uncover clarity and inspiration that can't be found in constant stimulation.

We’re not raising our kids for the world we grew up in. We’re preparing them for a world of AI, algorithmic influence, and moral confusion. In this deeply personal reflection, I share five anchors of biblical truth I teach my children to help them stand firm in a world we can’t predict. Discipleship, not control, is the answer, and hope is still alive on the sidelines.

I might get slightly bashed for this one—but just my personal intake;
Can we please stop giving the “universe” credit for what GOD is doing?
It’s not the stars aligning — it’s the Savior making a way.
Doors don’t just open on their own. That’s GOD.
Let’s start calling it what it is and giving honor where it’s due.

Not on the doorstep where they'd be visible.
Behind the planter. Where only someone who lives here would think to look.

5 Times to Choose Silence:
1. Be silent when someone is teaching you something new.
2. Be silent if you're about to criticize without a solution.
3. Be silent when your words might add fuel to rumors.
4. Be silent when your heart needs time to heal.
5. Be silent if speaking might disrupt a peaceful moment.
I almost quit Substack. Not because I didn’t enjoy writing.
Because I felt like nobody was reading.
Then, I got a DM that said, “Your advice helped me get started. I read everything you write. Thank you.”
That message meant everything to me. Now, when I write I think about that one person.
I decided I’m not writing to go viral. I’m writing for impact.
