When I am in a state of depression or anxiety (which is much too often for my liking), I start to reflect. There are many areas of your life to assess during a time of self-reflection. And these things change as you sit down each day or each time you reflect. It is all a…
Thoughts
Shifting my focus.
Most of the time when I am writing, I am writing to get things off of my chest, dealing with depression, stress, anxiety, or other negative feelings. Tonight, I am writing with a light heart and a smile. As I sit here and think about my life right now, it is incredibly far from perfect.…
Sometimes, you just have to let go.
Over the past few days, I've been thinking about a lot. All of these thoughts are on purpose, as I am sort of on a mission to find out things about myself. I want to know what's bothering me. Why can't I shake these things? I want to know why my emotions are so up…
It pays to be patient.
Each time I look at my life, I feel like I know what I want. And I want it NOW. I don't know how to get it or if it's even possible, but I want it immediately. It's easy for us to look at our own lives and pick out our wants. As I continually…
What do you want from life?
As I sit here today, I am thinking about my future. Usually, those thoughts stress me out, but it feels different today. I want to figure out what I want to do in all aspects of my life. What kind of job do I want? What kind of relationships do I need? What will fulfill…

Over the past few days, I've continually stressed about many things in my future: - Will I find the right woman to spend my life with? - Will I find the right career and be able to support myself? - Will I be okay? The more I think about these things, the more I begin…
Words.
This post has been in the works for a long time. It has taken a lot of reflection and a lot of thinking over the past two years to put together. I have always struggled with figuring out why I act a certain way or why I like something or what my purpose is. I…

February 4th: The Super Bowl.
Good Morning! Waking up on this Sunday morning with high hopes and energy. Tonight, Super Bowl 52 will be played in Minneapolis between the New England Patriots and the Philadelphia Eagles. For me, this is one of the biggest, if not the biggest, days for me as a sports fan. I have been a huge…
