We often stop and think to ourselves about how stressed out we are. How tired we are. How we could just use a day off. But we never really stop and think that we need all of those things because we've stopped taking care of ourselves. We just think that it's been a busy week,…

Who You Were Before You Were Broken
We all change, it's inevitable. We grow up, we experience new things, go through phases, meet new people. We take every little experience and slowly it changes us into a different person over time. Sometimes we anticipate change, sometimes we're thrown into it head first. Something that will definitely change a person is heart break.…
No One Owes You Anything
Some people deserve the world and some people just don't. Some people get what they want easily, some work hard for it, and some don't get anything at all. We all know that life isn't fair. We live it, breathe it, see it, and participate in it. So why do we constantly think we are…
Forgetting Not Forgiving
The phrase goes: forgive and forget. Stop feeling the resent you feel towards someone and put it in the back of your mind. That person's mistake that caused you anger or hurt is gone forever and you move on with your life. I've never really been one to forgive because a lot of people ask…
The Internet Is Making Us Lonely

Love Without The Drama
My first ever relationship was built on uncertainty. It was just like the movies, where there would be some sort of conflict and unrequited love. It was exciting, it made me think that all love needs to be that way. That we need to overcome some kind of problem in order to truly appreciate each…
The Pressure Of Long Term Relationships
My first serious relationship was 4 years long and when I say serious, I took it very seriously. I pictured marriage and kids. Planned where we'd live, where I'd go to college, and how our lives would be. At that point in my life, I would frequently say "why bother being in a relationship with…
I Don’t Know What I’m Doing And It’s Okay
If you eliminated all the people in your life asking you questions, pressuring you, and telling you what to do - where would you be? At one point in your life, you're going to have to fake it until you make it. That point in your life might just be now, in your 20's, when…
