How often do you say “no” to things that would interfere with your goals? I believe saying no is a way of respecting your values and boundaries. A lot of people think saying no is mean, and they don’t want to come across that way. But I’ve learned that if you don’t learn to sayContinueContinue reading

What is your favorite type of weather? My favorite kind of weather is when it’s right in between cool but not too cold, and not overly sunny. It feels calm and relaxing, perfect for just sitting outside and enjoying the moment. I also like when it’s warm, but not too hot just a gentle heatContinueContinue reading

Dating

It’s been a while since I’ve talked about dating. Lately, I’ve honestly been the happiest I’ve been in a long time working, reading my Bible, and truly focusing on myself.
