I have written about love in the past, but it has been heavy on my heart to write about it again. I do not know where I fall on the religious spectrum. I was raised in a Christian household and primarily in the Southern Baptist Church. There were many good years spent at this place… Continue reading Love is patient

History of Bella’s Babbles Name
In a continued effort to add some variety to this blog I have been reading a bit about ways to enhance the blogging experience. While I was reading I came across a suggestion to share about the name of your blog. This caught my interest, and I was like, “I can do this!” Not long… Continue reading History of Bella’s Babbles Name
Day 16: Bootstrap Belle
I would like to share with you a short story character that I created. She is a kick ass lil’ miss, never letting anything keep her down and always being victorious at the end of the day. She has a sparkle in her eye that lets you know that she's got it and you… Continue reading Day 16: Bootstrap Belle
Manic Babbles
I have started three blogs so far today: One blog consisted of Kacey Musgrave lyrics, another one talked about snakes sloughing off their skin. And the third talked about anxiety being a large dark monster that is engulfing me. As I keep writing, the words are going everywhere, this way and that way, all zig… Continue reading Manic Babbles
The Little Things
This morning I sat quietly on the couch sipping coffee. I sat next to my spouse and we didn’t say a word. In place of our voices was the sound of birds chirping. It was a beautiful, harmonious orchestra of sound. I (for once) did not feel the need to talk, or chatter, babbling away… Continue reading The Little Things
Face masks and more
Last night, I FaceTimed with my parents, which is great, but it’s not the same as being with them in person. One may think our separation is due to COVID-19, and that has a part to do with it. Another part is that we live on opposite coasts. It’s been more than 3 years since… Continue reading Face masks and more

One may say, how is that possible in a time like now? With all that is going on, for heaven’s sake we are in the middle of a pandemic. How are… Continue reading Relief
I Love Art
I love art. To me art is an outlet of my creativity as well as my energy. When painting, each brush stroke allows me to take a deep breath and really feel what I am doing. To slowly emerge into the artwork and feel it deep down inside of my body. Every time I hot… Continue reading I Love Art
When there are no babbles
The below was composed yesterday, but inadvertently not posted. Babbles HAVE returned, but slowly and not so gracefully. Yesterday I was struggling to write. I was overcome with emotions and thoughts. However, when it came to placing them on paper, it just wasn’t working. I was off, just not in the right place to write. … Continue reading When there are no babbles
Bella’s Big Adventure: Perspective
The days are passing quickly. I suspect that it is due to being so busy. However, I feel like I am barely keeping my head above water so to speak, only getting done the bare minimum and my head is swimming with what still needs to be done before I leave for my big adventure.… Continue reading Bella’s Big Adventure: Perspective
