Journal Prompt of the Week: What seeds are you hoping to plant in yourself this spring?
http://dailypost.wordpress.com/category/daily-prompts/ I work in the customer service industry (cough cough) so I have a lot to say about the topic of service, mostly that it’s been lost in the shuffle of our self important, busy lives. I won’t share any particular good or bad experiences here but I will say that bad or lackluster service…
http://dailypost.wordpress.com/2013/09/18/daily-prompt-public/ Are you comfortable in front of people, or does the idea of public speaking make you want to hide in the bathroom? Why?

I stumbled across this book by chance really, one of the amazing women I follow on Twitter said it was going to be the next book read and discussed for our Twitter Book Club. As always, I’ll never turn down a book with the promise of discussion after so I bought it for my Nook…

Tonight, I’m looking forward to going home; the place where my heart breathes. I will walk in and take deep breaths in every room so I can feel the nostalgia in the my bones. I will touch doors and chairs and enter rooms for the sake of touching and seeing what should be there. Every…
I’m reading to cope, trying to find comfort in the books I read over and over. One quote I’ve been reading over and over again from one of my favorite authors: She says nothing at all, but simply stares upward into the dark sky and watches, with sad eyes, the slow dance of the infinite…

Her kiss was the flavor of sin that tempted the light to fallBrown eyes devoid of liesShe beckons out of the darknessMirroring your true desires Staccato heart beat drumming in your earsTo see her is to pay reverence;Head bowedOn your kneesThe void in her absence amplified by the wholeness in her loveDeath was built to…
I start my new years resolution on my birthday, December 29th of every year. Usually, I take that day to reflect on my life and how far I’ve come in 365 days and start to set goals for the upcoming year. A few days before Christmas I got some disheartening news about my Grandmother who…
It sucks. *throws tissue* I’ve been sick for a bit over a week and I’m at the stage where my nose is raw, eyes are swollen and running and my chest feels like it’s caving in on itself. I haven’t worked a full day in a week and I’m quite frustrated and depressed since I…
Her name means joy, I try to keep that in mind every year as I remember her on the day that she passed. The day rushes back to me vividly and suddenly I am 12 and I’m rushing home from school because my Grandmother called the Principal and my teachers and told them I needed…

OMG. Did you have Xanga? I’ve been blogging for a long time, it started years ago with Xanga. I was so excited to find a social networking site that wasn’t about meeting boys/girls. It really was about people wanting to express themselves. For me, it was freedom. At the time I got a Xanga account,…
