Hi! I’m Reba
A few things I am: a photographer, a creative, a writer, a seeker, an explorer, a believer, and a doubter. I like to write about faith and creativity because they are both beautiful and bizarre and life giving. I write because I don’t know, and because God somehow meets me in that unknowing. I hope that my journey gives others permission to wrestle, too.
I’m located a few miles outside of Nashville, Tennessee. I have a dog and a cat that keeps me entertained. I’m working on embracing the full spectrum of human experience.
My ethos:
- Recognizing the Inevitability of Messiness: Life is rarely a smooth, predictable journey. It’s filled with unexpected challenges, setbacks, and emotional turmoil. Acknowledging this messiness is the first step in making peace with it.
- Embracing Imperfection: The ideal of a perfectly organized and flawless life is often unrealistic and can lead to anxiety and stress. Embracing imperfections and mistakes allows for more self-compassion and resilience.
- Finding Beauty in the Ordinary: Even in the midst of chaos, there are often moments of beauty and wonder to be found. Paying attention to the details of everyday life can help us appreciate the richness of our experiences.
- Letting Go of Control: Trying to control every aspect of life can be exhausting and ultimately futile. Letting go of the need for control and embracing the unknown can lead to greater peace and freedom.
Here you’ll find fragments: journal prompts, images, and reflections on faith and solitude. They are not directions, but invitations. Step off the path. Carry your own pen. Notice the way the world reshapes itself when you let yourself be lost.
