         Five years ago, I uploaded a short post about going into a trial-and-error period. It was a time when I wanted to try a lot of things and figure out what works and what doesn’t. I wanted to know what works best for me and finally get a better idea of my path, so … More Going into another Trial-and-Error season.
         Well, there goes another year. 2024 was interesting to say the least. What a challenging time! Now it’s time for a new chapter.

It’s a time for rapid growth and a time for change in the … More Going into the New Year Damaged but Not Destroyed!
         Last year was one hell of a journey! There were so many lessons and life changing moments. I’ve learned more about myself and embraced the need for change. I pushed back my fears and started counseling and learned that I cannot fight depression and anxiety alone. I started my new medication back in November … More New Steps, New Adventures and New Paths. (Chasing Happiness after Grief)
Earlier this year I binged watched the show Younger on Hulu. [Don’t worry, I won’t give away any spoilers for people who might want to watch it at some point. 95% of what I’m mentioning from the first episode.] I used to always see the commercials for it on TVLand, but never watched it … More Why the show YOUNGER made me feel Hopeful . . .
Which is worse? Failing or never trying? This question used to be so simple. The answer seemed so obvious. Never trying would be the worse choice of course. Now, I look at it slightly differently. I still feel that never trying is still the worst choice someone can make for the most part. However, … More To Fail or To Never Try? (That’s the question. What’s the answer?)
In a previous post I’ve mentioned one of my favorite quotes from The Office. It was the last season and Andy Bernard stated, “I wish there was a way to know you’re in the good old days before you’ve actually left them.” That quote stuck with me since the very first time I heard … More When You Feel that the Good Old Days are Behind You . . .

Are you an optimist or a pessimist? Do you look at the glass half full or half empty? All of my life I’ve heard that I am both.

A few days ago, I was watching a show where they all wrote letters apologizing to themselves for their past mistakes.

So, I want to take this time today and write a letter apologizing to my … More A Letter of Apology to My Younger Self. (Therapeutic Exercise) (Blogmas #4)
       Mean Girls is a staple movie for my generation. It was the kind of chick flick that most people watched and loved.

(I Just Have A Lot of Feelings)
Rejection is a hard pill to swallow. I’ve experienced rejection in so many ways, and to be honest it doesn’t get much easier with time. When you experience it so much it starts to affect you mentally. You start to feel like you’re inadequate and just not good enough. This year I’ve received rejections … More Let’s talk about Rejection! (When All the No’s Start to Affect You Mentally.)
