Everyone wants life to be black and white.
Good people.
Bad people.
Smart women.
Desperate women.
Worthy love.
Unworthy love.
But life has never lived inside those lines.
The world sees a prison wife and writes a story before she ever opens her mouth.
They assume she’s insecure.
Naive.
Settling.
Broken.
What they don’t see are the women working twelve-hour shifts, raising children, paying bills, earning degrees, building businesses, holding families together, and carrying more weight than most people could imagine.
They don’t see the mothers.
The daughters.
The sisters.
The wives.
The women who chose loyalty when walking away would’ve been easier.
And the truth is, some of us have been hurt more by people with complete freedom than by the men sitting behind bars.
A prison sentence tells you where someone sleeps.
It does not tell you how they love.
It does not tell you how they treat people.
It does not tell you their heart.
Just like my marriage doesn’t tell you my intelligence.
My standards.
My strength.
Or my worth.
The older I get, the more I realize life isn’t black and white.
It’s a thousand shades of gray that only make sense when you’ve lived them.
And maybe that’s why I love this photo so much.
Because when all the color disappears, you’re forced to look deeper than the surface.
Maybe people should do the same with each other.

Sometimes I think about our story and it genuinely feels like something out of a movie. 😭
My husband and I started talking at the beginning of December 2024, and somehow in such a short amount of time, this person who was once a complete stranger started feeling like somebody my heart had known forever.
February 5, 2025, was the very first day I ever met my husband face to face.
I flew into New Orleans the day before, but nothing could’ve prepared me for that long drive to Angola the next morning. My stomach was in knots, my heart was beating out of my chest, and I swear every mile felt like forever because all I could think about was finally seeing him.
And what makes that day even more special to me is that it was also the day he graduated his drug program.
Two lives changing at the exact same time.
The crazy part is that the second I wrapped my arms around him, every nerve disappeared. It didn’t feel like meeting somebody new. It felt like finding somebody I had been missing my whole life.
Then on March 18, 2025, I married him.
So yes… I married my husband four months after we started talking and a little over a month after meeting him in person for the very first time ever. 😭
And I know people probably hear our story and think there’s no way this could make sense.
But love has never cared about timelines, distance, or circumstances.
Sometimes souls just recognize each other. 🤍

There’s something about open skies, fresh air, and New Mexico sunsets that just feels real. No fake energy. No forced conversations. Just peace. Freedom. Space to breathe.
Maybe that’s why I stay to myself so much now. Genuine people are hard to come by these days and I’m not the type to force connections just to say I have them. I’d rather have a small circle with real intentions than be surrounded by people who move weird.
The older I get, the more I realize peace is priceless and protecting your energy is necessary. 🤍
