So I’m about to put my heart on blast. Ready? Okay here it goes and mind you I’m a Scorpio so this goes against everything I believe. There are many people that come into your life. I know not everyone is meant to stay. This is one person I knew I was meant to meet and hoped would stay. We…
One of the pivotal moments of my life is when I first realized that the world did not revolve around me. As I toddler I had had a fantastical theory that life was a movie and I was the star.

Day one, I think I want to make a blog about procrastination . . . Day two, I should probably sit down and devote some time to write that blog about procrastination . . . Day three, what do I say in the blog about procrastination I’m going to write later? Day four, Oh yeah I was going make a blog…
When I was growing up I had many phases of what I wanted to do with my life. They varied from astronaut to paleontologist (thanks to Jurassic Park) to FBI agent.

Flowers For Algernon by Daniel Keyes is a fantastic story. I read this story a long time ago in high school and to this day I remember it vividly.

One of my favorite stories to tell is when I went to state for wrestling in high school. Now this isn’t centered on the bragging aspect. This was one of the moments in life that tested me and I fought hard to persevere. First things first, yes, I was a girl wrestler. My first two years I wrestled mainly boys…

I get sad. I cry. I get mad. I throw a fit. Then I feel ashamed. Ashamed that I let anything get to me. Ashamed that I became emotional. Ashamed at my own weakness. I give myself a pep talk. “Get it together. I saw this coming. I’m not weak. I’ve been through worse. This ain’t shit. Keep your head up.”…
Back when I was 25 I had just gotten out of a long emotionally abusive engagement and then out of a short rebound relationship that got violent. I was on the mends as they like to say. So I was feeling down and out. My frame of mind was that I would never ever get married and just be pushed…
