“If we’re honest, our anger is with ourselves. We’re disappointed that we placed faith and trust in someone that we thought could do no wrong, but they did. Problem is: we’re all human, liable to make mistakes.” (c) Simone Holloway, 2018

I Am Too Proud To Beg
“Christmas is my favorite holiday because its the day God in goodness full of love gave the world a gift that was too good for it: His Son. He loved me enough to give me a piece of himself. And if the Creator gave himself so freely, why on earth should I have to beg someone to love me well? I don’t. Point, blank, periodt!” ©Simone Holloway, 2018
Steadfast Love
“I thought I trusted God. I did. I thought I understood His love for me, this notion that because He loves me He wouldn’t leave me without. Yet, my heart became increasingly full of fear and anxiety wrapped me in a bear hug as to say “Welcome Home!” Even in the midst of my perceived weakness, He never changed. He loved me with a steadfast love.” ©Simone Holloway, 2018
Holiday Anxiety
” I don’t know about you all, but I feel like we live in a world where we are always asked to supply answers to questions that we simply don’t have the answer to. For example, “How long will you be single?”; “When are you going to have some kids?”; “Girl, why you ain’t got a boyfriend?; “Girl, when are you getting married?” In my heart I want to scream, “I DON’T KNOW, DO I LOOK LIKE GOD?” but on the outside, I smile gracefully and say, “I don’t know. I’ll let you know when I find out.” I’m not going to let them know… I’m going to make all my announcements after the fact on social media. My family will find out about my life choices when the world finds out. Trifling? Yeah, I know. “
I Refuse To Remember

yet here I am. /Again, I realize that I made the right choice-/life changed the moment I chose me.” ©Simone Holloway, 2018
Fearless.
Hello old friends, new followers, and fellow bloggers- I think God is taking me on this incredibly, crazy, uncomfortable yet fulfilling journey. He is breaking the back of fear out of my life. My biggest desire has been to live a life that was fearless. One absent of apprehension, fear, and doubt- to be free…
Goodbye.
“There’s no way that I have an idol in my life. No way. I mean, I love God, right? Yes, we love God but there are things in our lives that we love more. That, ladies and gents is idolatry, the loving of something/someone more than the Father. “©Simone Holloway, 2018
Memories
“I still cannot forget about you. /Trust me, I tried. /I stood in the mirror and lied, /said that I didn’t love you anymore. “©Simone Holloway, 2018
A Lover of Love

This Is Love.
“The older I become, I realize that life is not about things and places but rather about our love relationships with people. The way we love a soul lasts for an eternity, whereas position, prestige and the riches of this world will only last a lifetime.”©Simone Holloway, 2018
