Discovering You
If I was asked about twenty years ago where I saw myself… I don’t think I would have ever expected myself to be here. Unfortunately, I was in the habit of never having any long-term plans. I just… drifted for a solid ten years it seems… So, when things began to fall out the bottom Continue reading

Routines
This year is nearly over… So much has happened. What’s so amusing about that is I don’t remember most of it. Certain parts, yeah… but not a lot. In the past, I would be upset over that. Now though… I don’t really care. There were many things I hoped for… for years. I was used Continue reading

Pearls
@11:49PM. Sorry about this. Post: For many years, I never saw much value in myself. I think I was… and still am to an extent – emotionally stunted. I’m the youngest of three, but unlike my older siblings… neither of my parents had any hand in raising me. My father was never there and my Continue reading

Heel Nips

I’m staring at my curtains and asking myself a lot of questions. While it was great that I finally pulled off the horrid tannish/brown things that had been there for decades… I’m not joking about that. I also revealed a very nice set of sheer curtains. Now, it looks like my background glows in the Continue reading

That Like It Say To Have You Do Why
Today, forwards is backwards and backwards is forwards. My knee feels 80% better today. I didn’t struggle much. Even though I had a few problems getting down the stairs before going out, by the time I got back… felt pretty good. My therapist said it well. At times, when you’re hurting, you have to push Continue reading

Broken Within
How many of us hide under a pretty shell? I suffered from an existential crisis at one point. For some people, they might have a brief period of time not understanding themselves, right? Except my questions lingered for over a decade. From Fifteen to Twenty-Five – I questioned myself. Why am I here? What am Continue reading

There comes a time in your life where you have to choose. Do you want to stay in the same rut or stretch out? For me, I have chosen to go straight down the middle. There are many things in life that I’ve had just growing stagnant, but at the same time, there have been Continue reading

I suppose there always has to be a Beginning
Did you know these blogs are narrated? Click here to listen to the podcasts! Technically, I’m not new to blogging… In the past though, I always hid who I was. I was afraid of how others would see me. As time has gone on though, I’ve gradually begun to learn to love myself for who Continue reading
