I have recently been struck by the feeling that I’ll never get to do all the things I want to do. What brought this on? Books. I’ve been back into reading lately and buying more books, borrowing books from the library, grabbing books from little free libraries that I come across…and keep getting this sinking…
I’ve recently learned that you don't need to be alone in order to grow. It was an idea I was obsessed with after my last break up. And in part, it was true. From age 16-20 I was in a relationship that consumed my whole entire world. So after we broke up, I had no…
