How many times do we see someone, probably weekly, and we don't even know who they really are? We have no idea what their passions are, what they think about certain things, or even what compels them to be the way that they are? How many times do we say "Oh yeah, so and so is my friend" but we don't ever sit down and really take the time to sit down, have a chat, and go from being just acquaintances, to friends? We all have extremely busy lives, and that's one reason I wanted to start this. I'm not doing this because it's the cool new hip thing to do. I want to provide a "window" into who Daniela Velez really is. I don't want to blog about trendy things, or something cool that I don't really believe in, but I want to provide a way for people to know what God is doing in and through me, what my passions are, what I dislike around me, who I really am.
I will probably offend some people with what I write. I'm not going to sugar coat what goes on in MY mind. You are more than welcome to unfollow at any time :)
(Just my disclaimer, I would love it if people actually stuck around.)
Let's start of with a formal introduction.
My name is Daniela Velez. I was born in Medellin, Colombia. And right now, my life is kind of all over the place. It usually doesn't work out this way, but on the inside, I'm very at peace. I am enjoying watching myself grow physically, spiritually, and emotionally. Outside though, life seems chaotic. Some things don't make sense. I feel like a part of my world is slowly falling apart and I can't really help it. I will go into detail about that on a later day, but through all of this, I have one constant. Despite my emotional breakdowns, and spiritual highs, and confusion and tears, and happiness and sadness, there is Jesus. He is my constant. He is the one thing in my life that never changes. He loves me and I know He loves me. If the world around me crumbles one day (God forbid), I know for sure that he will be lifting me out of the rubbish. He is Mine and I am His.
Here we go.
This is me. This is my window, and I look forward to giving you a glimpse.
Beautiful, beautiful
