My Story
My story began on the 27th of March, 1991. I was born the seventh out of eight children. To better understand others stories, I have had to observe my own. As my days further into months, and my months further into years I grow a better understanding of who I am, and why I am that way. Experiences, are my stories. The people I have come in contact with; my family especially, has played a large role in my story.
I am Hannah Woods Massey
and that is all I know how to be.
So,here I am, put somewhat simply:
My heart tells my story, through the people I love as well as the things I love to do.
I am…
a wife. a daughter.sister.aunt.granddaughter.friend.cousin.niece.
I love…

Random trinkets about me
I have a wandering heart, one that is observant, and excited by the little things.
My dream destination is Iceland. I want to write and illustrate a children’s book.
I cannot wink. I cannot roll my “r’s.” when I laugh really hard I may or may not weeze. I love miniature things. When I think things are cute I get so excited that I laugh really hard and usually tear.
Hannah’s hopes…
LOVE.
SEEDS.
SONGS.
VIBRANCY.
LIFE.
GROWTH.
//May I sprinkle LOVE amongst the paths in which my feet travel upon,
with the SEEDS I have undeservedly been given//
//May I never stop singing the SONG of my soul.//
//May LIFE, VIBRANCY, and GROWTH never recede from within, or from bringing it to those around me.//
We were CREATED with LOVE,
to be LOVED,
and to LOVE others.
So…
therefore,
the love within me,
needs to be let out…
and that is where my passions come in…
art+music+photography
creating
loving people.
My favorite passage
Romans 12:9-21 (ESV)
“ Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good. Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor. Do not be slothful in zeal, be fervent in spirit, serve the Lord. Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. Contribute to the needs of the saints and seek to show hospitality. Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them. Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep. Live in harmony with one another. Do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly. Never be wise in your own sight. Repay no one evil for evil, but give thought to do what is honorable in the sight of all. If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all. Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” To the contrary,
“if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.” Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. “
