So, I frequently follow and love influencers. I can't help it, they make their lives look cool and I believe it. I really want to do stuff like that, but I always stop myself because I know my set up won't be as cool as theirs or the lighting will be off or I will … Continue reading Influencers

Health & Fitness Goals
I've been finding it helpful and motivating to talk about my goals on my blog. Something about publicizing my plans and goals makes me more determined to at least attempt them and keep up with them. I'm not even certain how many people read this, but it feels like people do and those people are … Continue reading Health & Fitness Goals
Take Me To The Lakes
When I was younger, I devoured books. I read so fast, I could finish two or three hundred paged books on plane flights. Reading inspired me to write. I started writing stories when I was eight or nine years old. This love of reading and writing has followed me throughout my life. I claim the … Continue reading Take Me To The Lakes
Difference
I am really very determined to make a difference in this world. When I look around at the world I see the hurt. There are so many people suffering. I want to help. I don't know how. Right now my activism is very small. I am still working on making my small corner of the … Continue reading Difference
Where Did My Deconstruction Start?

I’m sure most of you will have seen the news that … Continue reading Where Did My Deconstruction Start?

Like ever since college, I've dreamt of the day where I have my own place and a job, and I would imagine what a "day in the life" would look like. In this ideal world, I'm getting up … Continue reading Routines
Conflict
It's really hard sometimes to step out of your own perspective. People always say, "put yourself in their shoes." But that's a lot easier said than done. I think this world would be a vastly different place if more people thought about the perspectives of others' outside of their own culture/experience/upbringing. Of course, you never … Continue reading Conflict
Part Two
So after writing last week's blog I was instantly struck by something. The past week I was feeling a lot less fear than usual. First of all, I had the courage to post that last blog, I can't even tell you how many saved drafts I had of times that I tried to do that … Continue reading Part Two
Victories in Self-Awareness
I was scrolling through social media, you know, how you do. And one of my friends just recently started a new job in a new city and she's been sharing about her experience. And I looked at her post and I started feeling this little pang of jealousy. I thought to myself, wow she's so … Continue reading Victories in Self-Awareness
