• The meet cute story of how I met my husband

  

  “Do you think the universe fights for souls to be together? Some things are too strange and strong to be coincidences.” Emery Allen They say that life is a sum of all your choices. I believe that sometimes, choice and destiny cross each other, and a new story begins at that intersection. That fateful crossing…

• Tattoos and sundresses

  

  I did something very out of character the other day. Something completely unlike me. I got tattooed for the first time. Getting the tattoos wasn’t the part that was out of character. I’ve been wanting to get one for a while now, and in light of my upcoming 40th birthday, I planned on getting it…

  I was not having a good day. I had a heavy feeling of worry, anxiety and overwhelm in my heart for the past weeks, but especially that day, it felt the heaviest. I am getting better at accepting bad days. The previous version of myself would have utterly resisted them. I used to feel guilty…
