Learning I’m Not Hard to Love Was My Biggest Fight
I used to think I was hard to love. Or maybe I was just too much, or not enough. I’d be the one who blamed myself first when anything went wrong, especially in my love life. It was easier that way, right? To believe that the problems came from something inside me. Maybe I thought…

Am I Rusty or Just Healing?
Okay so first of all, hi. I know I’ve been quiet for a bit (a whole week, which is like forever in my world), but I’m back now, and I’ve got a lot to say. And FYI, I wrote this around last week. I had a weird dream the other night. Not gonna lie, it…

I Don’t Need to Understand Everything and That’s Okay
I accept the fact that sometimes I don’t need to understand anything. And that’s new for me because I’ve always liked to analyze everything. Sometimes that’s a good thing, but lately, I’ve come to a conclusion, maybe not everything needs to be understood. And weirdly, that makes me enjoy life a little more. I don’t…

Sick of the Same Old Power Struggle
I have been watching Jubilee a lot lately. I just realized how much I enjoy hearing people argue. Not in a toxic way, more like, it’s a space where people actually speak their minds. But the more I watch, the more I feel like some men just don’t want to accept the fact that women…

Being a Woman in a Misogynistic World
Sometimes, I have to remind myself that good people still exist. Because let’s be real, the world feels like a constant cycle of bad news, bad people, and bad vibes. And when it comes to men, I have to remind myself even more. There are good men out there, sure, but damn, when you live…

I Am the Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me
I just watched a stupid movie called “Ricky Stanicky” on Prime Video. It was okay, not something I’d rave about. But near the end, there was this line: “Erin’s the best thing that ever happened to me.” And out of nowhere, a tear rolled down my cheek. My brain instantly asked, “Has anyone ever felt…

What to Do When You Miss Someone?
I’m someone who always misses people because, duh, I’m a lover girl. But it’s not just that, I think I’m a nostalgic person in general. Not in a sad, miserable way, but in a “wow, that was a good time” kind of way. I just miss the feeling, you know? But lately, I’ve been wondering……

Surviving a Home Full of Miserable People
Ok, that might sound harsh, but it’s the truth. My family is the perfect example of what happens when people who shouldn’t be together are stuck in the same house, trying to make it work. The reality is, we’re all trapped under one roof, and it’s hard to ignore the tension that fills the air…

Solo Date, A Few Things on My Mind
Two days ago, I decided to take myself on a date. It had been a while since I went out alone, and I figured it was about time. At first, I was nervous, so much so that I ended up calling a couple of friends just to hear their voices. As soon as I hung…

True Confidence is About Feeling Good in Your Own Skin
Confidence is not about being better than anyone else. It’s about knowing I look good and recognizing that everyone else looks good too. If confidence makes you put others down, that’s not confidence, that’s narcissism. And that’s also the behavior of something people are talking about online these days: the “Pick Me Girl.” I’ve been…
