Welcome

Welcome to Tea & Truth! I am so glad you decided to join me. Each post will reflect my sincere opinion on whatever subject lays heavily on my heart that day. You can expect to find topics such as politics, relationships, spiritual life, current events, and much more. I am just a city-born, small-town raised, conservative Christian girl with a passion to share my thoughts, wisdom, and revelations with the world around me. This said, if you care to join me in the adventures of everyday life in this beautifully bustling world we live in, go ahead. Carve out a few minutes of your time, and a deep breath of fresh air. I pray our time together will become as routine and refreshing as a long chat on the front porch. Grab yourself a cup of hot tea (or your beverage of choice), get comfortable, and settle in for a time of truth talks.

Revelations of My Defender

Do you ever feel like God is silent, late, or just plain confusing? Me too. Here is what He told me when I brought these thoughts to Him.

Women in the Military: Is It Truly a Success for Feminism?

For many years, the thought of women enlisting in our United States military was absurd. Now, in 2018, every effort is made in the name of feminism to point out the fact that there are many females currently serving. Feminists everywhere rejoiced when all five branches gave "the weaker sex" their fair shot. But was this really a total win for us ladies? Currently, the branches' websites are proud to display high physical standards for men and women alike.

Lessons Learned From a Lifetime of Snapshots

If you walk into my bedroom right now, chances are you will trip on something . Actually, probably more likely, multiple "somethings". In one corner, in a messy stack shoved against my dresser, lies a couple bulging photo albums, atop several worn, dirtied, smudged, and ripped collections of sloppily penciled-in thoughts. Not four feet above it rests a tidy shelf, boasting my collection of yearbooks from the four schools I attended. Okay, pick a number between one and three hundred-sixty. Now imagine you turn that many degrees in any direction. Wherever you end up, you are looking at more scattered song lyric journals, diaries, and random (filled) notebooks than you can count. Now, most would call this hoarding, and I am sure they are probably quite correct. But as I sit and surround myself in these dusty recordings of thoughts and memories, a very wonderful and unexplainable emotion of sentiment washes over me. Have you ever stumbled across something that you wrote back...
