The Skin Care That Healed My Decade of Acne and Acne Scars
I found a skin care routine that helped my acne and acne scars. And it takes less than 3 minutes in the morning and at night.
Journaling: My Personal Growth Tool
A few years ago, friends of mine recommended journaling to me, but other than writing down some points I found in my Bible reading, I wasn't about it -- I didn't really see the use. Today, I'm going to take their role and highly recommend journaling, REAL JOURNALING....
Dealing with Comparison
Honestly, as I’m typing out this blog on comparison, I’m comparing myself. I’m not as talented as this person, I don’t have a platform like this person, I’m not as good looking as this person, I’m not as creative as this person, I’m not as bubbly, not as outgoing, not...

Valley Seasons
I started a blog because I wanted a public place to share my opinion, but for much of this year, I’ve kept many of my thoughts and opinions to myself. In life there are mountains and there are valleys. I’ve learned, yet again, recently, that valleys can be amazing for...
