I can’t wait until this month comes to an end. I’ve been stressing so much during this move. I hate packing. It’s insane how much one can accumulate over the years. I need to start embracing minimalism in the near future. I hold onto way too many things. It’s ridiculous. I’ve never been one … More Divorce Diaries (Part 15: Packing Up the Memories)
Sometimes I go back and read my old journals or old posts, and I am really surprised at how much I have forgotten overtime. But when I read them, it’s like it all comes rushing back.

I wasn’t feeling too inspired this week to come up with a topic to discuss, but I did come across an interesting journal prompt while web browsing. It said to list 10 frivolous things that bring you joy. I guess classifying what’s frivolous and what’s not is subjective. So I’m just going to share 10 … More 10 Small (Frivolous) Things that Brings Me Joy!
         Today I came across a journal prompt that really grasped my attention. It made me think about the past and future. The question was: What’s three things you’d do if you weren’t so afraid?

For the past few months, I’ve been wanting to start writing and journaling every day. I used to always write when I was feeling overwhelmed or depressed, but I never would write every day.

       Lately I’ve been going back to feeling extremely tired again. I’ve been pretty much dropping the ball the past few weeks. A part of me feels like it’s the Christmas season and I should give myself a break.

         Why do we judge our past selves with today’s wisdom? I heard Pastor Furtick talk about this recently and I’ve been thinking about it ever since. With age comes wisdom and growth, so why are we so hard on ourselves for our past choices/mistakes? Of course, we would do things a little different now, … More Judging Yesterday’s Self with Today’s Wisdom.
December is coming up and I’m a little excited. It’s something about Christmas time that eases my mind, especially since I left the retail scene. During the years at my old job, I was not thrilled about this time of year. Even though Christmas is supposed to be a joyous holiday, it brought out the … More Christmastime
Since I started this blog back in August of 2018 I never really posted consistently. I heard of some people blogging everyday for a year and it just made me realize how hard others are working. I couldn’t wrap my head around blogging everyday because I don’t know if I could think of a … More I Blogged Everyday for 30 Days and this Happened…
Today I don’t have much to say. I guess you can say I’ve been a little down this week. Have you ever felt like everyone has the answers but you? It’s almost like there is a secret code that you have to crack, and everyone eventually finds the code except for you. That’s how I … More Frustrated with the Pace of the Journey
