I can’t get away without sharing our experience in France with you. I’m going to start from the beginning, as this whirlwind of events deserves. Story time! For starters, just getting to France in itself was chaotic. I won’t stress you with the details, but know that at one point (less than 24 hours beforeContinue reading “Frazzled in France”

The Suffering of Worry
**this was written in 2018** “Worrying means you suffer twice.” Read it again. “Worrying means you suffer twice.” If something is going to happen – it’s going to happen. So let it happen when it happens. There is absolutely no reason to worry your entire day away about your roommate burning down the house whileContinue reading “The Suffering of Worry”
Rant: Pretty Privilege
**This rant was written at the end of 2019** This year I gained a lot of awareness about how others view me. The way people view me doesn’t affect the way I live my life, they don’t have that much power over me. But it does give me different perspectives on what others might thinkContinue reading “Rant: Pretty Privilege”
Just Ride
Do you remember riding in the car as a kid and not knowing where you were going? There was an unappreciated bliss of how irrelevant I was when running errands with my mom. A bliss I haven’t felt in years – hopping in the car, no care in the world for how long we wereContinue reading “Just Ride”
Thank you, 2021.
This year was truly inspiring. Through a whirlwind of emotions, it’s given me insight on a lot. It’s reminded me of the rewards of consistency. It’s taught me how to generously give my time. It’s encouraged me to be blunt. In my boundaries, my desires, and my non-negotiables. It’s made me to be courageous. Bold.Continue reading “Thank you, 2021.”
Validation Victims
Constant validation is a hard thing to wrap around my mind. Why does something always have to be said in order for it to be felt? Validations happen in moments, there’s not always something to tell. But the constant need to be told exactly how one feels and what they think is crippling. It’s likeContinue reading “Validation Victims”
Timing is Underrated
I was thinking about this while playing pin ball in Portland the other night. (I forgot how much I love this game, by the way). Some would say it’s a game of luck and the ball will take you wherever it wants to go on its time. Which I can’t disagree with. The ball doesContinue reading “Timing is Underrated”
Dirty Politics
I’m not one to talk about politics. EVER. It does nothing but infuriate me. It gets me worked up because I don’t understand how having common sense to do what’s best for ALL people is just completely disregarded. How can you govern people and not do what’s best for them?! People say, “well, you can’tContinue reading “Dirty Politics”
Cancel Trolls Gone Wild
**This was written sometime in 2020** You know how I’ve always wanted my own show? How I’ve always loved writing in my blog and sharing more opinions and random thoughts that I have going throughout my head? I now find myself hesitant to both of these things because the world is extremely sensitive, literal, andContinue reading “Cancel Trolls Gone Wild”
Such a Big Ego
You know how sometimes you judge someone else’s situation simply because you’ve been through your own things in life that their complaint just doesn’t quite level with? And you kind of question how someone can be so ungrateful for the situation they’re in because it could be A LOT worse? Well what if that hurtContinue reading “Such a Big Ego”
