I am thankful for the loves that haven’t engrained their mark in my heart and the ones that did. IContinueContinue reading “Thankful for the Day”
Top of the Bucket List: Pick up some Instruments
I think it is important to have goals in life. Outside of a good job, a strong family, and becoming debt free. We often forget about the small things in life. We forget the simple enjoyable things that add variety to everyday life. We stop reading, we stop writing, we fall into passive activities andContinueContinue reading “Top of the Bucket List: Pick up some Instruments”
Healing Journey
Ever since my grandmother’s homecoming, I’ve been trying to put myself outside of my comfort zone. I’ve traveled to LA, Philly, Chicago, Nashville and most recently, Atlanta, in the search of self. These traveling experiences have been so vital to my personal growth that a part of me wishes I would have taken these tripsContinueContinue reading “Healing Journey”
Today’s Post: Coexistence with God
Today, I wanted to write about something very personal to me. Yet, it’s very opinionated so I decided to put it on my second home, The Classroom. Just like academia is a home for liberal thought*, The Classroom is where I talk about all things culture, art, music, philosophy, religion, relationships, and random musings. It’sContinueContinue reading “Today’s Post: Coexistence with God”
Coexistence with God
A story as old as time. Commonly debated and fought over to the point of exhaustion.

[reads newspaper]ContinueContinue reading “Coexistence with God”

The Constant Struggle
It’s amazing how many times we make goals in our lives that never end up fulfilled. For years, I end up repeating the same routine over and over. Every year, I promise to drink more water, pray more, read my bible, write more, read more, exercise more, and procrastinate less. While, I have had moreContinueContinue reading “The Constant Struggle”
