I am tired. Not super exhausted, but I know I need to regroup and give myself a little time to recharge. There's no shame in that - being tired can come from 5 days of work in a row or it can come from an hour-long activity. Everyone has their own pace. …
I harp on the importance of being present as life presents each moment to you. Being able to experience every moment right as it happens is an incredible feeling. When you have your mind somewhere in the past or the future, you never really get the full feelings that life brings to you in a…
When I have an idea of what I want to express, especially when it's more of an abstract feeling, I put so much pressure on myself to portray it exactly how it feels. It's funny that I do that, because I don't even know how to describe it when I tell myself I need to know…
