Poppy wants to live in a world where everyone's story matters, regardless of their income or way of life.

As a photographer, she's won ribbons at the county fair. As a spiritual seeker and writer, she's been featured in Jen Louden's The Life Organizer and once published an article at allthingsgirl.net.

When she's not writing or photographing her story, she can be found at her day job as a technology consultant, or at home snuggling her cats, or in the park, taking a walk with her husband.

Yearning

Yearning

Poppy Lochridge

I keep thinking about all of the posts I’m not writing.

I mean - like, something comes to me while I’m reading. “Oh, I should write about that,” I think, before I turn the page.

I’ve been working my way - slowly, because I do everything slowly right now - through a book on faith formation. I’m two chapters in, and I’d like to share my thoughts with you, maybe have a conversation.

I’ve been thinking over my words for this year. There are things I want to share about those.

You get the idea. I probably have a couple of drafts started, another book or three that I started reading and want to write about.

And then another 10 minutes pass, and I realize that I’m about to be running late for something, so I set the book - and my ideas - aside and GO.

I’m kinda yearning to not live like this right now. I want to connect more. And, like the rest of the world, I’m trying to figure out how to fit that into the life I have.

What are you choosing not to do right now so that you can follow your yearning?
