About MeWell hey! I'm Valencia. You can call me V. I'm in my late twenties, trying to figure out life like everybody else. While I'm 20..plus...ish in real life, I'm convinced that I'm old enough to apply for social security inside lol. As I said before, I've grown up in church all of my life (COGIC girl through & through!). I could count the Sundays I wasn't at somebody's church, & it'd probably be 15...max. Yet, with all that time I spent in church, I didn't really know God for myself until I was in school at THE University of Texas at Austin (hook 'em horns!!). Maybe it was me being out there by myself. Maybe it was me being tired of going to church, hearing somebody tell me that I was free, & walking out as bound & wounded as I was the week before. Maybe I was tired of playing the game & wearing the mask. Regardless, my 4 years at UT have transformed my entire spiritual journey. It's real for me now, & hopefully, I'll help make it a little more real for you.
Now, I'm free from school. Working in the real world. Trying to be an adult and draw close to God despite the distractions. I'm trying to maintain my walk in my purpose. I'm trying to....rediscover myself. This is a new stage for me. So....here's to new phases and new stages. OH!! Some more extra info about me... |
