Paint the Picture You Wish to Admire

Dear Lovely Lady, I hope you had a wonderful day today full of good fortune and new opportunities. I had quite the wonderful day myself. On a sliding scale, I would have to say it was even above average. The only thing currently affecting my mood is my slowly dwindling battery life and my lack of motivation to find an outlet. Today got me thinking that a lot of the issues we face are all made in our heads. I remember once confiding in a friend of mine that I no longer understood who I was. I had become someone I could only barely recognize as a manufactured persona fit to serve the status quo with prerecorded answers to questions like what's your favorite food and where do you want to travel to. I wanted to be the daughter my parents could be proud of, the student her peers could look up to, a reliable friend to those around me. I'd started making decisions and life choices that would make everyone else happy without asking myself what would make me happy. I started to ...

Lunch Breaks Aren't Just For Kids

Dear Lovely Lady, I'm in the middle of my hour-time block marked "Lunch" as I write you this letter. I hope you're day is going as fabulously as you deserve.

However, all we end up with is a burn out wondering why all of our friends have become so distant.

A Harsh Lesson: The One You Didn't Want to Hear

Dear Lovely Ladies, As I was going through my notes in my notes app, I found something that caught my fancy. For my sake and for anyone that's feeling alone, I thought I would share an unfinished excerpt. "You will graduate from college in 3 years, get your dream job and leave it. Your grades won't matter and you'll feel aimless. You'll realize that money nor material items or status matter. You'll no longer tolerate doing things for the sake of appearances. You'll realize that those "friends" of yours are completely circumstantial and that the decisions you make impact your future more than you care to believe. Ultimately, you'll come face to face with all of the questions you've been pushing to the back of your mind because you're no longer juggling two jobs and attending school full time so nothing can block your questions from rising to the surface. Most importantly, you'll learn that the only vessel you have in this ...
