Be the Right Tool

It takes time to cut into the heart. Each stroke of the tool used, whether it be a scalpel or words, it leaves a mark. The deeper the cut,

Less Is A Lot Better

Sometimes it's hard striking a balance between a friendship and other types of relationships. I've come to accept that I just can't be your friend. In my head I hear, 'but we're so good together' or 'maybe it can be different' but the truth of the matter is that simply isn't true.

Back to Your Corners! Or Not…

It’s amazing how quickly we sink into our defensive positions even after overcoming such difficult circumstances. These very powerful hurricanes which dealt us as a nation a one-two punch in both Texas and Florida brought out the true human side of us. It was mostly an eerily beautiful thing to witness, but it wasn’t without … Continue reading Back to Your Corners! Or Not…
