Hi.

Welcome to my blog. I live to be inspired, so that I can inspire others. The lessons I’ve learned through walking through the valley of the shadow of death have taught me 3 things:

Love redeems.

Joy comes.

Resurrection exists.

These are the themes I write about.

New Beginnings

New Beginnings

Dear Friends, Family - and those who are stumbling upon this page:

Welcome to the new blog!

For a while now, the old blog site, “Eat, Drink, and Be Married” hasn’t really fit. Well…a while now: 3 years, to be exact. …and, as my life has grown since Dan’s death, the url “dannyboyandjgirl” didn’t quite fit anymore either.

But, goodbyes are hard.

…and letting go, even harder.

Some might call this a new page. a new chapter. a new beginning.

Some call it progress.

Some call it forward.

The old-guard, the out-of-touch call it “on” - as in moving on.

What do I call it?

I don’t know…stepping into myself. Stepping toward life. Embracing the possibilities of what is to come.

Yes. This blog is a step toward embracing what is to come - while treasuring in my heart all that has been.

Yes. This is “jessicakiesling.me” - and those sentences above are probably the truest encapsulation of me I’ve yet to write.

The good news? You can still access all of my old stuff through the ‘Eat, Drink, Be Married’ link below.

The bad news? I have no idea (yet) how to link posts to the links below. I guess we’ll figure that out in due time! [Hello, Squarespace tutorials!]

Welcome.
