Welcome to Seasoned Thirty

At Seasoned Thirty, I believe that my life's happenings are peppered with moments worth sharing. From the heartwarming to soul crushing, my blog is simply to bring you true life stories that are relatable and raw. 

I may be a mere Thirty something years old, but life has Seasoned me beyond my years for a reason.

To raise money, a "Mr. Starry Night" contest is held, complete with speeches, questionnaires, & a talent show. This year, a young man took the stage with his sister to sing this song, and I fell in love with it. Take a minute to really listen to the lyrics & perhaps share it with someone who may need to hear it.
