Rewrite My Life
I've often wondered what it would have been like, to be born into a different life, different family. Unfortunately for some, we have to play the cards we've been dealt, right?

Forever Our Children
Children are our future, our legacy in which we shape with our words, actions, example and presence. It is not an easy job for any parent trying to do the best we can for them and there seems to be no one way or guide book to how we should do these things—if there were I could imagine it being only slightly easier to understand than a Ikea manual.

Motherhood
Motherhood, really not what one imagines based on the movies you watch growing up. In reality there is no Maria (Sound of Music) or Nanny McPhee. Raising children isn't easy no matter if your in a relationship or your a single parent doing it all on your own. Although there are several books on what to do and how to do just about everything in real life its a learn as you go type of job that you get no vacation time from you are on call 24 hours a day 7 days a week 365 days a year. I come from a place were even though I was married I still did everything alone or with the help pf my mother. At the age of 26 I found myself divorced with 4 children all under the age of 10 working a full-time job, a part-time job and trying to balance the most important job of full time mom. I couldn't have done without the help of my Mom. So no matter how old your children get parenting doesn't end when they turn 18. The pay is sweet though when your children actually thank you for the hard work you do pay comes in the form of hugs, kisses and thank yous .... Sometimes.

How a Little Rescue Cat Changed My Life
"Aww, look...this one is called Breadbun...what a brilliant name for a cat," I squealed, reading the adoption pages of a local cat and dog shelter.

Securing Your Future's Future
When I started becoming a dad, I immediately thought about my kid's future. Coming from an immigrant family, our parents barely saved up for themselves and had some little savings for us. One good thing my parents taught me is, while we are young, save up for our family to secure comfort and stability when we get old. That involves our future kids. It's that one thing you can do for your kid that you can control. Only you can make it happen if you want it to happen. Parents do what they can for their kids, and with this digital age upon us, there are ways to achieve that.

Indulge a Little
Who doesn't love a spa day? But let's be honest, a full day of pampering can drain your wallet just as quickly as a trip to Macy's and since you're in public you have to look cute before and after right? So what's the solution, an at home DIY spa day. You could even get your best girlfriends together and throw a PJs and pampering party, but I'd probably narrow down the steps if there are more than three people.

Best Animal Documentaries on Netflix
As humans, we are basically animals—we're just a more intelligent form. And while all humans are living on the same planet, we're also living with other animals. From reptiles, mammals, birds, fish, and many more, our beautiful animal neighbors certainly bring life and make the planet so much more colorful. While some of us are terrified of certain animals, we still have to appreciate each and every single one of them, because they definitely benefit the planet. You may not think an alligator has any benefits, but it does... actually, probably not.

The Shocking Messages We Are Sending Our Children
It recently came to my attention that the number of children’s books containing female protagonists is alarmingly low. My mother sent me a video with some disturbing statistics about the lack of female role models in children’s literature, urging me to start writing children’s books. We know that stereotypes develop early-on. Socialisation as children is a huge part of determining how men and women will be treated as adults. Therefore, it is shocking to see how men and women are portrayed and how young boys and girls are being socialised into seeing these grossly unfair stereotypes as normal.
