My name is Christy, welcome! Fireflies are like the coolest bug ever, don’t ya think? They bring sparkles in the dark of night and deliver pure beauty, true peace, and timeless joy.
Like fireflies, we too can brighten up the darkness in ourselves, within our family, co-workers, and neighbors. It’s true. In Matthew 5:14-16, it says we are the light of the world; we’re not to hide the light, but to shine it. We are warriors who fight for light. We fight for love, we wrestle for joy, and we battle for peace. Remember, light always wins over darkness. And you know what else wins? Simplicity. Keeping it simple in the midst of adversity will lead you to a victory. Put the two together = Simplify Firefly.
Two things I focus on here:
#1 – To encourage and inspire you to be your brightest by equipping you with the right ammunition. Do more than exist!
#2 – To save you time and frustration in everyday obstacles by simplifying your challenges.
How? There are two ways I do this, with my blog and my functional products. We’re after peace and joy, so let’s go light up the sky. Simple has twinkle!
My latest product offerings:
“We just used our Laplanders on a cross country trip. I was driving my in-laws to see a relative. Because of their age and COVID, we were very cautious about making stops along the way. So we packed food to take with us instead of risking stops at restaurants. The Laplander was wonderful not just for eating in the car but also for making sandwiches. It provides is a convenient flat surface for doing so. My in-laws also used their Laplanders for a pillow and for back support. The other thing I appreciate is that they fit in the pocket on the backside of the seats (more convenient than other lap trays or other pillows). ”
