30 Days of Being Thankful Pt.1
What are you thankful for this Thanksgiving? Why are we only thankful only around Thanksgiving or when we go to church, but most people aren't thankful most days. We as humans have something to be thankful for each day we just have to find what it is. Here's my month of being thankful. What are you thankful for this holiday season?

Normality: Determines or Abstains
Isn't it tiring when people who have no importance in our lives are feeling the constant need to ask to prove if we are good enough? And they make you question yourself, why can’t I be like a normal person, like them who just can’t get enough of each other accepting their miserable faces of boring choices... but define what is fucking normal? Maybe me sitting, having a battle (not a bottle, well that too, but a bit later) with my thoughts about what is real, makes me more normal than those people who reflect their projection of normality on me. And they are the first ones to vocalize what is good or bad, of course after watching some couching films made by people who think they are wiser than anyone else because they have enough self love to post themselves on Facebook. Like this is suddenly an indicator of the truth, LOL. Sure it is (rolling my eyes). Irony of life, eh?

Being One with Your Soul
There should be no limits to which you feel that care is not deserved, no bounds to which you must think of what you must do to deserve it. Self love, is not "I feel strong today, I am worthy today" it is, "I feel weak today, what is it I must do to feel strong again." We live in such an achievement based society that we are naturally more geared to feel that way and instead of us putting away our notions of egotism to conform to the image society wants, we need to see the image in the mirror as what we want. To be content with yourself fully is part of self love. It is not, "I must be better and more like them and then I will be happy." It is knowing that despite the quirks and supposed flaws you are worth loving and nurturing for the simple fact that you are human and you are alive.

A Guide to Happiness
Happy. Feeling content. Showing pleasure, being carefree. There are many many definitions of staying happy, but they don't apply to everyone. For a lot of people out there, as well as myself, it can be hard to find a reason to stay happy. There can be so many things that can come in the way of our happiness, and it sucks. We don't have any control over our emotions, for example, when you hear about something happy, your initial reaction is excitement and joy but if you get sad news, or something goes wrong it can make you very sad. I think of our lives as an emotional roller coaster. Sometimes its going up, but sometimes it's going way down. But fear not, I'm here to tell you five ways you can stay happy, no matter what. :) Now this is just a guide, it may not help you, but you may find it helpful. This is just what I think might help you.

Declutter Your Life
January is usually the time where we try to start fresh with new goals or habits. April rolls around and we try to get rid of all our things that we don't need/want anymore and make room for summer items. Doing these things and starting over is so refreshing for your house, closet and all things materialistic, but what about your mind? What things are you still holding onto that you know you need to let go? When are you going to start making room for new things to fill your mind and help you flourish into the person you want to become.

Fragile Contents
Wouldn't it figure? I specifically included (in bold letters) the word "FRAGILE" on my box of items from around the world. I carefully bubble-wrapped each individual, delicate possession with utmost precision and said a prayer with each piece of tape enclosure.

Rain, Moon, Talk
Last night, a sprinkling of autumn rain shook itself down from the clouds, and a not-quite-full moon the color of pearls rose in a velvet sky. My friend and I tucked ourselves just under the eves of her parents house, out of the wet and talked and cried and kissed cheeks and told stories and prayed.

I'll Be Happy When. Top Story - October 2018.
"I'll be happy when..." A common phrase many of us have uttered. I'll be happy when the bills are paid. I'll be happy when my spouse gets home. I'll be happy when we are living in our new home. I'll be happy when I leave this job. I'll be happy WHEN. The problem is every time you reach the WHEN you work towards your next one, never to reach this happiness you long for.
