THE PEOPLE WE MEET ARE THE PEOPLE WE LOVE

There are times when, watching someone narrate their life, I am eternally grateful to hear their story. I love learning about the little facets that make up a random stranger; what is hidden behind the curtain they present to the world. I believe that is the most exciting part about making new friends: slowly watchingContinue reading “THE PEOPLE WE MEET ARE THE PEOPLE WE LOVE”

SAY YES NOW, FIGURE IT OUT LATER

In my lifetime, I have said no to a lot of things. “No, I can’t dance at this party if no one else is going to”. “No, I shouldn’t order the burger since they are ordering the salad”. “No, I don’t mind taking on that extra responsibility“. It was always a resounding no… when speakingContinue reading “SAY YES NOW, FIGURE IT OUT LATER”

As a young child, one of my favorite things was meeting new people. At parties, my animated face lit up as I went around talking to guests old and young. I asked them question after question, and I honestly listened, without becoming engrossed in what I had to say next. As I grew up, likeContinue reading “MEETING NEW PEOPLE”

WHAT 2020 TAUGHT US

No longer was anything familiar, and to be honest, it felt like nothing was surprising anymore either. It wasn’t surprising that we could take a common struggle,Continue reading “WHAT 2020 TAUGHT US”

CONQUERING YOUR FEARS

If you talk to most people, their biggest fear would probably be clowns, snakes, or heights. Fears are something that everyone has, at varying degrees and on varying topics. However, fears aren’t only limited to the surface, what horror movies are made of. Fears come in all shapes and sizes and for most people, theirContinue reading “CONQUERING YOUR FEARS”
