Hi, I’m Anika.

About this Blog

Thanks for checking out my work! I started this blog in a state of boredom, hoping to document exactly what the name of the blog says—Silly Thoughts and Real Prayers.

I generally talk about the things going on in my life as a young adult and how I make sense of it all through a faith-based lens. Some articles have more Christian vibes than the others—but I hope you find all of them to be accessible and encouraging.

Please don’t hesitate to send me a message about one of the articles—I’d love to hear your reactions and discuss anything you have a question about!

Subscribing

If you’ve never used Substack before, it’s basically just a website that houses a bunch of different blogs. All of my content is free for now, but I’d be very grateful if you subscribed. (I might eventually share some things just to subscribers!)

Subscribing means that you’ll get my weekly article delivered straight to your email inbox as a newsletter. Some people find this easier to navigate than the website or app. It also demonstrates your support for my work so that I can track how this project is growing :)

Substack App

You can also download the Substack app if you’re interested in viewing the blog through there.
