a safe place for my creative self-expression.

gluten makes me crazy
I always think it won’t be a big deal in the moment I eat it. BUT IT IS.

Arizona travels
I’ll always cherish these memories of my time spent exploring the desert. It certainly hasn’t been dull.

putting out fires
If everything in my life is a reflection of me, how many fires do I put out in my relationships, in situations, and in the world, that nobody can ever see?

“Don’t you know? You don’t lose when you die. You are celebrated for how long you played the game!”

And here now this dead hummingbird was laying in my hands, a symbol of death and rebirth. A symbol of unbearable pain followed by complete peace. My heart was full, knowing the synchronicities and why everything happens the way it does in life from a spiritual point of view.

Fear, where did you go?
Last night was the first time in a very long time I intentionally turned my lamp off before I went to sleep.


on to bigger things
So here’s on to the next chapter in my life. I’m so SO excited for what’s in store. I feel the skin shedding, and I am like a beautiful, fierce, feminine snake, rebirthed and ready to slither on a new journey. Don’t cross my path or I will eat you. Or, you know, maybe I’ll keep you around if you charm me.

Becoming Miss Honey
Ironically, growing up, Matilda was always one of my favorite movies, and I used to watch it over and over again.

if it’s not fun, guess i’m not gonna do it
God, what an infuriating, fun-filled day. A day to remind me EXACTLY what it’s like being a Pisces.

enter the static & silence
Between the high pitched fuzz of the energetic atmosphere, and the lull of sitting in a place I’ve never been before, enters this weird essence of knowing that I am exactly where I am supposed to be.

The best thing about my birthday trip was that I was with people who make me feel like I’m home. I think if you live around people for long periods of time, you feel comforted by their energy.

what pisces season is like for a triple pisces
sitting down with friends to watch a movie with Tom Hanks, to which I exclaim, “hey! you guys, I just had a dream last night that Tom Hanks died!” To which they reply, “well I hope you didn’t just spoil the ending of the movie,” coming to find that I did, in fact, spoil the ending of the movie.

What people should first understand about me, always, is that I am most definitely and positivitively an enneagram type 4. I am the romantic. Without a doubt. Fitting to talk about this close to Valentine’s Day. If I had a Valentine, I would spoil them. It’s just how my brain works.

i believe in love
I didn’t, for many years. I looked around at people claiming to have it and I scoffed at them, in my logical brain, thinking that if they were actually in love, they would treat each other better.

I seemingly stumbled into you one day, not knowing that you would be someone who would change my life forever.
