Farewell

My dear fellow tumblr users, the day is finally here. I am leaving tumblr in order to prepare for my entrance to the Discalced Carmelites in Lafayette, LA. My entrance day is September 30, 2017 (in two weeks).

It’s with joy and a little sadness that I leave you. You guys have been a wonderful and invaluable source of strength, encouragement, prayer, inspiration, love, support and so much more. Please know how grateful I am to all of you.

I’m so thankful and humbled by all the messages I’ve received in these final days of being on tumblr. The outpouring of love and support has truly been incredible. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I will miss you all, my dear tumblr family, and I keep you and your intentions in prayer always. As always, please continue to pray for me, my family, and my future community.

You guys are the best. I will see you in heaven. God speed!!

You are not stupid. You are not ugly. You are not worthless. You are not weak. You are not a burden. Your anxiety is lying to you.

A Christian has an obligation to serve his creator not only with the soul but also with the body. This refutes the false position of certain Christians, who live physically as pagans, while praising themselves that they believe in God and love God with their souls. -St. Nicholai of Zica

St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly hosts, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan, and all the evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.. #CatholicConnect

I’m secretly hoping someone will fall in love with my beautiful interior and spiritual life because my exterior and physical life leaves a lot to be desired.

In case no one’s told you lately:

You’re not a burden.

It’s okay to be struggling.

It’s okay to tell people you’re struggling.

Please tell people you’re struggling.

Don’t suffer in silence. Tell someone. Get help.

It’s okay to need help.

Please get yourself help.

You’re not the exception to recovery.

The world is more beautiful because you’re in it.

You’re worth it.

You’re a good person.

Thank you for existing.

You’re beautiful.

You’re not the exception to recovery.

Please stay alive.

If you’re looking for a sign not to kill yourself, this is it.

Please, stay alive.

People love you.

I love you.

Don’t give up.

You’re not the exception to recovery.

You’re not the exception to recovery.

We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature – trees, flowers, grass – grows in silence; see the stars, the moon, and the sun, how they move in silence… we need silence to be able to touch souls.”
