A lot has happened this year that has my household reeling, except that I also don’t want to forget what got me here in the first place. Taking my time. I’m guilty of thinking I can remove chunks of time to get to a destination faster. But I spent the majority of my life doing…

When It’s Forced
This is a topic that’s hard to explain. Reason being is because it is my personal experience, and people seem to not make sense of it. You can call it luck, fortune, opportunity, blessed. Whatever you call it, three things happen. First, people act like it’s out of this world and that it would never…
Materials – Unneeded
What could you let go of, for the sake of harmony? Items I’ve purchased or even things given to me, I will and have either given away or discarded them if they’re not usable anymore. It helps clear up clutter and my mind. Attachment isn’t healthy, and nothing lasts forever. Change is good. Creating space…
Jealousy is an Ugly Color
I spent a very long time understanding my need for something. Ultimately, I realized it’s human nature. But never resorted to chopping others down to make myself feel better. Here we go again. Though I own a lot of jewelry, the personalized trinkets my significant other buys for me are unique. I can’t put a…
Nothing But Time
When a butterfly emerges from its chrysalis, it takes hours to pump blood into its wings so it can fly. However, this is necessary, and not forced. It flows. Allow things to flow to you. No matter the outcome. Because if at any point in time, you’re shoving a situation to fit, it could fall…
No Glory But My Own
She idled off of every word before she attempted this. I’ve spent the last month and a half rushing behind her because no one else would. We were in a good spot, then she looked at me, her eyes glazed with envy and deceit. Her lips curled up as she fashioned her neck back as…
My Solutions In Regards to Sustainability
Are there things you try to practice daily to live a more sustainable lifestyle? Accumulation is normal. Giving things away is normal as well. Throwing things out is wasteful. Especially if it can be used again. I focus on buying items that will last longer than a season. Despite popular belief in this day and…
Spirituality is Self
Before I begin – you don’t have a spirit…you are a spirit. Driving a meat suit. On a random rock, hurdling through space time. With that being said, my spirit and my practices are very important. To narrow it down, everyone has their own individual journey. The road you take is on you – I’m…
Affirming Boundaries
It seems as though it would be simple, but it sometimes isn’t. My favorite thing about this topic that I’ve learned is the idea has been misconstrued! When we think self care, we always assume it’s shopping and bubble baths. When in fact, it is setting healthy boundaries, saying no and doing for ourselves. And…
Wage War – Soliloquy
Wage War Silently filling in all the pieces to a puzzleSay one wrong word, and you’ll be accessorizing a muzzleIt’s a struggleIf you want to be yourselfPart of you is independentThe rest is screaming for help So you sacrificePen and paper every nightUntil you draw the lineWhite chalk everywhereMaking those outlinesDid I get it right?I’m…
