There are a lot of journeys that we go on in life. Some of them are road trips with friends, some of them are family vacations that are so terrible they’re hilarious, and some of them are solo trips that we take to prove something to ourselves. Yes, life is full of journeys and adventures…
Honey & Salt
Life is made up of moments that are honey-sweet, and others that bite like salt in a wound. Both are important and both have beauty to be found within them. These are those moments. The ones that make you smile and the ones that make you grateful for what you’ve survived.
Waiting for the Thaw
Spring. The season of hope realised, when the hard winter months fade away and you can see the promise of new life come to fruition. Trees begin to bud and blossom, grass grows green, and baby animals frolic in fields. It’s the season when we begin to feel ourselves come alive again. When we can…
I Didn’t Expect This
Expectations, life is filled with them. Sometimes we create them for ourselves, and sometimes society creates them for us.
