When?
I used to be a “I’ll be glad when,” kind of girl, until I realized when may never come. Whether it was traveling, going out, or simply living life, I could only do things “when” I felt the time was right. While I considered it to be smart thinking, in all honesty, I wasn’t thinking […]

Almost There
Things may appear pretty bleak or not promising for you, but it doesn’t mean it’s going to be that way forever. While you think you are extremely far from living out your dreams, chances are, you’re only an arm’s length away. Although it’s taking what seems like forever, as each day passes, you’re moving another […]

Cheers from within
“I love you” and “I’m so proud of you,” are probably two of the most needed phrases anyone would want to hear. No matter how big or small the accomplishment is, just the mere thought of knowing you have the love and support of others, not only feels good, but is extremely rewarding. “Somebody cares?” […]

Get it back
Have you lost your drive? Get it back! Been robbed of your joy? Get it back! Had your smile taken away? Get it back! Are you missing your confidence? Get it back! Someone stole your peace of mind? GO GET IT BACK! A lot of times people will let things go, because it didn’t have […]

Walking in the wrong direction
“Everyone has their life mapped out,” is a pretty accurate statement to make. Whether in your teenage years or adult, you’ve always known what you wanted for yourself. Whether it was good for you or not, you still continued on, because it was what you wanted. With each passing moment, you anxiously awaited until you […]

Worst Sentence Ever
I wish I could give myself the same grace, that God gives me. Sometimes, I do things that I think are so shameful and impossible to get over, and no matter what I do to try and get over it, I can’t, because I just can’t forgive myself. There are others who’ve done so much […]

On Schedule
“I was supposed to be there by now,” but I’m so far behind. “I should be further along than where I am,” but I’m so far behind. “I was supposed to have graduated last year,” but I’m so far behind. “I was supposed to buy a house two years ago,” but I’m so far behind. […]

Knot today
I stress the importance of taking care of one’s mental health, especially during times as these. If you weren’t depressed before, I’m sure you may have experienced it since the pandemic. I’ve suffered from depression for years, and although the hardships I’ve faced in recent months were hard on me, I was able to manage. […]

More of this and more of that
You say, “I want more money,” but are you prepared for more problems? You say, “I want to do much more at work,” but are you prepared for more responsibilities? You say “I want to be more successful,” but are you prepared to do more than what it takes to get there? You say, “I […]

In the meantime
I don’t know which is worse, waiting for it to happen, or waiting on someone to make it happen. The process of waiting can be extremely daunting, but it does have it’s benefits. The biggest, would be preparation. Waiting is not to be taken lightly, nor considered as leisure time. More than anything, that time […]
