What Is Your Soul Mission?
In our daily lives, we sometimes feel despaired; we lose hope and faith when things do not go right. We forget how to respond to our inner intuition. Realizing your nature as an eternal, infinite, and integral soul holds many gifts for you to explore and offer to the world. Your inner intuition and inner voice guide you through life and answers many of your questions, listen to it and trust yourself to follow your greatest joys. This does not mean that you have to forget your role as a parent, family member, friend, church member, etc. To find out what your inner soul purpose is, start with what you do when you wake up in the morning and aside from each activity, make a check mark as to whether or not it makes you a happier, healthier, better version of you or not. This step is all about awareness, not judgment, or even action. Be honest with yourself; don't hold back any feelings or judge yourself. Once you have completed this task, you will have a better understanding of what your soul purposes are.

The Truth About My Vitiligo
I wanted to write something a bit more personal. One thing I've grown to dislike about social media, which I have found myself doing as well, is almost creating a smoke screen between myself and the realm of the internet, because I was scared to be vulnerable. I realised that although I was putting myself out there I wasn't really connecting with anyone. I don't really like that so I want to re-define my presence on the gram and everywhere else where I reside on the internet. And I'm starting with this blog.

Let’s Talk About Summer
It’s the middle of the summer and, regardless of your age, if you’re not working, taking summer classes, or going to summer camp (in case you’re 12 or younger), it can get very overwhelming. Don’t get me wrong, summer is great; you get to sleep in, rest, hang out, and do all the stuff you couldn’t do before because of either the weather or because you just didn’t have time.

The Dust of Our Bones: Pt. 1
It’s on his birthday that I see her: a small comma of a woman, providing a pause in the long run-on sentence of my life. There’s a way about her. A way that makes you feel like you’re good where you are; makes you feel like you’re not the odd-one-out you always thought you were.

Your Journey is Your Purpose
"Life works in mysterious ways." Ever heard that before? How about "God works in mysterious ways?" I have. In fact, I still hear it and even see it on inspirational memes on social media. When I was younger, I didn't know or even care what that meant because I was too busy living in the moment and not paying attention to what the universe was putting in my lap.

Good to Great
I've always been a dreamer. I've always had things I've wanted to do, places I've wanted to go, dreams of useless talents that could take me places; whether stupid, small, or secretly large. I've always had this urge... a—desire, I suppose you could say—to be known. Heard. Maybe it's my huge ego, but I want that for the best of reasons, I swear. And I hate that I want it because I should be humble and shit but I'm not. I want to be known for something. I want to die knowing that I was really good—no, scratch that—G R E A T at something. All my life, I've never had something that I'm really great at. I've been late to everything.

Growing Pains
I think we’ve all been a little terrified of growing up too fast. There is a mindless beauty to ignorance. Not knowing everything, asking questions, endless curiosity, all of what drives us towards the unknown with no fear of getting hurt. I miss that. Not thinking twice or second-guessing, just...going. But to our dismay, regardless of if we want it or not, we all grow old, we all learn the hard way.

The Cure for Loneliness
What is loneliness exactly? We all seem to experience this feeling, but how many of us really understand it? I've felt lonely enough throughout my own life that it's given me plenty of time to examine it, to experiment with it, and to eventually overcome it.
