Hi-there, hey-there, ho-there!
I’m Jazzy, author of crazy stories and devote ice-cream lover. Welcome to my little blog. Your end is near.
*dramatic music building to a climax*
*music dying as I stare at you, vainly trying to scare you*
You don’t find me daunting? Okey-dokey, well what if I told you I have seven siblings? Or that I am a maniacal blogger with a ditzy edge and an evil laugh?
Some say I’m pessimistic. Others say I smile entirely too much. And what do I say? I say I’m a pessimist that smiles entirely too much. That’s actually not entirely true. Guess which part it is false, if you can. ;)
Ehem. Anyways, despite the opinion of an unlikely frienemy(he was the first person to say that I was a pessimist.), I love my life. With all my heart, I really do. Even with all my younger siblings, and the infinite supply of dirty diapers. I love it! Uh, not the diapers. My life. I love my life.
I’m a dreamer of the future; believer of the truth; lover of anything truly beautiful. I’m a visionary, a romantic, and a very outlandish brainstormer. Since a couple years ago, I’ve loved to sing and try to make music with the piano and violin. That’s going about as well as my growth– zilch progress. I’m still under 5’5. But, a girl can dream. Praise God for the imagination, right?
I have way too many hobbies, but my hobbies are like the waves in the ocean; the waters are always changing. One element that is forever dancing with the current is my love for my king and Savior. I love Him, I praise Him, I write for Him.
That’s why I have this blog! Well, at least one of the reasons.
Since I was eleven, I’ve always liked to write. I’d read a book, then mimic the writing style in a short story. Things began to get interesting when we found a dead deer in our back pasture and I described the carcass. Why in the known world would I do that, I have no idea. Strange thoughts of a silly little girl, right?
Following that incident, I went all bizarre. I read The Gates of Heaven series and began writing with C.S. Lakin’s style which is, well, terribly mature for the age I was at! I would scare myself at night as I sat at my desk, letting my pencil scribble freely. I would have these dramatic movies playing in my mind scaring me so bad. I would cry for my characters if they endured heartbreaking things. Was I crazy?
Probably. But I grew out of that. *scoffing at myself* I'll just keep telling myself I'm not crazy. : )
Back to my writing journey, I have already filled up enumerable notebooks and my computer with hundreds of documents, scribbles, and painfully structured stories with misspelled words.
Then I decided to begin my blog. Except, I try my best to exclude the “painfully structured stories with misspelled words”. It's a working progress, you know? It won't happen over night. Nope, takes time and practice like anything.
For year one, I named my blog The Hydden Chronicles. But that lasted for only a short time, since I wanted to save that name for a book I would write about the farm and our adventurers there. Now, I have renamed it The Truths of My Heart, because:
I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God…”
Romans 1:16
The truths that I know in my heart, from reading God’s word, is why you’re reading this right now. That’s what I write about. Because I’m not ashamed. We live in a world that hates people that proclaim love to the Father like I do in my posts.
My God is the King. THE KING. He is always on the tippy-top.
Okay, but you'll read about all that good stuff on my blog. I get pretty passionate. I hope when you do read, it will be a blessing and an entertaining adventure! An escapade encumbered with nothing but good laughs, encouraging words, and french fries…
To rap it up, here’s a short summary of the "Jazzy" in me:
-I’m great at changing diapers,
-sneezing really loud,
-saying “ouch” when I bump something I’m holding into something else,
-jumping or just raising my legs up when I see a ‘roach,
-and saying “oops” more than once when trying to style or cut hair…
-I scare children. If you have cute kids, avoid me. I eat them whole.
-I sweat a lot. Sparkle definitely does not cover the perspiration storm I am cursed with. Ugh. :/
-I’m allergic to nuts, but I love them
-my favorite book series is the Sword of Lyric
-(yes, a book series and a favorite book is different.) my favorite book is either From the Dark to the Dawn, or My Heart Remembers. It’s an ongoing battle.
-I want to be a missionary.
-Before I become a missionary, I want to go to nursing school and midwifery.
-After I become a missionary, I want a ton of kids.
-If I don't become a missionary, I want to be a nurse/midwife, mommy, wife, homeschool teach for my littles, blogger, and part-time author.
-If I die before any of that happens, I want my death to be noble and memorable. Like, be in Burma on a mission trip, be captured by the officials for being a Christian, and brought to the prisons… then die there while teaching and preaching the gospel. Yes, I want to be a shining light till my last breath.
"For the saints of God, and for the LAMB!"
Thanks for reading, and I hope you stay a bit and read some of my posts. :) Your end is still near. Don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten, friend. Hope your day is full of awesomeness, smiles, and good food! Bye!
Jazzy ;)
