I found this journal entry from October 24, 2014 and just felt the need to share it .... These past few days have been rough. Living in a big city it's very easy to feel alone and lost.

things aren’t always as they seem…

It's all about perspective, isn't it?  Social Media has now made it so that everyone out there on the internet, both friends, family and strangers alike can see the most glamorized version of our lives, they can see what we choose to portray.

While that might sound like a stupid and incredibly obvious statement to make (because of course, duh... time continues and the world does keep going no matter if I'm here or there)... sometimes the actual reality of this is … Continue reading the passing of time

Today I've been spending a lot more time than usual reflecting on life....  I feel as if all my recent blog posts have been about all the crazy things spinning round and round in circles in my head.
