I was in a relationship once where I was always looking out for him. Looking for ways to help him succeed, to make his life easier. And in the same breath, I was always changing myself for him. Forcing myself to like that he moved away for his job when I wasn't allowed to move…

Last month, I wrote about the Great Resignation and how inspired I was by the people who were gaining the courage to leave their jobs and do what makes them happy. I can now say I’m one of those people. I’m not so adventurous that I didn’t have a job lined up before I quit,…
Relationships are hard for a number of reasons. They involve two people, each who has their own thoughts, feelings, and complicated structure. Two people that are trying to melt their lives into one.

It may sound weird, but I get nostalgic for the beginning of the pandemic where there was nothing but time alone. Time to learn how to make pasta or sushi, time to clean my fridge and vacuum my car, time to binge watch the entire Twilight series. Lately, I’ve gotten so busy again. In a…
