Just Live

Can we ever just live? Why is it so many people feed off of:
1. doing things behind others backs
2. tearing others down because of jealousy
3. competition
4. evil craving to be "top dog"
5. not being happy for other's success
Seriously, the list goes on. What is it to "just live" any way?
1. finding joy or positivity despite "negative" circumstances
2. being happy for other's success
3. the desire to try your best to be successful instead of knocking others down to get there
4. Be positively aware of others, not negatively aware
5. be kind, be friendly, be joyful, be peaceful...
Take a look around and BE thankful for the life you have. If you're still not happy, do something about it that doesn't involve maleficent intentions.

I have really not had any drama in my life because I refuse to feed on it. Instead, I feed off of positivity. Frankly, it's not worth my time to plot against those who starve without a stimulus of negativity upon an individual.

I've been called names (slut, bitch, psychotic) before - what did I do about it? Nothing. If someone has the audacity to say such words, Im not going to feed into it. You can ask anyone in my life right now if they think I am any of those things and not one would hesitate before saying I'm not. Instead, I moved on, forgot about it and continue to surround myself with uplifting influences.

Making friends is probably the biggest challenge in my life. Honestly, I don't know what it is to have a "friend circle." What do people my age even talk about anyway? Working at a vintage shop with customers who are generally my mom's age or older doesn't allow for much of a social life outside of that age group. Working at this shop though is what got me to writing this post. Grown women in this "vintage world" FEED off of DRAMA!!!! It is appalling to me. Ladies, this isn't high school anymore, you don't need to be deceitful, you don't need to put others down, you don't need to start rumors or lies. GROW UP.

Curve Ball

Back in July, life threw a curveball and I wound up pregnant, quite surprisingly, again. You know when society (and the box it comes in) says the morning after pill works as long as you take it within 72 hours? Well, I took it 12 hours later and it didn’t work. I thought I was being responsible for preventing pregnancy and it turns out life had other plans, and that’s okay. But those of you who would implode if they got pregnant, NEVER use plan B/ the morning after pill. I did some research and found if you ovulate within that window before you take the pill, it essentially becomes ineffective if there are some strong swimmers in there. So $40 later that tiny little thing was pointless. I was about 4 weeks along the process when I figured out what was happening. My period was late, which it had been for the last 5 months due to stress I presume, but something inside me said it wasn’t just a late period. I had an old test lying around. It was about 6am and I decided to take it before my

Side Effects From The Pill

Just a heads up, this post is going to be personal... And this photo accurately sums up how I feel about the pill.  I started taking the pill around 16 years old to regulate my periods. Since then, I have taken it on and off for the last 6 years. Each time, it has had a pretty negative impact. They tell you it takes 3 months to adjust and though this might be true, I am 100% certain some of us will never adjust, take myself for example, after being on the pill for 7 months this go around.  "Are you taking it at the same time every day?" YES. I have an alarm set. Now that that is answered, lets move along.  Here are some side effects I experienced from taking the pill and how they have changed in the 3 weeks I have been off of it.  1. Extreme depression, mood swings, lots of crying. I had days where I literally did not want to live. All I could do was sit on the couch and hate my life, wanting to end it. This might sound extreme but every bit is true. Si

To The Person Who Stole My Phone...

To the person who stole my phone: That little girl on the screensaver is my daughter, she’s two and a half. I work from home, a majority from my phone so I can raise her myself and not send her to daycare. I wake up early and work before she wakes up, I work during her naps and after she goes to sleep at night. I don’t have a college education. I don’t have a fancy car and I have the cheapest line of cell phone service from Walmart.  When you took my phone I lost photos of my daughter and important notes. I lost client information, phone numbers and photo content. What you gave me? Optimism. It could have been worse. You could have stolen my laptop, which has missing keys from my daughter picking them off. You could have stolen my car, which would prevent me from driving to the post office and UPS nearly every day for one of my clients.  Believe me, I know life can be hard and frankly I am sorry that yours has gotten to the point where you have to steal someone's phone.
