Sometimes, even breathing is hard. The simple task of taking an inhale can be the toughest thing you think you can do. The world feels like it’s sitting on our chests these days; nothing may be going right. Everything feels hopeless. Nothing is going right and despite your best efforts to feel good, you just…

Blogmas 2020: Why I Love Christmas
Hello Blogmas fans! Today’s post will talk about the obvious; why Christmas is my favorite holiday! Out of all the holidays (with the exception of my birthday because I do consider that a holiday), I’ve always loved the spirit of Christmas. After Thanksgiving comes and goes, I go into full Christmas spirit and holiday mode….
Happy Birthday.
Whitney, I bet the world would be stunned if you told them you didn’t think you’d make it to this day. But you did. This year you found out, you were flawed like hell. You’re not that great of a person, and you can’t make things perfect. You can’t control anything except your actions and…

I sat down at my computer yesterday, trying to formulate some words about how I feel. There’s so much criticism in a person’s silence about the current issues were facing; the murder of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor and countless others that have suffered the horrific an unjustified and untimely death. But, I want…
