The Journals
Hello, I see you’ve stumbled upon the musings hidden deep in the clandestine shadows…
Okay, okay — I’m going to drop my weirdo act now.
I’m here to be super real and honest with you while incorporating my glorious sense of humour wherever I deem fit. This is really just a chat/ramble from me to you. I’m hoping I can save you the mistakes I made or at least help you feel less alone in yours.
Here you will find my journal-like philosophies or advice about love, heartbreak, healing, happiness, culture, and all the woes and wonders that exist within this human experience called life.
How To Stop Being “Too Nice.”
I’ve seen it firsthand: a nice person goes from being sweet, caring, and patient to cold, resentful, and bitter. This is a result of being repeatedly used or taken for granted by the wrong people.
Being “nice” isn’t the problem — it’s being OVERLY nice that’s the problem.
So, my fellow pathological people-pleasers: This is for you.
Pain, Loss, Inspiration, and Hot Sauce (A Journal Entry).
Today marks my 10th blog post, and to celebrate, I decided I’m just going to ramble from the heart.
From the date I started this blog to now, my world has flipped its head upside down, and recently, something’s been happening … writer’s block. Ah yes, the dreaded woe to writers around the globe.
After much digging and pondering, I think I’ve figured out why I’ve been faced with this. First, I have to tell you my story.
A Season of Solitude (PART TWO): The Four Steps to HEALING.
Single does NOT have to mean lonely and depressed. In last week’s blog post, I got into the benefits of partaking in elective solitude. I talked about the concept of being “whole” before getting into a romantic relationship as well as why embracing solitude is vital for true inner-work.
This week we get into the EXACT steps I took on my road to healing.
A Season of Solitude (PART ONE): Why I’m CHOOSING To Be Alone Right Now.
A season of solitude doesn’t have to be so scary. If you do it right, it can actually be one of the most liberating experiences you’ll go through.
By constantly running away to be saved, you end up running into a new mess that you inevitably find yourself running from in the end, repeating the cycle … again.
Well, I decided I wanted to break that cycle and to do so, I had to face a COLD truth.
How To Get the Ultimate REVENGE.
Okay, so it seems everyone and their mom know about the ongoing beef between Megan Thee Stallion and Nicki Minaj. But wait — how on EARTH did Ben Shapiro get in the rap god diss-track mix???? Lol.
We can pretend we aim to be the bigger person and “kill ‘em with kindness,” but we all secretly want to know the tip-top secrets of getting real revenge.
Well, I’m gonna give ‘em to you.
Why Being “Hot” Will Ruin Your Life
If you haven’t had an ugly phase, you shouldn't be allowed to be hot. The “ugly phase” is vital in cultivating your personality. The problem with a lot of “hot girls” these days is that Y’ALL HAVE NO PERSONALITY OTHER THAN BEING NICE TO LOOK AT.
Sure — you’ll attract a lot of unworthy men and attention, and you’ll also get the easy way in/out of things, but what kind of lasting happiness and true partnership will that bring you?
Why Your Dumb New Year’s Resolutions Never Last (and why mine WILL)
It’s evident that everyone — even the New Year’s resolution naysayers (me) — feels this overwhelming pressure to stir up a resolution by the time the clock strikes 12 on Jan 1st. It’s become a global tradition and we almost feel like a failure if we don’t have a goal in mind. So why is it that by mid-February, 80% of New Year’s resolutions have failed?
