November 27th, 2017 Dear sir/madam, I am writing this letter in response to the “Perfection is overrated” position.

I was emotionally frustrated, physically and mentally exhausted and really just in need of … Continue reading Digging through the Mountains
I really wish I could have come up with a more original title but at that I failed. I am not that "original" unfortunately (insert laughter sound here. haha)...To give credit where it's due, this post was inspired by a conversation I had midweek with a friend (thanks Manxo)... two claps for Manxo y'all!! … Continue reading Journey to SELF-Discovery (I promise I’m not being ironic)
