The benefits of book reading: An analysis
The common perception of a book A book is usually regarded as a source of information, knowledge, entertainment and communication for the reader.

Chapter 2020
RIP to the things we loved and lost in 2020. In this era of it's okay to not be okay, I want to take a moment to ackowledge the things that dramatically and drastically changed in our lives as a result of this pandemic. The crazy unique thing about this situation is that no matter what your stance is on the pandemic itself, everyone can agree that we were all changed by it in some capacity. Things about the world after this year will never be the same. Our life stories have reached a pivotal point where every character can now share a trauma bond over the whip lash that was the start of this new decade. But you know what? Great stories come out of tales of resilience and we are all characters in our own life stories. Welcome to this chapter, strap yourself in, because this isn't going to be the kind of story that goes something like..

Stop Judging Me for Being Creative
My entire life I have always known I was different from the rest of my family. I grew up in a household of 6 people: my grandparents, my aunt and uncle, my younger cousin, and me. I can remember knowing I was different than the rest of the members of my household as early as 6 years old, which it became more and more apparent when I was in my pre-teen and young teen years. Especially when I started experimenting with makeup.

Another Night
I wouldn’t have called the shift in my gait climbing the stairs ‘staggering’ at this point. Not yet. It was still more like a saunter; the fluid movement only daring to slip from my control ever so slightly and still stemming primarily from my hips.

People with these ideas can easily get frustrated, please don’t do this
Self-denial The first mode of thinking is called self-denial. Depressed people are good at denying their own positive emotions and positive behaviors; on the contrary, they are particularly "tolerant" to their negative emotions and negative behaviors.

Why is it so hard to say no
Do you have a hard time saying No to people? Do you agree to things and then find yourself resenting the fact that you did? If so...let me just say you are not alone. Is this a good habit though? Saying yes to things or agreeing to things when you really want to say no? You already know the answer – it is not healthy at all, but still we do it all the time. We place the satisfaction of others in front of our own. I don’t know how many sleepless nights I have been through where I keep arguing with myself over the fact that I have a hard time saying no to people, just to keep the peace or as to not start arguments. I have come to the conclusion that it is time to stop; sometimes we just have to put ourselves first.

There Is No Shame In Falling... The Shame Is In Staying There
This advice has helped me through some very dark days. After I lost my mother, my family, and the man I was to marry, I seemed to spiral in a downward direction and encountered many losses in my life both personally and financially. I kept hearing these words as I fell and tried to pull myself out of the pit I felt trapped in.
