Saving Them
I feel completely overdressed in my billowing pleated dress. These heavy leather boots are like cement blocks, requiring me to consider each step. The bonnet atop my head feels like a flashing caution light that says, “Look at me, pay attention to me!” I catch myself lost in thought and realize that these people won’t even see such a thing for thirty or forty years.

Social Media and It's Influence
Say what you will about social media, but it's taught me a lot. Being a Millennial, I avoided TikTok as long as I could. I felt pretty comfortable with my go-to social media avenues, but I finally caved when my best friend kept sending me funny videos. Peer pressure: still alive and well in your thirties. Little did I know just how much I'd learn about myself via short video clips made by strangers.
