I’ve always had a fondness for day dreaming, I think it’s quite vital to life. When we day dream, our minds gain the freedom to wander down mental lanes that we might not normally visit. We might think about creating something – a dress, painting, play, something that we have yet to try. We might …

Un-balanced
Adult life is a serious of balancing acts. We add metaphoric plates to our show aiming to impress everyone watching. We balance plates of work, life, relationships, hobbies, goals, etc. all on just two hands in a baffling array. We like to tell ourselves that it is possible, that one can maintain all these things …
What’s holding us back?
Life comes with struggles, that is apparent. These struggles can stack up against us bringing us down and making progress a list for tomorrow filling today with distractions. Most of us have been there to confirm this. For more evidence, just go through the achieves of this blog. I personally like to think myself an …
Should you be bored?
I recently heard the phrase that “humans need boredom.” This did not seem right to me. We currently live in an age of endless entertainment, why not use it?! Now when we watch TV, we can pick precisely what we want to watch as opposed to having to flick through the few channels available looking …
Nights
There’s no telling how a night will go. Sometimes the sleep doesn’t come because of the excitement tomorrow brings. Sometimes it’s the anxiety and worries of what could happen.

Freedom from thoughts
I sometimes am very jealous of those that think rationally. Thinking in my creative, confusing way leads to some interesting ideas, stories, and general interesting conversation starters (what would happen if we brought back trial by combat??). Though with my mind being what it is, I often find myself to be my biggest critic. My …
Over Thinking
I like my creative brain, I really do. I love how stories come out of the ether. Mundane situations quickly transform into characters or scenes for me, inspiring new ideas for a story. This leads me to wondering about all sorts of out comes to seemingly typical situations. For example, seeing a man at the …
Wellness
I used to not like this word, mainly because I associated it with too many commercials about how we need to invest in these pills or vitamins or $120 work out attire. Wellness was just a marketing term I would scoff at while spoon deep into some chocolate ice cream. I thought that as long …
Driving
I like the escape that driving brings. Windows down with a relaxing song in the background brings me to a deep sigh and smile. If it’s at night, I often play Bon Iver or Novo Amor and find my wind wandering through various windows out-looking my life. I go back to times where I should …
