Being In Your 20's Sucks!
When you were a kid, all you wanted was to grow up. You wanted to be an adult and not spend time with your parents and do whatever you want to do! By the time you're a teenager you think: "I can't wait to finish school and get on with my life, thing's will be so much better as an adult!". And then you leave school, hit your 20's, and realise "oh shit go back! I'll do anything to be seven years old again!" then you're stuck being an adult FOREVER. Literally, until the day you die. How unfair is that?!

The Lion Sleeps Tonight
I have awful taste in music. My top played song lists are where one hit wonders go to die. This week, my listening history prompted Spotify’s algorithm to suggest the theme song from Fraggle Rock, the University of Michigan’s marching band fight song, and a cover of What Makes You Beautiful sung entirely by children. At the time of writing, I’m listening to a version of Cotton Eyed Joe which has been extended for line dancing.

Just Do You Boo
How much time do you spend on your phone? On Instagram or on Facebook? On Snapchat or on Youtube? I know I can spend hours on these apps. I sometime ask myself what could I be doing that would help me in future. I even sometimes wonder where I would be in life if I use the time I spend on my phone towards building a legacy. Don't get me wrong, I love myself some Instagram and Youtube, but as a person that has huge dreams, I found that spending too much time on these things can lead us to a road that we never intend to go down. That what seems to be long and dark road is a road call comparison.

Living in a Dying World
I remember the first time I went to Yosemite National Park. The trees were so tall I felt as if they touched the sky. The pines were lush with pine needles and they littered beautiful big pine cones on the forest floor. The sequoias were intimidating in size and majesty, and I could feel the energy of our earth humming through the trunks as if it were a silent song they all sang as one.

Why Not Go For It?
Dreams are those things that keep nagging at you when you are attempting to go about your day. Sure, you are living your life in your 9-5 - it's not great but it pays the bills. By Wednesday people are counting down the minutes to Friday and you find yourself sarcastically answering "You know, living the dream" with an eye-roll when someone asks you how you are doing.

Breaking Free
The problem with living a nomadic (or semi-nomadic) life is of course, money. The root of all evil. I’ve long believed that the trick to happiness is to alleviate the need for this dirty entity. I don’t think I can think of a single problem that doesn’t have its origin in money, in some small way or other.

Achieving my biggest dream
When I was a young girl about six or seven years old I was always the calm one, shy and who never talks .Before I was interested in nothing I loved watching television playing with my Barbie dolls and stuff like that .One day i was eating dinner with my grandparents because my mom had to go to a business trip so I was just eating my grandmother’s homemade lasagna which was delicious and I’d say very rich in aroma ,then my grandad asked if i want to go to with them in a ballet concert near the capital of London and I was kind of interested and accepted the opportunity to go and entertain myself with a ballet show .So as we when to the concert everything was nice there there was treats and gifts for us saying “thank you for attending the ballet show we wish you a very pleasant night “ so this was the moment,the moment we were all waiting for...as the ballerinas entered the stage my eyes widened and heart raced as the beautiful classic harmony got me shivering like crazy but then she started dancing ... it was so cool I just loved how they just twirl around and dance so beautifully.After we got out my grandmother asked if I liked it and I said that I loved and wanted to be a ballet too and so dancing was now one of my my hobbies that I loved doing ,I practiced every single day to get into The Vaganova School in Russia and the task was to achieve my dream .

The Power of Thought
Last week I was walking home from the market. The sky was dreary and a light rain covered my section of the world. I quickened my pace. I wanted to get home so that I could eat my crunchy peanut butter right out of the jar. It’s my comfort food.

Who's the Hero of Your Story?
Growing up, I always dreamt of being a superhero. There were so many movies and TV shows circulating that inspired me to want this but, even more so, helped me to realize an innate desire that I already possessed for wanting to help people. Do you remember imagining whole worlds in your backyard or living room where you were the hero, saving everyone or giving your life so the world would be saved? Whatever your make-believe story was, my question is, Are you still dreaming today, or did that superhero saving worlds in their living room get lost along the way? Did you become the teacher you dreamt about being or the Hollywood movie star? Did you live out your dream of recording albums or traveling around the world? Did you become the mother or father you always wanted to be?

Everything You Want is in the Middle of a Frozen Lake.
As illogical as it is, I tend to think of myself as the only one; in a world of billions--the only one. The only one scared of not achieving my goals, of not "making" it in life. The only one dealing with loss and rejection. The only one with a frozen lake.
