I was scrolling through social media the other night before bed and I stumbled upon a post that posed the following: if you could release yourself from anything right now, what would it be? At the time the question didn’t resonate much with me. Don’t get me wrong, as there were a thousand responses that… Continue reading Day 48.

I had a funny experience this morning. I was on social media and I saw a post or two that I found really offensive. I know, I know, how is that funny? Or maybe you were wondering how this is something that bears mentioning since it seems to be the norm today, no matter what… Continue reading Day 47.

Yikes! Losing track of days (anyone else?)--excuse the audio. This post reflects days 44, 45, and 46. Apparently I've lived day 43 twice? “What if I told you that 10 years from now, your life would be exactly the same? I doubt you’d be happy.

My dad officially took a step towards retirement last week. This was a momentous occasion that was overshadowed by the COVID-19 crisis. Anyone moving towards retirement is a cause for celebration. My dad moving towards retirement is kind of earth-shattering, for him…and well, for me. While both my parents have always encouraged good, honest, hard… Continue reading Day 40.

This morning my mom mentioned to me that my dad stated that everyone’s dust is different. Then she asked me what I thought my dust looked like. I didn’t hesitate. I told her that I thought my dust was sparkly and smelled faintly of vanilla. In return, she shared that her dust was filled with… Continue reading Day 39.

“Privilege is being born on third base. Ignorant privilege is thinking you’re there because you hit a triple. Malicious privilege is complaining that those starving outside the ballpark aren’t waiting patiently enough.” ― Glennon Doyle, Untamed I keep revisiting sections of ‘Untamed’ because it is just. So. Good. I recognize that I may enjoy Ms.… Continue reading Days 37 and 38.

A friend asked me yesterday how I was doing. Before I could respond (I am objectively slow in writing out texts as compared to most) she shared with me that she felt like she was normalizing.
