I had a thought spawn from a conversation I recently had. “Would you let him have a mullet?” A question was asked in regards to if I’d let my significant other grow a mullet.
Other ideas and thoughts I’ve had about other topics synced with my reply. I chose to dig deeper and ponder it later after the conversation had ended.
Moments ago, I was walking my dog thinking about how hard work and manifesting something in my life has played out for me. As I was pondering this topic, I looked up towards the trees that blocked my full view of the moon- in hopes that I would start this blog out with something inspirational to say. But as much as I’d like to open up with something enlightening about the moonlight, about how enchanting it appeared and tie in a stoic metaphor- humor won and here I am describing my thought process.
Women are beautiful beings. We have gone through so much over time as history has shown us. We continue to fight back. We continue to grow and push past limitations. We start and stay determined at chipping away at boulders that are blocking our path.
Whenever something significant happens on a date (Ex. June 29th,) it is hard to imagine that life is able to move on. That the specific date something happened on, is forever known to you as ‘the date you just want to make it through.’ I recently chatted with family and when I asked someone closeContinue reading “Reflections 9.7.22”
As I write this, I stare at two paintings that hang together on my wall. One is a beautiful blue, green, and pink tones (the northern lights) over snow-covered mountains at night. The artist did a fabulous job framing the focal point with spruce trees.
The other is a beautiful fall setting including poplar/Aspen trees and pine trees on each side of a reflecting silent, calm river. There is one lone tree that leans into the river as if it were about to lean over and quench its thirst.
Stop trying to control everything. There, I said it.
I used to be that person who tried to control things I probably should not try to control. A. Because it is most likely none of my business and B. It makes you more toxic.
Often times, as we grow older, we lose sight of what we once viewed as special. Yes, we evolve as we grow older and what we found special may not be the same as when we were younger….
She recognizes that she needs to change her narrative. In order to move forward and be happy, she needs to let go of a lot of sh** that has weighed her down and attempts to trip her up. Yes, trauma has given her a whole lot of resilience and perspective. However, she doesn’t owe her trauma a damn thing.
I tend to avoid writing about things that are explosive by nature.
For the past however many days since Roe Vs. Wade first made headlines, it has made me reflect a lot not only about that, but other things that tie into that.
Hear me out with questions I have asked myself and am still researching. I believe that the most ignorant thing a person can do is be stuck in their ways and forget logic and reason. Also, forget to understand all sides to a topic.
It is annoying to wait. It is annoying to have to use patience.
Have you ever just wanted something so bad, have seen it only with a tunnel-vision perspective, then gotten really annoyed something did not pan out how you wanted it to go?
Picture a snake shedding its skin. Be that snake. Shed your old habits so many times that you’re too unbelievably light-hearted and warm. I know, I know snakes aren’t warm. Be warm in the sense where you smile more and worry less. You laugh more than you cry or you cry while you laugh.
A beautiful thing begins as you get older. You begin to understand yourself in new ways. You slowly become accepting of yourself as you continue to grow and learn.
I think a necessary skill to have in life is the ability to see a situation for how it truly is/was.
I once met a person who said they did not ever want to be a part of a “broken” family. Meaning, they did not want their immediate family to be split up by divorce.
