Stretching my Creative Muscles
Lately, I’ve had the urge to do more with my creative brain. Currently, I am a writer; I write poetry, prose, short stories, novels.

Self-Love.
I typically don’t post selfies of myself, but I’m feeling really good about myself. And despite the low points I’ve had recently, tonight I’m going to a concert that I’ve been anticipating since November, so tonight, I’m on a high. So here I am, being silly and loving myself.
