Don't Sugar Coat it- Life Sucks Sometimes.

 There tend to be a lot of unfortunate events that happen to people at the wrong time. There is a lot to be said about those who have unfortunate situations happen to them, and most of the time, they are innocent people who never deserved it in the first place. We lose people every day, but there comes the point where things can mislead us into the depths of the unknown. Nothing in life is ever fair. If it was, we would all be wearing diamonds right now, but we aren't. 

The many people that came before us had to work towards something to achieve something more significant. They had to work tirelessly because they could not afford to live comfortably. They experienced highs and lows, but they always came out on top after they suffered those low points in their life. 

Even the kindest souls on earth struggle because that is what we should do. We have to face these lows because we have to learn how to accept life for how it really is. We have to learn to make our own decisions, suffer consequences and adapt to living after loved ones are gone because one day, we are all not going to be here anymore. Life is not fair, but we have to keep going. 

You are allowed to struggle, feel sad, and feel joy, but you cannot let those moments of sadness and struggle to tear you up and rip you to shreds every time you feel that way. You have to stand up and look fear in the face, fight those battles coming towards you head-on, and live as if there is nothing else worth wanting to do because we cannot let the evil win. As humans, we are capable of so much more than we realize. If we do not like something or feel upset, we must change the environment we surround ourselves with. The struggle is worth all the reward in the end, you just have to keep pushing forward.

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 Life of a Showgirl: When Taylor Swift Lets the Spotlight Dim

While it’s no surprise that we’re big Taylor Swift fans in this household, something about this newest album release felt different. On the eve of the drop, anticipation ran high. Some of us drifted off to sleep with visions of glitter, feathers, and showgirls twirling in our minds. Others fueled up on caffeine, determined to stay awake until the clock struck twelve. And when it did—on October 3—we were ready for it. But this time, I chose sleep. The next morning, headphones in hand, I pressed play as soon as I woke up—and almost immediately, I felt something shift. Taylor’s music has always been deeply relatable—that’s never been in question. The Life of a Showgirl follows the forever-endearing The Tortured Poets Department, an album I adored with every ounce of my being. That record proved what so many of us already knew: Taylor is a poet at large. Naturally, expectations for this new album were sky-high. The Life of a Showgirl promised to peel back the curtain—to reveal life beyond ...

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...
