Yesterday, my sister and I went to see Wicked. We had purchased the tickets months ago, and it was a good thing. It gave me something to do this week. Once we got there, I have to say, I got sick. I was sitting on the end, though and was able to stretch out and [...]

Many people in life search for happiness. They base all of their life decisions on what they think will make them happy, but I was reminded that such individuals are all looking for the wrong thing.

As we near the end of the holiday season and the turn of the year, I cannot help but comment on New Year’s resolutions. I have never really been one to make New Year’s resolutions. If there is something I want to do, then I do not need to wait on the turn of the [...]

So, yesterday, we went to Noel Night, but earlier in the month, I had planned to be somewhere else. When I was in elementary school, my music teacher exposed me to my first full taste of opera. Now, I knew about opera and had heard clips, I could only enjoy most of it moderately because, [...]

So, like I have mentioned in previous posts, I am trying to be more positive and ultimately move forward with my life. I have a playlist to get motivated, I started a devotional, I have worked on actively letting go, I made blues basket, and I have otherwise been making conscious efforts to improve my [...]
