We struggle. We make mistakes. We argue. But there is always support. We lift each other up. We apologize. We want the best for each other. We strive to make each other better; to make each other feel appreciated and respected. Our personal goals are aligned with what we want for our relationships. We are … Continue reading Quality Over Quantity

What The Future Holds
I haven't been writing a whole lot lately. I have replaced writing with reading, praying, and hoping things begin to fall into place for my precisely laid out plan for my future. I needed to take some time to fix myself. A good friend told me, "Your mind is like an ankle sprain. Sometimes you … Continue reading What The Future Holds
An Open Letter to The guy I thought was Worth It
From the moment I met you I knew it would be an impossible journey. A journey I was determined to finish even if all the time wasn't worth it. I regret that decision now, two years later and countless hours of me trying and you dragging me along in the dirt like an old toy … Continue reading An Open Letter to The guy I thought was Worth It

We get treated differently than men. We're too nice, too bitchy, too emotional, and we have a low pain … Continue reading Ladies
Justification
I don't have to justify myself to anyone even when society is screaming at me to do so right in my face. I'm exhausted in a way that my mind and body are drained. I'm beyond the point of being tired and no amount of sleep will help. My thoughts are completely discombobulated and it's … Continue reading Justification
Choose Wisely
It's difficult to remember that we have the ability to make our own decisions about who and what we want in our lives. There are circumstances that are uncontrollable, but for the most part we can control our happiness, our company, and ourselves. As I continue to assess my admittingly unstable yet uneventful life, I … Continue reading Choose Wisely
