There’s Beauty in the Mundane
Rain falls and thunderstorms. The smell of cut grass. Seeing a smile. Hugging a friend. Shaking a dandelion vigorously so all the seeds fall off like feathers. Theres so much beauty in the mundane, yet why do we wish to be exceptional? I see a lot of people trying to rise to the top. Trying…

“Love can mean almost nothing or absolutely everything” – Diane Ackerman
I’m not even going to try touching on the subject of love. But I found this quote, and I just thought that it says so much by saying so little.

Last Minute Itis
Has anyone ever cancelled plans last minute? Sent that “sorry, cant make it!” text, just a couple hours before that actual hangout?

Wine a Little, Laugh a Lot
I went to a wine tour recently with one of my girlfriends, and rediscovered the beauty of wine. But what I took away from this trip was more rediscovering the beauty of freindship (corny I know). On our wine trip we met a group of moms travelling together for the first time, having their first…

Being a Judgemental Person
For a long time, being labelled as judgemental is something I’ve avoided, as you were seen as insincere, small minded, and apathetic.

If I have a judgement, does…

“Do what you have to do until you can do what you want to do” -Oprah
So I was watching an inspirational video by Oprah, as everyone does, and I came across one of her quotes “Do what you have to do until you can do what you want to do.” Now I feel like this quote is so different than all the follow your heart or follow your dreams quotes…

So I learnt a couple new words today
Facetious: Treating serious issues with deliberately inappropriate humor; flippant.Esoteric: Intended for or likely to be understood by only a small number of people with a specialized knowledge or interest.

” Play to your gifts, stop thinking you need all these other gifts” – Jay Shetty
I think I am just one of many people that constantly compares themselves to those around them. I mean its so hard not to, right? You’re walking down the street, see someone wearing something AMAZZEE, and wish you were more fashionable. Or you’re at work, and notice someone able to sleep with their eyes open…

“Sometimes you need to make the wrong decision multiple times, so you can finally make the right one”- Anna Akana
I’ve made bad decisions. Are they disastrous, abominable, preposterously horrific? No, they’re bad decisions. Now I don’t really believe in regrets in life. I believe the decisions we make teaches us lessons and makes us the people that we become in the future. So are decisions actually bad, or are they just decisions that lead…
