Have you ever felt like you finally reached the end of yourself? That there was nothing worth waking up the next morning for? That nothing good could possibly come out of you or the situation that you are in? That maybe the world might just be a better place without you in it? If you […] Read more…
“Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me.” …and there goes one of the most popular and well-known lies of all time. The truth is no matter how much we pretend that words don’t hurt, no matter how hard we try to forget words that people spoke against us, no […] Read more…
I’m not going to lie. When I saw the clouds filling the sky on the day I planned to go skydiving I had this happy little feeling inside and I thought to myself “maybe, just maybe… they’ll cancel our jump because of the weather”. I know, I know, I’m such a brave soul. 😉 That […] Read more…
