Regret. I am only a few words into typing this and you got a lump in your throat from reading the first one. Regret is a feeling that can engulf your entire being in seconds. It has the power to change who you are, how you think, and every single little step you make from this second to the end of your life. So what is regret? You know that feeling you get when your throat closes, and so does your... Read More »
Last April, I started having severe stomach issues and they got progressively worse, as if there is anything worse than projectile vomiting, until I gave in and went to the doctor to have things checked out. I had an inkling that it was more that the Acid Reflux that was diagnosed, so after being in excruciating pain followed by food poisoning-esque reactions, I pushed for testing. Sure enough, my...

You don’t deserve to put up with that garbage. I’ve experienced the boss from hell. Let’s call him Lucifer. He tried to make ... Read More »
My pimples are only skin deep. My skin won’t stop me because I’m a smart, beautiful, bride-to-be who is a partner in a company. …phew…that statement was harder to write than you would imagine. I think that I re-wrote it six times. Each time with the voice in my head saying, “people know you have bad skin, you’re pretty, but don’t be so bold as to ca... Read More »

I told her that was a lie. I have 3 and can tell you it isn’t easier. You are outnumbered! That means, one of you has 2 and the other has 1! Maybe when they get older, it gets easier? But I ...
