I'm Free: There's Nothing Left to Lose

Flying Parakeet

And if I am being an imposter, or only a shadow of me, then the value that anyone places in me is erroneous, invalid and an applaud that is not mine. And maybe that is why life could feel so lonely sometimes… when we’re only second-handers.  Read more >

* Giveaway * Hand Wash Cold by Karen Maezen Miller

While I still feel inadequately ready to write about my retreat last weekend, it’s time.  It’s also time for my February giveaway and I couldn’t think of a more appropriate one than Hand Wash Cold: Care Instructions for an Ordinary Lifeby Karen Maezen Miller.  It’s the book that has recently shifted my perspective, which has helped me embrace the freedom I have in my life.* Giveaway details at bottom of post if you want to skip reading post.  Read more >

My Life Can't Begin Again Some Other Day

Angela DiGiovanni for BlogHer.com's Own Your Beauty

This morning I shed some major tears over my battle with infertility. I cried because tomorrow I will be a 35-year-old, childless woman. I cried because I also realized, for the first time, that I’m scared to have a baby. I have so many fears surrounding having a child, that I’ve kept hidden from myself. But it’s all surfacing now. And I’m wondering how much of my own fears have blocked my body from doing what is most natural.  Read more >

The Duel Between Sleep and the Creative Flow

It’s futile. The Gushing Creative Flow always wins.Why is it that I’m practically falling asleep at my desk during the day, hit ‘create new blog post’ and stare blankly at the screen, or pull out a new art canvas and draw a blank, but at 4am I wake up with all kinds of creative thoughts that I just can’t turn off?I’m like an innocent bystander while I witness the dual between sleep, begging for mercy, and Creation, begging for her outlet.Sleep says,  Read more >

About Me: 

Angela DiGiovanni shares her journey through infertility and the deep emotions she has experienced in her life; from growing up as a melancholy kid, to the annulment of her four-year marriage after not being able to consummate it, to becoming a Mormon convert, remarriage, struggles with infertility and miscarriage, and losing everything she owned of temporal value in the real estate crash starting in 2007, eventually moving with her husband into her parents home to rebuild.

All along, her saving grace has been her relationship with Jesus Christ, whose hope offers an eternal perspective. She wouldn’t trade any of the insights and lessons she’s gained from a life of hardship; knowing full well it is our character that matters most in this life and the next, and all trials are for our good.

Today she finds joy in writing, photography, art, and family history – with Italian ancestry from Termini-Imerese, Italy.

She is currently working on her Memoir, The Virgin Wife Chronicles
