In my last post I talked about the red flags when dealing with two-faced friends (or should I say Frenemies). Growing up I wish I caught on to all the signs that were in front of me, but I guess that’s what life experience is about (learning and gaining wisdom). For the most part, … More 3 Potential Red Flags that you Might Stumble Upon Before the First Date.
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. I hate saying what I truly want (whether in my head or out loud) in fear that … More Afraid to Dream, Afraid to Believe. (Am I Jinxing my Goals by being Too Enthusiastic, and thinking too far ahead?)
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. It’s like I’m living in Ravenswood. Remember the original Pretty Little Liars show? When they went to Ravenswood for the first time, it was … More Mentally and Emotionally Surviving without Apologies. (Chasing Peace pt 3)
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. I would also grab all the free brochures in those travel agency businesses. It was my way to have pretend time and just think about where I would want … More Traveling Solo … (I Wish I Wasn’t Afraid to Travel Solo when I was in my early 20’s).
The older you get the more you realize that you don’t know as much as you thought you did. You start to realize that life is unpredictable, and things aren’t as simple as you might have thought. You can lay out your path but that doesn’t mean it’s going to go in the direction … More Learn from Everyone Around You! (Be Open and Stop Blocking Your Growth!)
         My ongoing journey to Chasing “Financial” Freedom has been a roller coaster with many loops, turns and steep hills. I’ve failed tremendously. I gave up over and over again. I’ve came across many roadblocks. Unexpected life situations continuously popped up and delayed my path, but I kept going. Somehow, I would find the strength … More Self-Discipline for Success and Trying to Move Forward in this New Normal (Chasing Freedom Pt 2)
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? I know for me personally; I like to be more open and honest about things. Growing up I was more … More Being Too Open, honest and Transparent for Social Media….? (Wondering if I should pull back)
Lately I’ve been taking things slow, especially during the last few weeks. I removed a lot of pressure that I tend to feel in my everyday life and just decided to give myself a little more grace. I knew last month was going to be a difficult and emotional month for me and it … More Shutting out Chaos (Chasing Peace Pt 2)
         Lately, I’ve been narrowing in on my bad traits. Not the apparent traits that can be easily pointed out, but the negative traits that I never knew that I had. I’ve always been an honest person, who would admit to my faults, but now I’m discovering things about myself that I wasn’t aware of … More Self-Awareness (Coming to Realizations during Solitude. Don’t be Afraid of your Truths.)
In the beginning of the year, I wrote a post called Chasing Happiness in 2022. This past March I wrote a post called Chasing Peace. Today I’m here to present Chasing Freedom. I’ve been wanting to write about this for the past few weeks. Last week I just had a lot on my mind, … More Chasing Freedom (Financial Freedom, Mental & Physical Freedom)
