Today
Dear reader, Today has been quite long. I can tell you are waiting for it to end more peacefully than it started. I'm afraid that I can't help with that. I apologize. If you have time, you can reflect. Take a moment to think about what you had for breakfast so many hours ago. Think about why you ate that. Do you like eating breakfast? Were you hungry for it? Are you hungry now?

10 Things I Learned After Quitting My Office Job as a Designer, Leaving My Life Behind, and Moving to Australia with My New Boyfriend
Wouldn't it be wonderful if you could quit your job, say f*ck this and literally throw things up in the air?! Who doesn't want to live a different life sometimes, or all the time? This is probably one thing most people think of doing, some even think about it constantly, but in the end don't actually do it. That's because this kind of action requires a whole lot of courage. It's not easy leaving your safe income, your home, your friends and family, your dog, your dance class, your favourite bar or even your favourite food behind. It's hard getting out of our comfort zone for a reason. We get attached. But why put up with certain things we are discontent about? Like a job, a marriage, a city, a whole country? No matter what the reason might be, we will always have the option to change things. In the end it's really up to you. You have the option to stay or leave. Yes, it is scary, things can go wrong, but it's soooo worth it.

22 Life Lessons I Try to Live By
Earlier this month, I read an article written by one of my idols, Taylor Swift, in which she explained 30 things she's learned before she turns 30 later this year. After reading it, I thought of a list I have in the Notes app on my phone in which I continuously compile a list of moral life lessons I learn as I go through life.

Surviving the Immediate
I start with this disclaimer: I believe climate change is real and that our unchecked production, use, and disposal of carbon from the burning of fossil fuels is the greatest threat to the long term survival of the planet. If you disagree, you can stop reading here and save yourself ten minutes of frustration.

Finding My Voice
There is so much for me to cover within this story, but I will keep it short and simple. I was always one to overexert myself for others' acceptance, never had my own identity or voice, always remained quiet, and allowed people to take my shine time after time. I couldn’t find it in me to find myself, nor could I find my passion. Losing my childlike senses (imagination and dreams) and dealing with day-to-day life traumas caused me to become more numb than our planet already conditions us to be.

Are You Dead or Are the Dead Living Among the Living?
When you live in a world that revolves around people wearing masks, you begin to think that real is fake. The monstrous behaviors of the world and society have been so dismantled that we have lost touch and empathy. We have lost all human capability of loving and nurturing with pure heartfelt love. When was the last time you ever said I love you and actually meant it? This proves that love has been forgotten. Love has lost its meaning and purpose in pursuing where it matters most.
