Last Sunday marked the day that our nation was attacked. The day that countless lives were taken. The day that no one expected, but those affected will always remember. They thought they could break us. That their attack would destroy us. That we would never amount to anything more than our fate at that very … Continue reading What Truly Matters?!
Feeling alone is a troubling thing. Many are around, but it feels as if no one is there. No one can help or even cares. Being alone and feeling alone are polar opposites. You can feel alone without being alone and vice versa. Your mind plays tricks on you. It allows you to believe that … Continue reading You’re Never Alone
You have been struggling. Everything seems grey. Nothing is right. One bad thing and another one follows. You can't get up high before getting knocked down. You think you'll make it past the home plate, but instead, you strike out on the first go round. You're always striking out. It's as if the devil himself … Continue reading God!

They are afraid that they could be next. They are afraid that if they are in the wrong place at the wrong … Continue reading Are You Ready?!
The problem isn’t that you dream or that your mind is full of imagination. Dreaming big and hoping for all of your aspirations to come true isn’t wrong. Taking the steps in order to get there isn’t wrong either — but what happens when things don’t go as plan? When life catches up to you. … Continue reading You Are Your Worst Critic
I sit and stare at the blank canvas lying in front of me as I think of a way to commemorate my years of being in college. Four years.
