Find Your Inspiration

Hey All, So as the year of 2015 is coming to a close, next weekend, it's only natural to start thinking about your New Years' Resolutions and so that's kind of what this post will be about. More often than not, people make resolutions and they don't follow through with them, and honestly, until this past year, I've never really made any myself, partly due to that reason...This isn't a good or bad thing, but still it's the truth...I, however, encourage all you to claim 2016 as your year to [blank] and strive EVERY day to make that desire a reality! Some of the most common resolutions I hear of are about physical health (working out or eating healthier etc.) and while those are good things to strive for, I think that you should start with something else. More often than not, if you don't first strive to better your emotional/inward self, you won't be able to fully embrace becoming more healthy, physically. I'm not saying it has to be entirely one o...

It Starts At The Roots

Hello Everyone, Fair warning, this post may be repetitive of past blog entries from this year, but if you are new to my blog or even if not, I'm sure that some of it will still be fresh and hopefully helpful to you in some way.

I am much more at peace with myself and with my surroundings than I have been in maybe forever, and my perspective on so many things has changed, for what I believe to be the better. I've had numerous people tell me that they can see a change in me, even without me mentioning anything about my journey, and honestly, I feel as if, in some ways, I was "reborn" at the beginning of this year. I'm SO grateful to God for helping me walk through so much of my former baggage that I carried for far too long! Alright, so this post is going to be sort of a "tutorial" into how I was able to...

Month of Doing Without

Hey All, First off I just realized that last year I posted 43 times and this year I have only posted 19 so far...that is quite the difference, and hopefully, next year I'll be better at writing when I have inspiration instead of waiting until it leaves me and I forget half of what I was going to post on. We'll see. I have no idea how many of you actually care about whether I post or not, so probably most of this is for my own future benefit, but that's okay. Anyways, obviously we are in the month of December and as some of you probably know, this month the camp I work at closes down which is rather difficult for me. I only have deep cleaning a couple of days, and our Christmas party, in which I get to go to my favorite place on earth and see some of my favorite people, but that's not the only hard part; it also means I'm pretty tight on money this month. Yes, I have another job, but camp pays my bills and some extra, so now I just have savings/extra money coming in ...
