A Note on Love and Acceptance
I once felt judged that I was not enough - not sexy enough, not educated enough, not financially buffeted enough, not successful enough. It fueled destructive patterns that I would create to attain these things in order to please those whom I felt negatively judged by. What I learned about myself - and not only … Continue reading A Note on Love and Acceptance
When One Door Closes
This picture means nothing. What I mean, is: I was searching for one that I was hoping I took when staying the night in Laguna, Costa Rica.

Values, Virtues, and Habits

Life is Perfect?
I've been on a positivity kick for sometime now, and don't plan on turning my back on it. In the process, I've been playing around with the concept that life is, has been, and will be perfect in the future. This can be a rather tough concept when we have what seem to be negative … Continue reading Life is Perfect?
Be the Love You Seek
If you want love, be it. Start with you. Do YOU love you? How do you know if you're lovable or worthy of love if you don't give it to yourself? Are you lonely? Spend time with yourself!
