About Aves
To be honest, I struggle with these “about me” type of things. It’s not because I don’t know who I am, but if we are honest I am still figuring that out to, but its because I’d way rather sit down or go for a drive or a walk or anything and talk with you; Id rather us have a conversation about our favorites, our dreams and big ideas, what is on our hearts, the things and places and all the little things that make us uniquely us. So, I guess that is something, or rather 3 things — I love connecting with people and listening and learning about who they are and why, I love coffee and real coffee not the fake stuff, and I love living life, to adventure and do things, go places.
Amidst all these activities it wouldn’t be quite accurate if I didn’t document it either on my phone or my camera, which is usually a must on an adventure with me!
I love to enjoy the little things and soak life in; I love to laugh, to dream, a good ol hug, to think, to read a great book, watch a sunset/sunrise, see nature, hear a really good song, learn something new, have a really great cup of coffee, to listen to others and gain perspectives, to hear stories, cozy up in my favorite oversized sweater (which I obvi thrifted), find a cool place for my hammock, to capture that amazing moment with my camera, go for an adventure in my trusty chacos, to encourage someone, to cry and be raw and have a real connection.
I am immeasurably blessed with an incredible family and out of this world friends. I would not be where I am and who I am without my support system, my people, my tribe, all beside me. Everyday I am reminded and thank God for such incredible people!
Wihtout God none of these things in life would matter or be as great. I can honestly say there is nothing more soul fulfilling, life giving, sing from the top of my lungs, dance with my whole being, hug and squeeze so tightly, cry from the bottom of my heart joy and love that I experience than and because of my relationship with God. It is what makes those connections with people so refreshing, those cups of coffee so satisfying, nature so breathtaking, books so good, hugs so essential, listening so vital, hope so tangible, friends so crucial and love so real. So so very real, and I feel like i’ve only scratched the surface of the greatness of Gods love.
I know this adventure before me will stretch and challenge me in every aspect, but I also know it will change me for the best. I am embracing it in all its unknowns and saying yes to whatever God leads our team to.
Anywho, so that’s a “summary” of who I am — If you’ve made it this far, you now know why I struggle with these… 🙂
