I feel awfully at peace today. It just popped out of nowhere, really. How does one get to a place of peace? For me, it can come through a few ways, but today it came from feeling aligned with life. It feels like the place I am in and what I see in front…

8 instead of 0.
The other night, I found myself looking at life from a limited view. Life has its cycles and many times, those cycles feel like a circle. Going in circles in life is frustrating. In emotional reality, going in circles in life is just going through the motions without addressing and feeling the emotions. Circling…
Don’t trip on fear.
As our day tends to flow, there are many obstacles we face. The world will always throw something at you that you aren't ready for. It comes in all shapes and sizes, but each day has obstacles. I've learned, over time, that each obstacle that shows up is just another part of life. I…
Learning and doing my best.
Today is my first day at my internship. Naturally, I have some butterflies. Those butterflies aren't rooted in fear - just the uncomfortable feeling of doing something new. When new opportunities come into our lives, we have to realize we don't know much at that moment about what we are doing. We have to be…
Mindful of my mindset.
It's always funny to catch yourself in the midst of thought. I find myself "spaced out" in thought sometimes - then I realize I'm doing it and snap out of it. I've always tried to maintain focus when I'm diving into my thoughts. Lately, I haven't had to catch myself in the middle of…
Planning.
Yesterday, I started to plan for my final semester of college (I can't believe it started today!). I've always loved planning things out and maintaining organization. It always seems to bring me a sense of peace, a sense of control, and de-stresses my life. However, a thought crossed my mind as I was…
How patience becomes easier.
"Patience is a virtue." As I've discussed before, I have been in a period where I've had to wait for things to come. I knew they were coming (and they were good things), but I couldn't do anything about them because it wasn't time yet. Now that the time has come for these things…
There’s always something to be thankful for.
Unfortunately, I am feeling a bit sick today. Being sick is obviously not ideal, but the mindset that you have can go a long way in the path to getting better. Earlier in the day, I caught myself sulking in the fact that I'm not feeling well. I didn't really do much about it. Once…

Dealing with things you can’t control.
As human nature provides, all of us want to have control of what goes on around us. That way, we could make everything be on our own timeline. We could make everything align with the exact idea we have on how something should work. We could make things so much easier for ourselves. But,…
Bound and determined not to be bound.
As I continue to reflect on my goals/reminders for myself in 2020 and look at my current to-do list, things can become stressful. I don't handle stress the best, but I start to handle it better when I take a step back... So that's what I did today. The step back I took today…
