Life’s funny how it works sometimes. Sometimes you have to make hard decisions, sometimes their easy. Recently I was facing a hard decision, and decided against moving forward with something. Looking into myself, I knew it wasn’t the right time or circumstance to put myself in that situation. Well, turned…

The idea of love is far fetched. Meeting someone to spend the rest of your life with, and never wanting anyone else seems kind of unrealistic. At least when you’re a kid anyways. As you age, your grow and change into someone you weren’t. In the last 5 years, I’ve…

It’s confusing some days, when you’re head tells you no, and your heart says something different. There’s a person in my life that has made a couple of appearances the last couple of years. I’d like them to stay in my life, but part of me feels like they don’t…

“Love is like the wind, you can’t see it, but you can feel it.”  A Walk to Remember, Nicolas Sparks. One of my favorite quotes. It always brings me back to standing on the dock at my aunt’s house in Georgia overlooking the coastal waters. My mother and her siblings…

My fitness journey has been going better than planned. 🙂 This is the first time I’ve been solely dedicated to changing my lifestyles; eating right and working out a majority of the days in the week. It’s really paying off. I’ve lost 9 pounds over around a month and I…
