Open your eyes and realize, you are where you’re meant to be. Embrace the flaws in reality, the twist and turns you would have designed differently if you knew they’d provide the scenery for your story, they’re as much a part of you as they are part of who you were. Taste the crumbs that…
Language is unifying. Whether you believe it or not, language is what allows us to connect and build bonds with people sprinkled through the world.

It’s been a little bit over a month, a month since I took a 30-hour trip across the world to live on a speck on a map. Joining the Peace Corps was always high on my bucket list. It was an idea I flirted with for a while until finally senior year of college, I…
Hey! It’s been a while. Earlier this year, I said that 2015 was going to be the year of doing. The year in which I was going to stop making plans, over thinking and making a list of excuses why tomorrow sounds better and believe the one reason why today is just right– it’s a new…

It’s that time of year again–The Holiday Rush. When malls and shops are jam packed with last minute shoppers hunting for the perfect gift. When it comes to the holiday season, it seems as if everyone gets so caught up in what they’re going to get or give, they forget the point of the holidays…

We tend to make ourselves the exception to the rule. We justify our reasoning and logic and believe ourselves to be right although we know in a corner of our minds that we’re not. We argue that when we’re speeding, it’s because everyone else is going too slow and we have somewhere we just have…
