So for a few weeks now i have been contemplating creating my own blog space. alas, here it is. Not that i think many people will read it, but merely because i am intrigued with the whole concept and find it a great way to "get things off my chest". i cannot promise i will be very good at updating this here blog, or if it will be something that anyone will even want to read. But it will be my thoughts, my feelings, my general ramblings on life. Those that know me well are probably thinking:

"I'm surprised it took her this
long to find a space to ramble on and on...!"

however it has taken me so long because i had to leave my thoughts of writings = college and papers behind. For 7 years writing, meant papers. it meant writing about what someone else deemed important. and yes, those topics were (and still are) important however they were very rarely my passion. ugh. how many pages must i have written over the years? we'll just say a lot. for now i am going to thoroughly enjoy writing about what i feel is pertinent; things i am passionate about. woman's rights, music, [stopping] youth violence, equality and diversity, and whatever else pops into my mind. i am excited to begin writing my own thoughts and hopefully you will get something out of what i have to say.

i already have the topic for my next blog:

jobs: what i had, what i have, what i want

it's been far too long

wow. i hadn't realized how long it had been since i have posted anything on my blog....too long. as most bloggers do, i tend to use this space as my "external journal" if you will and i didn't realize how much i had missed it until i thought about all the stuff i could write about.  i guess that means i have some catching up to do then. hehe. well let's start with this: Police: Gunfire exchanged between vehicles near Brockton playground - Brockton, MA - The Enterprise yuck. i don't like this one bit. it happened across the street from me. literally . the address the shell casings were found at is directly across the street. while i do not like this most recent shooting it does not make me feel unsafe in my neighborhood. perhaps i should be since it happened while it was still light out but i know that these shootings are targeted.  not that innocent people don't get hurt sometimes, yet is that a reason to live in fear? similar to my last posting i think ...

Gratitude

Did you know that Stress has implications on our physical health?! I know crazy. Every Monday I get these emails from the HR department at work with tips on how to destress and sometimes they really resonate with me; well today was one of those days. Today, the reminder was to show gratitude for what we do have which, I realize, for some of us that might be easier than for others. But, what if, even when it seems impossible or really, really hard we push through the negative and focus on just one thing that we can show gratitude for? That doesn't necessarily mean that we are happy or that everything (or even anything!) will change. It means that we can be grateful for one thing...even if it does not shift our immediate mood or make us feel good. We live in a society that encourages us to live life based on our feelings so I realize I'm pushing against the very grain of society and that this might be uncomfortable for people. But stay with me. There's so much research on the...

We Begin Again

It's literally been years since I updated this blog. Wow. Not that I have a following or anything, but really I enjoy writing out my thoughts - it helps spark my creativity, my love of thinking, and, well, no one can interrupt my words. 😏 So, I thought it was about time to put pen to paper (well, fingers to keys to be more literal) and get this thing up and going again. What better time to restart this thing than during a lockdown, right?! Plus, my mom actually reminded me about it cause, truth be told, I probably wouldn't have thought about it otherwise (thanks, mom). In trying to narrow down what I wanted to write about (that's really the hardest part for me is just picking a topic!) I decided I needed to just start with a title. Well, when I finally did, that's when all the thoughts started coming to me. I was really trying to figure out how to re-introduce my blog to you all so I figured "We Begin Again" was a decent title, but after I wrote it, I start...
