I have to be honest here: most of 2018 was not super great for me. It felt like things just kept knocking me down, and getting back up only meant getting knocked down again. But the upside to all of this? I feel like 2018 also taught me a lot about my life and myself. … Continue reading Phoenix Rising

Introducing Me
The first post of the year is always somewhat difficult. There are so many directions you can take, but I feel the first post of the year sets the tone for how your posts are gonna go. In 2017, I wrote a post about goals for the year rather than "resolutions" because I feel like … Continue reading Introducing Me
My Tattoo Shop Experience

Life Changes
I don't know how much you listen to country music, but there's a pretty popular song out there by Thomas Rhett called "Life Changes". It's super cute and talks about his life story. But I really like the chorus. A couple lines say "You never know what's gonna happen. You make your plans and you … Continue reading Life Changes

But I haven't really discussed the more negative things about college. Because I have to be honest with you: college is stressful. I'm winding … Continue reading College is…

What’s Your Reason?
Do you ever think about doing something and then realize you don't always have a reason for doing it? Recently, that thought has come into my mind, and I've been looking for my reasons for my actions. I have a lot of things I want to say that may not seem completely related. Just bear … Continue reading What’s Your Reason?

Flow through Life
I have to be honest with you: I've had a pretty emotional week. There have been situations that have come up that have just knocked me down. Originally, I was looking at focusing on one individual situation and the lesson I learned from that. But then I realized something. All of these situations had the … Continue reading Flow through Life
