Taking Off The Mask To Live My Dream. Top Story - December 2021.
It all began as a young girl who just wanted to make everyone proud. Do your best, as long as “best” meant doing what everyone else had planned out for you. Me, I just wanted to write. But, that’s not a safe career. That’s not a respectable career that friends and family can brag about. To sum it up, it’s a career where others tell you “get a real job.”

Sleeping
So many times in my life, I looked back on people in that time in my space, and sometimes I wonder what happened to some of them; I mean, not that it really matters to me now anyway! I can’t even begin to count all the times that I have tried with others only to realize later that they were never meant to try hard with me in the first place. I have always known that I was worth fighting for, but others just wanted to take advantage of me for their own personal gains.

Pick the Person Who Will Break Your heart [Vocal.media]
Pick the Person Who Will Break Your heart! Picking the person you think will break your heart is likewise the person who will cause you to feel the most, and feeling profoundly is a gift.

The Importance of Inspiration
When the majority of people reference inspiration, they are likely referring to when an artist or creative person is inspired. There are two types of inspiration- internal and external.

Listening to the Rain
"The sound of rain needs no translation." I love rainy days, and being from California they are few and far between. I try to take advantage of them when I can, as a way to just unwind. Hearing the rain hit the roof, and water rushing through the gutters reminds me of being a kid. It brings me back to all the times I spent at my grandmas and listening to the rain hit the tin roof of her trailer, and something about that is just so comforting. Her 81st birthday would have been yesterday December 11th, and this year her birthday has been particularly hard on me. So in a way I feel like she is here with me in spirit.
