Happily ever after begins with YOU!


 There comes a moment in life when everything seems like it is falling apart. Nothing is going right, and tears just keep streaming down your face. No matter how hard you try to stop it, they just keep flowing down your face, splashing on the floor. Mascara streams down your face as if there is nothing else you can do to stop it. Heartbreak is truly the most painful experience we have in life. There is nothing more devastating than the utter pain of your fragile heart breaking into a million little pieces. 

Heartbreak is the worst and unimaginable reality that we all have to endure at some point in our lives. Sometimes it is having a loved one pass away. Other times, it's when you picture a life with someone you love, but then that breaks apart, and you have to move on and find someone else to share that love with. There is a great pain that you feel deep within because everything you ever thought has changed, forever. Somedays, it is hard to wake up and go about your day because you feel as though you wasted several years of your life thinking this person was the right one. Other days, you just have to look at yourself in the mirror and remind yourself of how worthy you truly are. It is a hard reality to accept, but sometimes we have to go through this so we can learn and grow, to better our own selves, and find our inner strength to keep going in life. You cannot grow without facing these obstacles, and you have to accept it.

 Healing takes time. Somedays, it is so extremely hard to wake up and get out of bed. Something is wrong, you know it, you feel it, but you cannot explain it in words. As far as we know, everything is fine, but it is not. Your face is a mask. On the outside, you stand there with a radiant smile. On the inside, you are screaming and falling apart. You feel as though no one understands the pain you are experiencing, so you let it go and keep it all to yourself. One day, you will find someone who takes away all of this pain, and they are going to give you a better reality than you ever thought was possible. It does not matter who, because your future partner will love you so unconditionally that you will forget about this pain you feel right now. At the end of the day, your real friends show you what it is like to be the best version of yourself that you can possibly be before the right person does come along. Do not dwell on the "what-ifs" or "the ones" because, at the end of the day, the only person that matters in your life is yourself. You can live happily ever after with yourself, and you can and will get through it, just do not lose sight in yourself.

The Harsh Reality of Planning Your Wedding Without Your Mom

When the countdown nears 0 days, the butterflies begin to dance around your stomach, your cheeks become sore from smiling so much, and there's a sense of peace that drops over you because you're finally marrying the love of your life.  This is the best time of your life, and you could not be more overjoyed.  Suddenly, sadness starts to hit you like a tidal wave that came without warning. The tears start flowing and cannot stop. You can't breathe, and everything else starts to feel heavy. There's an empty void that cannot be filled, and your chest begins to break in two.  This was the best time of your life, but now it's all starting to hit you in a million pieces.  The one person who should be here- your rock, your stability in an uneasy balance, the glue that has held you together- is not here. Your mom.  ... It's no secret that I have been through more obstacles than I'd like to admit. Several of these obstacles occurred when I least expected them, like a ...

The Eve of Everything

Every eve of the new year, we are faced with this sentimental thought: what did I achieve this past year? Every person has a different list with different goals, different memories, and different outcomes. We all experienced the year, but each one of us is on a different path, experiencing something different each day. Some of us lost loved ones, and everything crumbled beneath our feet like an unexpected earthquake. Some of us graduated, got married, and had kids. Some of us experienced breakups that either crushed us or gave us our life back. Regardless of what you experienced this past year, please know that your journey is not going to be the same as everyone else.  God is literally the author of all of our lives. We are our own main characters. We will go through our own plots, experience different conflicts, face highs and lows, and in time, reach our endings. Everything we are experiencing is like a journey we're destined to travel through. It's not a race, but a journe...

In the Blink of Christmas Morning

It’s 6:00 a.m. The house is quiet, everyone still asleep, but you burst from your bed with excitement. You rush down the hall to your parents’ room, screaming and cheering until they wake up. Then you sprint to the living room, where the presents sit waiting beneath the tree. Soon, everyone is gathered together, tearing open wrapping paper. Your dad is recording every moment on the video camera, your mom beaming with joy, smiling ear to ear as she watches you open your gifts. All is right with the world. You blink, and suddenly, twenty years have passed, and everything is different. You no longer care about the presents under the tree; you are simply grateful to be surrounded by family. There is no rushing anymore, just going with the flow. You do not worry about how much food is on your plate, and you go back for seconds because it is all just that good. The day slips by in the blink of an eye, and before you know it, you are back home, lying in your bed. ... The years have passed fa...
