Welcome, welcome, welcome!

 

Let me show you around the place.

 

For starters, I’m Leigh - Yankee Social Worker turned Southern Dream-Chaser, writing my way through the in-between, and reveling in the now.

 

I like to imagine that when you're here, we've already dispensed with the small talk and are well on our way to the marrow of relationship. This is a gathering place for seasoned friends.

 

To that end, let’s get to the core of my story. Here at HopefulLeigh I write about:

 

Faith

Etching Truth, or Why I Got Another Tattoo

Living Up To My Name- #OneWord365

New Shoes and Sunday Blues

So I Choose To Hope

This Introvert in the Church

 

Grief

Mourning, Social Media, and Choosing Joy

My Someday Something Blue (Four Years)

On Saying Goodbye

Take the Picture, Send the Email

 

 

Growth

The Eleventh Month of Hoping

In Which I Am Stunned

Learning What I'm Worth

Why I Call Myself a Hot Bridesmaid

 

 

Singleness

Another First Date

Do Unto Singles: Suggestions for the Church

I'm the One that Got Away

To The Girl Who Has Never Dated

The Morning After

 

. . . . and everything in between.
