I've felt so disconnected from this space and writing here. I think it's because I've had something in my drafts since November, and I know I have to write it out. I procrastinate hard things. Especially delicate, true-to-my-heart things. Sigh. It's not comfortable or sparkly or exciting. BUT. It is important, and now is the time. I don't know how to start this, honestly. Here's hoping I'm able to communicate my heart and not just word vomit ALL over this blog post. Read with grace. Let this be a conversation starter, even if it's just a conversation with yourself. If you know me, I hope you know how much I love the people in my life. I adore them. (Like so much it hurts.) I've been spending time (11 months now) really thinking about community. What it looks like. What it means to me and in my life. For the first time, I've realized that friendship and community are not always the same thing. Try and follow my train of thought, if
I'm Jessica. Y'all, I love the Infl uence Network . LOVE. I was pretty pumped up to join this link-up and get to know my other Influ en tial sisters! (Did you know that you have influence? You. Yes.

I love making n ew friends. Seriously. Let's be real, invest-in-each-other-and-love-each- other friends. 2. I daydream a lot. I have so many things I want to accomplish. Right now, I'm trying to dec ipher between what I want and what God has fo r me. I'm hoping the two things are the same. You know the feeling? 3. I feel like time is passing so qu ickly. I keep gett
Couldn't resist myself with the title! Once something pops in my head, it's basically inevitable that I share it, which can be a favorite thing about me or a flaw. Your choice. ;) Just thought I'd share a few products I'm enjoying so far this summer. 1. This eye palate is amazing. Obviously, Hard Candy know what's up when it comes to eye makeup that stays put and enhances your irises! It retails for $6 at Walmart, and so far, I've collected two of them! I have the greens and purples. They also have browns and blues. Run, don't walk, ladies. 2. Olay BB Cream makes my morning routine easier in the summer months...and, let's face it, any other month when I'm too lazy for my whole routine. I tried (and liked) the Garnier bb cream, but I felt like it was much too dark for my skin. I think they've since developed a lighter shade as well. 3.
