Whether or not you think you have a creative bone in your body or not, most of us have interests that involve being creative. They can range from physical to mental, and allow us to de-stress, release our day, and also use another part of our brain, which we probably don't during our regular so- ...
the company you keep
People always say, you're judged by the company you keep. But what about the impact of the people you keep upon you? They either lift you up or make you a worse human being. Less of who you are. Less of who you want to be or imagined yourself as. How do you want to ...
how far will you go?
It's easy to set goals. It's easy to think of a plan. The hard part...continuing down the road towards your goal and getting to the finish line. Some of us have goals to get a promotion, some have a goal to lose weight, or to gain muscle mass, while others are looking to start a ...
The Dog days of Summer
We sweat. We sweat some more. We love the warmth of the sun on our faces, and then we say...ok that's enough. We start craving the crisp fall air by the time August is heading our way. Is the grass ever green enough? The dog days of summer... they get rough. But I've always learned, that ...
Captive Heat Wave Audience
As the heat wave hit NYC and surrounding areas, many of us were stuck indoors, hoping our AC and fans kept us comfortable and the power remained on. We kept our devices charged, and got ready to camp in for the weekend. Those who did venture out, quickly regretted it. It was the perfect weekend ...
Friends in the 90s
Who didn't love this show? I did hear that Netflix will be removing it from it's catalog come January ... worst news ever. However, it's a show that can make you laugh, relax, and just forget about the days worries with a little 30 minutes of our favorite friends. And don't forget the bloopers! One of ...
Little bits of comfort
We all have them. It could be a pen, a necklace, an old stuffed animal, or even a movie. Little bits of comfort that make us feel either at home, calmer, and/or just comforted. It's helpful to have these things, especially in our most stressful environments - such as work. And sometimes it's nice to ...
Just another lyric
Ever notice how one line from a song (or poem) can tug on your heart strings. It reminds you of something past, or something you once had. It could make you smile, or nostalgic, and perhaps even hopeful of something to come. Every time I hear the song "here's to the night" by Eve 6, ...
Do you own enough books?
One of my favorite things to do on a relaxing day is go to a bookstore and peruse the newest fiction books, especially the thrillers and suspense novels. Typically I'll walk out with one new book, especially to support the local book retailers despite being able to buy online for cheaper. It would be a ...
Another year younger, another year wiser
When you're past your mid twenties, time just continues to fly faster and faster, with each passing year. It's both a blessing and a curse in my opinion. In your 30s, it's like lightning speed (at least it seems that way, so far). With my next birthday literally around the corner I can't but reflect ...
