Things I Learned Growing Up

In the words of Demi Lovato, and probably some other people, 'what's wrong with being confident?'

I've tried to be confident my whole life, confusing being confident with being brave. I used to associate being confident with making things happen...but maybe it's also believing in yourself enough to know that the right people and the right things will find you? Maybe??? 

Anyway, confident is my word of the year so hopefully I'll learn some things about it in 2022.

Thank you ALL! 

This episode is about the sad sight of dead Christmas trees but it's also about how often we throw things away without a second thought when they've served their purpose. It's also about shining brightly again and again and again, no matter how many times you're the dead Christmas tree <3

If cherry blossoms can bloom every spring, there's no reason why humans can't too!

There's a song in Les Mis about looking down but this post is about looking up. I suppose both are equally important.

This post is titled 'On the Road' but guess what? It has nothing to do with the Jack Kerouac novel! 

Rather, it's about feeling like you're being pulled towards the past and pushed towards the future at the same time.
