Most of Us Sit on Our Butt Too Long

Health, Self Reflection

I’ll be the first one to admit, I sit on my butt way too long during the day because my job requires it. I use this fact to push myself when I exercise because my thinking is I’m not doing much of anything during the day even though I am (mentally). I had a massage

PTSD, Self Reflection

I’ve been absent for a while. Why? Because the last few weeks have been harder on me. Basically when it comes to emotions and things like that. I say this because spring time, for some reason although it’s pretty self-explanatory when I think about it, is harder for me than any other time of the

Journal Entry Type #4: Relax a Little Bit in the Fury of Life

03/03/2019

Random Thoughts, Self Reflection

Here is my fourth journal entry type. So, I tend to wear my heart on my sleeve and am mainly honest with where I am in life including my struggles, my successes, and my hopes and dreams. I’ve had this push and pull with being healthy as much as I can and find jogging/running is

Journal Entry Type #2: Nothing Left to Give, Leaving It Behind

01/28/2019

Random Thoughts, Self Reflection

My second journal type entry for January. Most people say I wear my heart on my sleeve and can be brutally honest with my life. I have for the most part although there are other things you have to keep to yourself. Yet, I opened myself up to possible misunderstandings back in my twenties with

When Human Life isn’t Guaranteed

Random Posts, Self Reflection

I found out today a person I graduated with from high school was killed a few days ago from a car accident. I wasn’t close to this person in high school nor was I after I graduated. He probably didn’t remember me. We had nothing in common. He liked hockey. I wasn’t all that interested

Self Reflection, Writing

I have slowly been getting back into my rewriting. I can’t tell you how much for the last two years, especially, I’ve pondered if I should just scrap my love story. I’ve thought who is even going to read this crap and if a handful of people that do read it, what will they think?

The Left or Right Brain Doesn’t Matter When You Should be Writing!

Random Posts, Self Reflection

I find the brain very interesting. Without it, you’re dead. With it, you can also feel at a loss or put another way depressed. I haven’t read or studied anything psychological for quite some time. At one point, I wanted to be a psychologist. Another time I wanted to be a social worker. A far-reaching

DNA: It’s What’s Inside You Morning, Noon, and Night

Asia, DNA, Self Reflection

I’m not going to mince words here. I’m completely fascinated by DNA and family lineages. Since I can only look in the mirror to remind myself that I too once had a biological father and mother with their own DNA, I decided to take a test to see what my results would be. I took

When the Rules Don’t Seem to Apply Anymore, Then What in Hollywood and Elsewhere? I Don’t Know!

Hollywood, Self Reflection, Social Media

Ever since accusations have been flung left and right at Hollywood actors and actresses about alleged abuse (some worse than others), I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about the perceived vigilante justice on social media (those not intimately affected by the offender), and the effects of it such as the person being condemned whether
