I have been gone a while. It's not that I haven't had anything to say. I have written so many things over the past five years. I never stopped writing. I stopped sharing. My writings went from uplifting and inspiring, to worrisome and desperate. My journaling was filled with cries for help. I haven't been… Continue reading 4 seasons

It’s a good day to let go.
I think it’s time I got over myself. Ever since I decided to share my traumas with the world, I have been on this amazing, healing journey that has pushed me to grow in so many ways. I feel more in touch with myself than I ever have. I am more aware of who I… Continue reading It’s a good day to let go.
Whatever it takes.
A few weeks ago, I was working the closing shift at my second job. It was “Halloween dress up” night and I was wearing a pirate costume, although most people referred to me as a bar wench. That’s appropriate I guess, as I was serving beer. I felt a tad uncomfortable in my costume because… Continue reading Whatever it takes.
False portrayals.
“You don’t choose bad people. You choose people. How they decide to treat you is their responsibility, not yours.” Wise words from my therapist last week. I’ve been dwelling on these words and hoping to find some truth in there. Hoping to believe it. When I moved away to a different state at 19, I was… Continue reading False portrayals.
Breaking the cycle
The cycle has to stop. You are worthy of all the love your heart can hold. The moment that someone makes you feel otherwise, is the moment you need to say goodbye. It will be very hard, and you’ll doubt yourself many times. You’ll even feel some remorse and regret. You’ll spend a lot of… Continue reading Breaking the cycle
No love for the haters.
I haven’t written much lately. I guess I haven’t felt inspired. But whenever this happens, I know that if I just give it some time, the universe will speak to me and the words will start flowing again. I write a lot about my journey in finding myself and about trauma and how that has… Continue reading No love for the haters.
The power of “I’m sorry”
Countless times in my life, I have forgiven someone without getting an apology. I chose to forgive so I could move on with my life and not be burdened with resentment. More often than not, I can walk away from the person who wronged me and know that I’m better off without them in my… Continue reading The power of “I’m sorry”
I’ve got this.
Everyone has a breaking point. That moment when you know, enough is enough. You’re afraid and you know that making a change is going to hurt like hell, but you also know, without a doubt, that a change has to be made. There’s no turning back. So often we tell ourselves that things will get… Continue reading I’ve got this.
Pay attention to your dreams…and Jim Carrey
Jim Carrey I have crazy dreams and I love to analyze them. Dreams open up a whole new world that we’re just not in touch with when we’re awake and I think they mean so much more than we know or are willing to accept. Last night, I had a dream that I can’t stop… Continue reading Pay attention to your dreams…and Jim Carrey
You’re weird!
Stay weird. Whatever you do, do not comply to fit into someone else’s misconception of who you should be. Do not shrink yourself or try to be someone you are not. The ones who belong in your life will already know how magnificent and unique you are. They will love all of your weird little… Continue reading You’re weird!
