After my last post, things took a drastic turn for the worse. I won't lie, I was totally smitten with this Doctor moving to Boston. I am not sure if it was Harvard, or all the punny jokes, but he swept me off my feet. Unfortunately, as I was developing feelings for someone who was … Continue reading Three strikes, you’re out

Growing in emotional maturity
For the longest time, I was looking for love in all the wrong places. In college, I was holding my breath waiting for my boyfriend to trust me. Once he didn't trust me, there was no relationship.

A special prayer
I recently found out that my ex is going through some major personal struggles. When I first heard this, a tiny part of me felt a little relief.

This is Me: Take it or leave it
Once I heard the song This is Me for the first time (in church of all places) it instantly got stuck in my head.
