In June I wrote another post that I titled "Escape" in which I talked about not being able to escape the reality I found myself in. I talked about no matter how much I wanted to leave I couldn't. However, that simply wasn't true. What I needed was to change my mindset. What I needed... Continue Reading →
There’s No Right Way
We all face difficult moments in our lives. Some last for simply that - a moment. Others last for far longer than we would care for them to. However, each person handles situations differently. Each person processes, reacts, reflects differently. When someone is going through something, it is so easy to judge and say "this... Continue Reading →
The Lotus Flower
The meaning of the lotus flower holds such power because it can offer hope and strength to people struggling in their daily lives. It is a symbol that shows that no matter where you start off in life and no matter what you're going through, you have the ability to rise above, overcome all negativity... Continue Reading →

No matter what point you find yourself in life, it is important to surround yourself with people who are there for you no matter what. They may not always realize that they are supporting you, but friends and family are the most important people to have in your life. As I have gone through everything... Continue Reading →
Un-niversary

Lessons I’ve Learned from Running
Throughout this past year, possibly for even longer than that, I've come to realize that our every day lives are just a race that we are running. I can't find a better analogy for life than running. I think this is because no matter how many people are around you, positive or negative, running (and... Continue Reading →
It’s Okay To Not Be Okay
I still struggle. There are times I still feel lost. There are times I still feel like I'm drowning. There are still times my brain goes numb and I forget how to think. There are times still times I wake up and don't remember where I am. There are still times the emptiness of the... Continue Reading →
