You Go Where You Look

I have to apologize for my absence from the blogging world. Thankfully, there is good reason for it, as I am no longer unemployed! After several months of searching for an answer, I finally feel like I’m going somewhere. But I’ll get to all that. I’ve been at this job for a few months now. […]

When the Universe Says NO

I try to be the kind of person who looks on the bright side of difficult situations. The current difficult situation in my life being unemployment, and the bright side of unemployment being having tons of free time! With all of this free time (almost 3 months now), you think I would have written several […]

Life or Death

Today you have the choice of life, to seek goodness—to be goodness. What you eat, what you do, what you say and think become you. Today you have the choice to face your problems head on, grow from them, prove your strength and evolve.   Each day you live, you may also choose death. You […]

The Relative Nature of Absolutes

Whether or not you are religious, there is a spiritual sense that you get by looking at the stars. The sense that there is so much more out there than meets the eye. The humbling realization that we know so little about the Universe that we are a part of, and even the planet we […]

Sweet tooth -n  -A fondness or craving for sweets – Strong liking for sweet foods -The reason why alongside my super-healthy recipe board on Pinterest, I keep a separate folder hidden in my bookmarks for more naughty recipes with titles like ‘peanut butter chocolate chip cookie bites’, ‘red velvet cheesecake brownies’, or ‘salted caramel cupcakes’.

Roller-coasting Through Life

There I was, sitting in the passenger seat of our car for 6 long hours as we drove towards our destination. With each mile past, I was that much closer to a reality that I had tried not to think about for years. Maybe I thought that by avoiding thinking about it, I could somehow […]

To Cut or Not to Cut

I’m sorry, readers. I have nothing to offer you at the moment. No words of wisdom, or stories of personal revelation. No thought provoking enigmas or tales of triumph. With this post, I’m hoping you might have something to offer me. I need advice! The blogging gods have not been speaking to me lately. I […]

We Are Expansion

We are born out of everything, Created by the light Pure expansion locked in body Vulnerably in sight   We soon learn we are separate We stand alone to shine So begins the lesson Of I, Me and Mine   We are told who we are And we accept the suggestion While forgetting our true […]

My Greatest Teacher

A few weeks ago, my parents made the long trip across the border to come visit me. In preparation for the visit, I made sure the house was clean, the fridge was stocked, but most importantly I made sure that our knives were sharpened. The true marxman that my Dad is, he loves knives, and […]

What’s your Personal Legend?

“Everything in life is an omen,” said the Englishman…“There is a universal language, understood by everybody, but already forgotten. I am in search of that universal language, among other things. That’s why I’m here. I have to find a man who knows that universal language. An alchemist.” I have recently finished reading The Alchemist by […]

Everything in Moderation, except Poison

There is a ton of information out there that will tell you that aspartame is safe. There is also a ton of information that will tell you it isn’t. The peer-reviewed research is about as split as public opinion (not so surprisingly, the industry-funded research says its safe, and the independent research says its not, […]

Birds of a Feather hate Each Other

I have to admit that I spent much of my school years feeling really lonely. Though I had a few close friends here and there, I had a really hard time making new friends. Okay, that’s an understatement. For about an eight-year span, I didn’t make any friends at all. Part of this was because […]

Dear Diet

Dear Diet, I’m writing this letter to let you know that I am leaving you forever. We’ve been together on and off for years, and, let’s face it; things haven’t been good. When I met you, I was hopeful that you would be the one to make me happy, but it wasn’t long until things […]

My Kind of Mother

It is my belief that before we come into the world, we choose our parents. The ones that we choose may not always say the right thing, or do the right thing–they may not be perfect–but we choose them still, because they are the only ones who can help us understand much of what we […]

Introverts Anonymous

My name is Sarah, and I am an introvert. I am generally quiet, soft spoken and have little to say. Though I enjoy the company of close friends, I prefer solitude. When I’m in a large-group settings, I tend to stick to the sidelines and still find my energy quickly drained by such events. Being […]

Still

It’s that scary moment when you feel sadness without self-pity When you embrace the pain, but have no desire to dwell in it When you let it pass over you, without claiming you It’s that scary moment that you know you are more than this pain When you seek awareness over numbness Love over destruction […]
