Figuratively, of course!
My memory is easily triggered. Sounds, smells, tastes…almost anything can take me back to one point or another in my life.
Tonight, a sequence of events viciously threw me back into the past. It was quite unpleasant to say the least. Sometimes I wish I was cold-hearted. Sounds ridiculous, I’m aware of that. But [...]

Matters of the Heart

So today I went to the doctor to try and figure out what is wrong with my heart. I had an EKG, a bunch of blood work and a ton of chest x-rays. The doctor said they’ll call me in a few days with the results. Hopefully, they figure out what is wrong with me [...]
Reality.

What’s the point? I mean really? I never seem to get anywhere anyways. 1 step forward, 2 steps back. Everyday. The same exact thing.
It’s frustrating. An endless cycle.
Simplify!

Life is hard. That’s a fact. But what baffles me is when people do things to further complicate their lives. Seems counterproductive.
The last few days I’ve been thinking rather intently on how my life has developed and unfolded in the last few years and the only conclusion that I keep coming to is that there [...]

Sometimes I can’t sleep. It’s not because I’m not tired or can’t fall asleep. It’s because I often feel that I will miss out on life if I waste time off in dreamland. It’s not reasonable thinking by any means, I understand that, but I can’t help feeling this way. I have this desire to [...]

I find myself daydreaming far too often. I could simply sit for hours and let my thoughts wander. I think about the future, I think about the present, but more often than not I think about the past.
I like to present myself as an individual who doesn’t dwell on the past or think too much [...]

Oh, How He loves us!
I’m daily amazed by creation. Nature is one of the most intriguing things to me. It is absolutely beautiful in Indiana this time of year. Fall is so pretty, the leaves have all changed colors, the weather is cooler, and there is just a certain smell in the air. It’s comforting.
I [...]
The Past is a Foreign Country

I’ve come to a conclusion…I miss my past…desperately. Not all of it, just certain aspects of it. Looking back, I realize how happy I was and how good things were and I just took it all for granted. I’m in my second year of college. I thought this whole moving on, growing up thing was [...]

One of my favorite things is waking up in the morning without an alarm, just letting my body wake up when it’s had enough sleep. I’ve been able to enjoy that luxury this semester as I only have a morning class once a week. It has been so nice. I don’t sleep in late, in [...]

Can you imagine living years of your life without knowing why you are here or having no idea what you are living for? Can you think of how tiring it would be to go day in and day out with no concept of any purpose? I, personally, think it would be an exhausting and discouraging [...]
