Let’s face it. Life can sometimes suck and not everything goes according to plan. That’s why I think planning can be slightly overrated. Anyway. When we are dealing with tough circumstances or feel like we have failed at something and nothing is going right, there is no one to depend on but yourself to see…
Do you ever notice that just when you are at your lowest point and you feel lost and hopeless a blog, poster quote, or video shows up and it practically has your name on it? Are ya with me here? This week I feel like I’ve been kicked in the head and the stomach. I…
You know, making friends was a lot easier when you were in elementary school. We all just played together and had fun and the worst crime was not sharing your chocolate bar. As an adult, making friends isn’t so easy anymore. It’s almost a game of Russian Roulette. Ok, maybe not that bad but you…
You know, no is a funny word, right? We hear it and we stop. You ask a question, the answer is no, you accept it and walk away. The end. You may not like the answer no, but it’s too late, really, you’ve already acknowledged the fact that that’s what the answer is. It’s too…
I am writing this from my motel room in Toronto. Tomorrow morning I fly out to Costa Rica for a 3-week volunteer mission. Just typing that out feels weird to me. I can’t believe this day is here and I’m actually really doing this. I’m still in a teeny bit of shock. I’m finally doing…

So before everyone gets their panties in a bunch or any men or women reading this thinks this is baloney, sit tight. My blogs are my views. They are generally general. If you have your own opinions or views about this or any other blog, that’s great and maybe you can be a guest contributor…
Fun quiz time again. Apparently this abstract image test will reveal your true personality and after answering all the questions as honestly as I can, turns out I am passionate and full of zest. Go figure. Now I get that we don’t need to take image tests on the internet to determine our true personality….
I’m no stranger to substance abuse. I’ve had addictions to prescription pills (don’t judge) and probably smoking too much weed in my 20s and doing enough blows to know that it’s not my thing anymore. I’m currently still addicted to nicotine and hope to one day kick that to the curb. Nope, no stranger at…
Dealing with divorce is tough for many reasons. Not only are we dealing with the emotions and logistics and finances, but after the dust has settled, we may feel like our life’s plans have changed direction. The life you planned and your vision of the future may disappear, leaving you with a feeling of not…
