I used to write these blog posts because I enjoyed sharing my feelings online. I tried to be creative in the ways I presented them; by making stories out of the emotions I experienced. Some posts were better than others, but nothing could match the relief I felt just by sharing my feelings with you.… Continue reading When To Say When

A boy went to a diner with his friends on a Tuesday night. It had been a long evening, one of those where you miss dinner and almost don't recognize. The only thing that reminded him was the rumbling of his stomach as he exchanged clothing and was preparing for bed. Naturally he looked toward his… Continue reading A boy went to a diner with his friends on a Tuesday night.
Who You Are
I think one of the most difficult parts about growing up is staying true to yourself because most of the time we aren't so sure of who that person is. It's so easy to want to change in order to fit it in with the popular-crowd. And I could never blame you for hiding a… Continue reading Who You Are
Do Something That Scares You
I once read a quote by Eleanor Roosevelt which stated: "You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face". What Eleanor meant wasn't that fear is some emotion to be ignored - or not taken seriously. No, fear is far more powerful than even… Continue reading Do Something That Scares You

Life goes on.
Some day you are going to wake up and your life will have completely changed and whether you like it or not, you're going to be faced with two choices - one is to dwell on the past as well as the things you cannot change, the other is to get up and see what… Continue reading Life goes on.
To love someone
I hope this letter finds you well. It seems like only yesterday, but it's been months since we last spoke. This may be the fifth or sixth letter, I don't really know I've begun to lose count. I am well. I finally heard back from that job I told you about. They decided to go… Continue reading To love someone
A little love
Someday you are going to be okay. You'll wake at the sound of birds chirping and the sight of a glistening sunshine. Your favorite songs will play on the radio as you cook your favorite morning breakfast. In your favorite t-shirt and trousers, you'll do that silly dance you do while no one's around. All… Continue reading A little love
Clarity
I think we all hope for those moments of clarity. Those moments when we are all alone, the cameras focused, lights dimmed low, and life begins to reveal itself. The problem with life is nothing is ever clear. The messages, the lessons, they leave us with no sense. We struggle and we cry for moments… Continue reading Clarity
