About the Blog

The Gracious Lady is a site in pursuit of promoting a life lived graciously. It's a very special online resource that emphasizes the importance of all quotidian acts which improves the way you live; whether it's in pursuit of family, working on your craft, gathering with friends or to the way you simply spend your days. 

Every element of the site—the features, written work, photography, and the general aesthetics—are consistent with the way we feel graciousness should be lived: simply, with poise, and a self who is carried with an essence that is decorous. 

The site and entire mission values chivalrous acts and gracious behavior. The act of being gracious is about making a conscious choice; to embrace a character trait that is to be remembered, respected, and appreciated.  

We plan to live out the rest of our lives standing in the light of vulnerability and authenticity—-and we will embrace anyone who courageously meets us there. We welcome you to join the movement and be a part of the Gracious Family.

Thank you for stopping by. Enjoy! 
The stories written here are all subjective. They are up for interpretation based on what the reader is currently going through in their season of life. These words provide insight to encourage a life lived graciously, but it never tells one how to live exactly. As Socrates once said "I cannot teach anybody anything, I can only make them think."  This is how the gracious lady plans to live out the rest of her life.
