Self help, because you are your greatest asset.
Feelings And Emotions
Feelings are such a big part of us having a human experience. They seem to arise and dissipate constantly and in its diversity colouring our everyday lives like the colours of the rainbow. One of my greatest recent insights was about how conditioned we are to suppress any negative feelings. Although sometimes, for example if they "don't fit" into our current structure of life, we might suppress even positive feelings such as love and affection. But it's mainly the negative ones, which are suppressed so quickly that we don't even notice that we do it.

How to Live Before You Die
I saw a post on Tumblr (damn, you know you’re in for a treat now). Actually, a post on Tumblr saw me. Saw right into me, pressed its face up against the finger-smudged glass window straight into my soul and beckoned me over. It was a post that described somebody’s view about their impact on this world:

Gemini Season: Approaching the Summer Solstice
Despite the recent curveball life has thrown your way, this Gemini season is all about planting your heels firmly in the earth and grounding yourself in a place that feels a little more like home. Re-examining the familiar is a good way to get back in touch with the forgotten wisdom that has guided you through earlier stages of your life, but make sure that you’re not returning to old ways of being which no longer serve you. “Out with the old, in with the new” doesn’t have to mean you let go of everything you once saw value in. Don’t throw the baby out with the bath water!

How I found myself.
The truth about finding oneself can only be discovered by the person in question. This article might seem like the previous one posted but really it is very different from how to be yourself. They are two different keys and important aspects of every individual, you need to discover the two in other to live your best life. You are free to arrange them as you so wish, either this first: "How i found myself", or "How to be yourself" second, trust me you will do very well no matter how you choose to arrange them.

Learning is loving
I have been waiting a long time to make this post cause I have not had quite the right words. Anyone that knows me gets what that means for me. Words typically come easy for me. Sometimes however, with the really hard things, I have to wait for the words to flow from my mind in the right way. So here it is. I sat silent for most of last year. You can judge me for that if you want. But my year(2020) was spent watching my Mother slowly leave this earth, in the midst of a pandemic that, at that time, no one knew much about. The fear was still so palpable. Then mourning the silence she left us with in her absence. I had to choose my battle at that time. I had to choose where my fleeting energy went. I chose to be by my Mother's side, in a protected bubble necessitated by a pandemic that no one wanted But I watched, listened, heard. So much happened last year that hurt my heart further and it was just too much for me to deal with on top of my family's loss. But I'm here now, with the words finally in my heart. I want my position to be very clear. You want to know why it seems that all of the topics that make people so uncomfortable are so loud right now? Why does it seem like someone in the LGBTQIA community comes out every day? Why does it seem like people in any minority race speak on their experience so often? Why are people being so loud on such sensitive subjects? You wanna know? Cause they can! That's right. Gay, bi, trans, race..... They are speaking because they can. Because they should. All of these things have been here from the beginning of time, but now every story, every tear, every death, every triumph has paved the way for people to be treated equally and fairly. To be treated like the beautiful humans they are. We now live in an age where it is more acceptable than ever to speak your truth. Speak they should. But it is still hard for our brothers and sisters. It's hard because people hurt, people judge, people bully and criticize. But I like to think, or dream maybe, that those negative and judgemental people are now in the minority. Or at least quickly heading that way. There is a shift happening...an awakening. If you can't feel it, keep learning until you do. Our job here is real simple. Love. Learn!!! Get out of your shell and learn something new about people. Love cause it feels better than judgement. Love in color and not just in black and white. Expanding our minds and our hearts is beautiful and strengthens our world. I will personally take love any which way I can get it. The world needs far more of it. To those that are scared to speak, know that there are those willing to be at your side. We need more people willing to stand up against hate, against violence towards another human. Every voice has power. A united voice has greater power. Some people may think that I am only speaking up now because my child is both mixed race and gay, that it gives me reason to just now vocalize my feelings. That's only partly true. My journey towards learning to truly love and accept came long before my girl came out to me. I was already on a path to dissect the things that I held as truth my whole life. Examining what I thought I believed and realigning them so that my truth actually resonated with my soul. I'm still doing that, to be honest. What an incredible journey that is! Enlightening, refreshing, testimony expanding, beautiful. To any one in the LGBTQIA community, to anyone in an ethnic group.....I am a safe space. I'm here for you. I will stand up for you. I love you.

How to be yourself.
It will interest you to know that the world is not served by you playing small or trying to clone yourself into behaving or performing like other people. It has therefore been a necessity for you to be yourself no matter what. No one has ever sustained success masking who they are, you might enjoy the ride for long but it always does not last long, so why go through the stress of hiding under someone else's clothing. Originality and genuineness are what the world craves for and you can be that best version of yourself the world is waiting to see and experience.

What Are “Off Days” and Why Do We Have Them?. Top Story - May 2021.
Off days. Bad days. Poor-performance days. Write-off-days (the extended version). There’s a number of aliases for this little butthole. But regardless of it’s name or what time it shows up at the front door that morning, we’ve all encountered it. We’ve all greeted it, groggily-eyed and miserable, an uninvited visitor who makes himself at home, anyway.

For the Love of Pink!
For the Love of Pink! by Constance Hart Ohhh... glorious cottony-soft hug of self-acceptance wherein all is instantly made okay, and one is allowed exactly as is and wants to be. Sweetened with compassion sauce and sprinkled with glitter flakes of nonjudgmental understanding, a tasty treat of pink is enough to flow another day among the rest.
