Blood Doesn’t Matter

What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received? When I was in my younger twenties, I fell under a cloak of insanity and hatred from a family member. Not only was my own mother lashing out at me, she had failed to instruct me properly with care of my new born, and what my…

To Give

Write about a random act of kindness you’ve done for someone. In 2017, I was on ankle monitor for having defended myself against my ex – my offense was greater. My mother supplied me with funds, simply to make sure I wouldn’t be homeless. She didn’t know I had slept in my car at the…

Something I’m Working On

What bothers you and why? There is one thing that bothers me, and it evolves into other things, so to speak. I am a straightforward person, so when I communicate and deal with others, there’s nothing motivating my kindness. I am unwavering, honest and flat out kind. My biggest pet peeve is when an individual…

Weekly Reading July 4th – July 10th: Balance is Magic

Today’s moon is at 2% illumination, sitting in Gemini. By Friday, we’ll have a new moon in Cancer, so let’s go over that shift of energy. Today can be practical and full of creativity. I challenge you to pick one thing – and finish it. Gemini is a mutable sign, so sometimes the energy is…

Precious, Precious Time

How do you waste the most time every day? Even though I believe time is an illusion, I do believe you can be wasteful with it. Typically, this occurs for me…when I’m in my head too much. In earlier years, it was a bigger issue. Nowadays, I catch myself. Usually, I’ll say – “nothing is…

Fear – Passed Down

What fears have you overcome and how? This is an interesting question, as it would have gone hand in hand with the religious prompt from last week. When I practiced Christianity, I had a fear of everything. Things that weren’t even real. (Hell, for example). The more I began to think for myself, the less…

Hiatus

How do you know when it’s time to unplug? What do you do to make it happen? As someone who is self made, and oftentimes relies on their phone, I do still get rest. But apart from using focus on my iPhone, I also take breaks to clear my head. I recently started helping a…

Honesty and Integrity Even When it Hurts

What quality do you value most in a friend? Growing up, I had a lot of friends. None of them made it through my twenties. There were a lot of factors that weeded them out. Money was typically the reason. I was kind in my twenties, and would offer taking people shopping. The more I…

No Such Thing

What does “having it all” mean to you? Is it attainable? I’m still considered young, and I will admit that I know nothing, even still. I have overcome a multitude of obstacles in my life, but one thing I’ve harnessed is the understanding of growth. Having it all is a paraphrase created by societal monsters…

Involuntarily

For the life of me, I will never understand why people feel the absolute need to watch the news. Those same people turn around and complain about the state of the world. If you’re viewing everything within a small box, and believe everything you’re told…can you truly complain? Are you angry? Or is it a…
