Happy New Years guys! I'm a little late to the party but I spent some time offline sans social media so I can focus on enjoying life and being more present in the moment. We're SO over stimulated on a day-to-day basis that we sometimes lose touch with reality and forget to water our plants (literally and figuratively) - you know what I mean? Reflecting on 2018 So I'll b[...]
For some reason these pictures scream "ahhh, to be young forever." Like the ultimate emblem of youth. I have a love/hate relationship with growing older and just aging, period.

I was raised to create your own luck and to never hold your breath waiting for oppor[...]
I used to have this weird thing with birthdays where the build up and anticipation would always somehow lead to disappointment and emptiness- I guess in my head I set unreal expectations, even though it's just a regular day out of the year. I also had an extreme fear of getting older and for those reasons I really hated celebrating my birthday until recently. Overall, I fe[...]
2018 is the year of accountability. I'm a huge believer in personal growth/development and one of my biggest goals this year is to be in the best mental and physical shape of my life.
