In Love Things

Chances are, you've been in love. Here is me navigating what it's like to be in love through my writing. Some of them are a little personal and revealing, so I've decided to just share a few for now. Being in love is one of the most beautiful things, but it comes with a side of uncertainty and pain sometimes. Choose to love anyway.

Routine vs Ritual- How to Be Spontaneous and Stable

Many of us have an idea in our heads of what 'having your life together' looks like. That being said, many of us also think that having a good routine, and sticking to it, is necessary to feel like you have it all together. This is something I have struggled with greatly, as I have discovered I am not too fond of routine. I have gone through trial and error, creating and breaking several different routines that were supposed to help me 'get my life together'. What I've discovered lately is that having a routine is not necessary- it's having rituals that really matters. You can have rituals without enforcing them in a strict routine. For example, I wanted to make a routine of going to the gym. Therefore, last week, I woke up early and went to the gym at the same time all week. It helped me to feel accomplished, but I quickly got tired of it and didn't want to go this morning like I have been. But who's to say I can't just go tonight after work? Why ...

Eating the Elephant- One Bite at a Time

We’ve all been there- drowning in stress and feeling like our life isn’t even close to being in order. Sometimes we feel as though we’ve lost sight of ourselves or allowed our train to derail. We reach moments in life where we let ourselves go. At times, it is really difficult to keep pursuing our goals and pushing forward. Life hits us in the face and we stop focusing on our health and well-being. And typically, when it rains it pours. It is easy to fall into a routine of “bad” habits. Before we know it, we feel like we have fallen behind and don’t know how to catch back up. It is important to know though- you most definitely are not alone.  Personally, I have struggled with mental health for quite some time. I am genetically inclined to having depression and anxiety, and circumstances have done nothing but cause a decline in my mental well-being. I am going through a time now in which I am incredibly unhappy with several aspects of my life. I haven’t been taking care of myself ve...

Learn to Live for Yourself

One of the most difficult lessons I have had to learn is that I will never be 100% happy if I live according to other’s dreams and desires. I have spent a majority of my life working towards a goal that was not mine and helping others piece together their own lives and happiness. I have found it difficult to identify what it is that I want and have hardly spent any time developing my own goals and dreams. These past couple months have been full of self-reflection and growth for me, and I have discovered that you have to start living for yourself. You have to stop living your life for other people. You cannot build your life around the desires of others and expect to flourish. Develop a sense of self and dive into your own goals and dreams. What would you set out to do if no one else’s opinion or thoughts mattered? Where would you be if you started doing everything you had ever wanted to do regardless of those around you? What’s holding you back from being everything you want to be? ...
