Who I Am

I've started and erased this page at least a dozen times already, finding it so very challenging to distill who I am down to a cohesive strand of words and sentences.  This is my best attempt.

I am Angelina.

I am a mother, daughter, sister, wife, friend, woman.  I am a writer, photographer, gardener, yogi, meditator, spiritual. 

After finding myself lost, confused, and depressed in a career that was slowly suffocating my soul, I jumped ship and am on a journey back to myself.  Slowly relearning who I am and what I like.  Tediously finding my footing, my voice and my purpose. Choosing joy, love, and hope (I am a reformed pessimist).  Learning to seek the beauty in every moment.  Discovering what makes my heart happy and nourishes my soul. 

Here I weave pictures with words to tell about my days with my girls, the stirrings of my soul, my challenges, my strengths, my truth.  I hope that my words might find their way to any soul who might need them, who needs to feel understood, less alone, more loved, and to know that where you are is so completely OK.

Thank you.  My deepest gratitude to you for stopping by.
