Bookstore? Do You Mean Paradise?

I have always imagined paradise will be a kind of library. Jorge Luis Borges Bookstores and libraries whisk me away from it all. They are, without a doubt, my paradise. What kind of things can you do in a bookstore? I’m glad you asked. You can judge books by their covers, then give your favoriteContinue reading “Bookstore? Do You Mean Paradise?”

There’s a Time for Everything.

Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy. Dale Carnegie This girl right here, (the one writing this blog post) is a woman who strongly believes in good healthy rest. But when you wannaContinue reading “There’s a Time for Everything.”

Juggling?

I’m always trying to show versatility. I’m juggling, and I’m flipping fire, and I’m chewing gum and rhyming at the same time… on a unicycle, while playing the drums. MF Doom I feel this quote! 2023 is coming in hot and I’m so ready for it!! Anyone else got a ton of shtuff coming yourContinue reading “Juggling?”

“l’art pour l’art”

“Art for art’s sake” The blank page isn’t so bad when you wanna have fun. And editing is even more fun, when you like what you’re writing. Mindset is everything.

Lighten the Load

I’ve spent the weekend resting and cleaning. I’m still tired and still need to clean. These two things are never done.

Healthy eating, getting in bed early, using organizers, put things away right away, whatever helps to lighten theContinue reading “Lighten the Load”

You’re Doing Something

I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes. Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. You’re doing things you’ve never done before, and more importantly, you’re doing something. Neil Gaiman I don’t like making mistakesContinue reading “You’re Doing Something”

Whoa, Slow Down

I’m wiped out. I gotta figure out how much energy I really want to put into my workouts. Too much, and I’m down for the count. Thing is I tend to push myself pretty hard in the gym because I love the challenge buuut I can’t push myself so hard that don’t wanna do anythingContinue reading “Whoa, Slow Down”

Experience

Having a new experience doesn’t require having fun. The point is being able to see the world from a new perspective. It’s to add on to what you’ve already acquired throughout your lifetime. Of course we planners visualize these perfect moments with joy and laughter and silly little family games. But those things are bonusesContinue reading “Experience”
