Check out the hot new show- Fuerza Brutaaaa! <3




Chill at the Rooftop Lounge with amigos.




Boat charter with friends would be fun!





Hang gliding. Although risky- extreme & super fun!




Some other ideas... Not this Birthday but maybe next year. :*)

If only I could take a flight to Paris & visit the Buddha Bar! They have the most exquisite music and dining! Chic.



I'm thankful for all the Lord has provided in my life. I truly am. :*)
To another year walking with God & loving the people in my life. <3

"Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows."

Takin' a bike ride on the wild side!

On a lovely Saturday around noon, we planned a bike ride outing for the small group I host with CF. (CFmiami.org) We headed out from Palmetto Bay to Pinecrest & went to Wayside Marketplace! I love serving God, sharing amazing experiences with people, and just loving people. This was such a cool bonding opportunity for Amanda, Roly & I. Our small group ROCKS! :*D

Dreamboard <3



I've always had an interest in certain pictures, ideas, new recipes, events, and hobbies I want to pick up. I haven't filled it up entirely... It's a work in progress. I need to add a guitar, some books as I'ld like to publish books in the near future, and some other things that appeal to me.
I love using my board as an inspirational piece with quotes, favorite Bible verses, and miscellaneous things. hehe Hope you like it. <3

Dream it, wish it, believe it, make it. <3

Love is.



                "The best moments in life are the ones unplanned."-mailin

      
And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. 
Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him. I John 4:16

                
     Love is...

1. Saving the last bite of your favorite dessert
2. Sharing music that you love
3. Listening, even when you're sleepy
4. Thinking... "he/she would really love this"
5. Asking how are you feeling, & really mean it  
6. Truly genuinely loving 24/7
7. Trying to do something you've never done
8. Actually learning from mistakes
9. Giving up your comfort 
10. Sacrifice, in every sense of the word



Love is when ordinary life becomes extraordinary. -mailin  Y

God's will?

 
 Inspired by "Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart."Y
*Psalm 37:4    (my life verse)

 It often comes to mind, "what is God's will for my life?" Is the Lord going to speak to me if I stay quiet for a while? Will He write a note that will end up in my mailbox? (Not quite) Times have definitively changed and I believe although it may be a different form of communication, the Lord still speaks to us in many ways. It may be strange, but I look at situations in everyday life as an opportunity for the Lord to speak to me. When I consciously think of the Lord, He will bring something to my attention. The Lord may use several means of communicating with you, if you are open to Him. I just wanted to embrace that truth with you. The Lord is good to His people, He hears us and speaks to us in ways we may not always understand. He closes doors, paves the path for a new journey and is constantly desiring for us to seek Him. As a result of seeking the Lord, our desires become aligned with His will for our lives. It's like a magic formula! Except, each person has a unique one that cannot be replicated. 


I'm just saying, the Lord is there. He listens. He answers. Just open your heart door. Y



When you feel a tug on your heart strings: "For it is God who works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose." -Philippians 2:13


Wonder, what is God's will for my life?: "Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in ALL circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." -I Thessalonians 5:16-18


In the quiet place: "I will praise the Lord who counsels me, even at night my heart instructs me." -Psalm 16:7

Spotlight on Keira Christina Knightley*





 100% natural beauty...




My absolute favorite ad for Coco Mademoiselle.




One actress gains the title of exquisite beauty, that goes to Keira. 
(Which by the way, I claim for my future daughter. Love this name!)
Without a doubt, she is the most elegant and poised actress in Hollywood. 

A necklace, a top hat & a white shirt thrown over her thighs. Sexy!
You've got to love Chanel, I know I do! ;)
