About Me

About Me

Hello. Thank you for taking the time to view my blog!

I am a young mom, with plenty experience, and much to share. 

I find that, often, I am a pessimist. Although, I strive, daily, to change my mindset, first, in order to change the things around me for the better. One could say that I am an "optimistic pessimist"!

​

I have acquired much knowledge, in my short life, on the typical things taught in school, yes, but also on those things that people pay little attention to. The things, that some, deliberately, try to block out.

My main focus pans out around life-changing experiences/altercations that are self-battles.

Self-conscious. Love. Broken-hearts. Insecurities. 

I love emotions. 

That may seem like much, but it really is. 

People like to shut off their emotions, because they fear they become weak.

My focus is "Love". 

Love is... EVERYTHING.

To have love is a blessing.

To feel love is a luxury.

To hold love... or the one you love is an honor.

To BE loved... genuinely, honestly, and completely, is a beautiful feeling.

But, to love the one that loves you... to find that person out there alongside all the others in the world, that overlooks all your flaws, and takes the time to KNOW you for you... Now, that is one of the most beautiful feelings in the world. 

​

The thing that I hate the most in conversation is, "You guys are too young. You don't know anything about love."
-Drives me insane!
​
Everyone, with the correct functions, is capable of love. 
​
I have loved, and I have felt love.
I have lost love, and I have wished I lost it.
​
One main aspect of love that I have not figured out as yet, is how to let go.
​
The second is how it works...
Why can't we choose the who, the what, the when, the why?
-And most importantly, the HOW!
(How we love the person, or things we fall for...)

Coping: Find distractions. Find things you love.

-My daughter has been my biggest, and best, distraction. She has given me a new found love.

Words of advice: Be open to NEW, DIFFERENT, BETTER.

-You just might be surprised!

My aim 

is to give someone hope through my phrases or collections. If not, I just hope to relate to the broken/healing heart that thinks they are alone... because you are not.
 
Healing is a long, exhausting process. But it is a process... it will take time, it will be frustrating, but you will get through it.
 
And I have found that hard things get a lot easier when you have someone else there with you, and cheering you on. And I WILL BE THAT PERSON!
