The Life I Created In Mind, The Truth I have Lived My Life
Have you ever dreamt of your future life when you were a little child? What dream did you have? I have dreamt of my future life as a little child, and I believe lots of you had done that too. Do you still believe the dream you had? Do you live the dream now you had as a child?

The Truth, The Whole Truth?
At first, I wasn't planning to enter this challenge. I didn't have any real mentors growing up, and the people I look to now for guidence and support are more a relationship of friends and equals. Most of the people I can honestly say I "drew inspiration" from were more in the sense of "right, I'm never being like that jerk!" than an example to follow.

Do You Want
This is a sad, but true story of false hope, isolation, disguises, lies, drugs, deceit, and more. While someone/as well as everyone on the side of town, I currently have to live in, apparently believes they are more important than any others, aren't they the ones who feel the least important in the bigger picture. With my last name being my maiden name legally now and literally mine only, I have a different type of security than what my married name came with, is what I have been shown. I still know it is a fraud, trying to get me to put the blame on anyone, but the obvious truth.

people watching at the coffee shop
I'm supposed to be here curing my unemployment, being productive, making the most of all this new-found free time. I am not, however. Instead, I'm making a nuisance of myself and being a drain on this coffee shop's limited resources while amusing myself by writing about the people within my immediate vicinity.

How Sweet Is Your Tea?
Whilst what I write here is on the subject of Martial Arts, the advice on offer can apply to all walks of life by people wanting to better themselves and achieve the achievable...because it’s all achievable. There is nothing we can’t do if we will face our ‘Shugyo’.

Epiphany
This is a story about me and how I ended up where I am right. The prologue leads up to where I am currently. Here I was on New Year's Eve, the last day of 2021. I just turned 22 years old the day prior and was out with a couple of friends. My friend's birthday was in a couple of days, and we were taking turns writing on a card we got him. Everyone was writing their best wishes for him, and it was finally my turn. I didn't know what to write and thought about it for a while. Suddenly words flew through my head, and I quickly jot them down on the card. The words were " Make this year your year. Don't take any moment for granted."

2022: New Year, New Me?
January 1st, 2022 I love new beginnings. A fresh season usually begins with a moment where, whether we choose it or not, something that wasn’t meant to carry on ends and something new takes its place: moving to a new city, starting a new relationship, welcoming a little life into the world, launching your first business, etc. They’re occurrences that are noteworthy enough to effect the trajectory of our lives. And while those events happen sporadically to each of us from time to time, I think there’s something inspiring and rather enticing about being given the opportunity, along with all humanity, to accept the invitation to make this the new year, new me.

The Hurt of Not Writing
Yesterday I didn’t write , but I wanted to . This wasn’t writer's block (I have written a piece on how I deal with this here), this was something else. Normally I can write about anything , a piece of junk I found in the street , something I found at the bottom of a rucksack , a person I have met , an album or book I like , or something that happened to me in the past.

The Church Robbed me of Motherhood
My unexpected journey of motherhood began about 10 years ago in July of 2011. I never expected to be pregnant. I only took a pregnancy test for the heck of it. I remember that my exact reason for “peeing on the stick” was just to see what it would say.
