Hello December
You are allowed to reinvent yourself as many times as you want. My big sister and I (ousie), as I call her, loved playing pretend. She had the most vivid imagination. Sometimes we would be on an adventure through an enchanted forest, scaling mountains and jumping across lakes of fire, or we would run away…

Hello November
Keep Going There is an old saying that goes; “Hope differed makes the heart sick.” And oh, has my heart been broken along the way. Nothing is more painful than seeing your dream come to life before you, and then just as you attain it, it crumbles and dies. Growing up, I dreamed of creating…

Hello May
Hello May A few weeks ago I sent my big sister a message about how betrayed I felt by the way an organization had been treating me. I expressed how used I felt and how disappointed I was in the way they had handled everything. My big sister listened quietly, and then sent me this:…

Hello April
Today is a hard day for me… Last year, I woke up with a song in my heart and was ready to start the new month. April is a month that brings change, it brings shifts, it bring new things. In my mind, I was focusing on the new season we were moving into and…

Hello March

Ever gone through something difficult or challenging and have some one tell you things will get better or joy will come back in the…
