I haven't posted anything in a while because I've been thinking about some things. I've decided that I just don't have enough time right now to maintain a blog. Between writing my book, school and the many other things that make up my weekly schedule, I just don't have enough time to devote to this blog. It makes me sad but I know that if I wait a few more years then I'll have more time to blog and I can make it amazing. I've really enjoyed having a blog, but I just can't do it right now.
See you in the future,
Claire

Fight Back With Joy (and lame excuses)
Today, I'm going to share an amazing Bible study that I'm doing right now. It's entitled Fight Back With Joy by Margaret Feinburg.

This study has taught me so much already, and I'm only halfway through it. It's filled with funny stories, encouraging words of wisdom and little activities that make it fast-paced. Through the study I have been challenged to look for joy everywhere, even when it doesn't make sense. I have started a "joy-bomb" journal where I record all of the joy in my life, from the tiny things to the huge, life-changing events. The journal has helped me to see the beauty in the tiny details of my life and realize that my life is really amazing.
Because I am so ashamed of the "shortness" of this post, here are some links and an excuse:
I have a pretty busy life. I'm in tenth grade, writing a novel, working on two knitting projects, I'm in Karate, I ride my bike every morning, I'm reading The Grand Sophy by Georgette Heyer for fun, I have piano lessons once a week and I have a blog to maintain... It's a lot, but I love my life and wouldn't trade it for a world of peace, relaxation and plenty of time to do anything I want. It's nice to feel busy and never bored.
This may be the shortest post I have written yet. I have no excuse except that I forgot to think of an idea for this post.... Sorry. Let us hope that I have more inspiration come Thursday!
