September 1, 2022

          For today’s topic I want to speak on the red flags in friendships.

Afraid to Dream, Afraid to Believe. (Am I Jinxing my Goals by being Too Enthusiastic, and thinking too far ahead?)

August 25, 2022

          I don’t know what it is, but lately I’ve been afraid to think big. It feels like when I get my hopes up, I get let down so it’s easier to just not think so far ahead.

Mentally and Emotionally Surviving without Apologies.  (Chasing Peace pt 3)

August 22, 2022

          In the past few years, I’ve been looking at the world through a different lens. As I probably mentioned in previous posts before, the world has become a little grayer.

When they went to Ravenswood for the first time, it was … More Mentally and Emotionally Surviving without Apologies.  (Chasing Peace pt 3)

Traveling Solo … (I Wish I Wasn’t Afraid to Travel Solo when I was in my early 20’s).

August 11, 2022

          Since I was younger, I’ve always yearned to travel. I used to buy travel books and check them out from the library as a child.

July 14, 2022

          Today I was thinking a lot about romance movies and shows based on love and relationships. I’ve noticed that a lot of people would say that they hate romance stories because they’re so unrealistic.

July 7, 2022

          Sometimes I wonder how open one should be when it comes to their life. Does being too open and honest make it easy to become a target? Or does it make you more relatable?
