The day I moved into my new apartment was a little stressful. I drove to the new place with a U-Haul full of my life, excited about this cute yellow door that God opened for me. After literal hours of unpacking and arranging things, I went to drop off the U-Haul. My frat brothers followed… Continue reading being grateful when it is hard

I saw a victory
Trigger Warning: Suicidal Ideation In August of 2019, I wanted to die. I just couldn’t go on anymore. I locked myself in the bathroom and stared at myself in the mirror. Curious about what my parents would find in the morning. Curious about the conversation they’d have with my sisters and brother. Curious about how… Continue reading I saw a victory
my issue with manifestation
Happy New Year! Can you believe we are officially 3 years out from 2020? I feel like 2020 is now my litmus test for how chaotic something was or is. So I'm going to dive right in because this is a topic I've been thinking about since the spring of 2021. I personally believe you… Continue reading my issue with manifestation
is Egypt still in you?
So I have this thing that I do and before I share it, yes I know it’s not a good thing at all. So if a situation comes up where I have an opportunity to sin, I’ll tell God “oh this is the last time” and just … sin. And frankly it’s a double whammy… Continue reading is Egypt still in you?
When you are weak, receive
It’s been a long time since I’ve written here or even gone to church. I’ve been … scared to be in God’s presence. I don’t know if it is the lack of trust I had in Him over my future or frustration because it seems like nothing is working out the way I want it… Continue reading When you are weak, receive

letting go of my idols
I originally started this post in February of 2020, right when Love Is Blind first aired. Then I let it sit in my drafts for two years because I was never really sure how to formulate my thoughts. Unless you're like me and avoided social media or Netflix for the past few weeks (or in… Continue reading letting go of my idols
Cycles
See, the devil, he learns from your mistakes ... even if you dont.Cycles - Jonathan McReynolds The first time I heard this song, my mind was blown. Not just by the artistry of the lyrics but by the way it grabbed my bleeding heart and tightened its grip until I couldn't take it. Apparently, the… Continue reading Cycles
you must enter a relationship with yourself before anyone else
I wrote this piece in the winter of 2017. This piece has always meant so much to me because it was the first time I started to associate sex with how harmful it truly is when it is had outside of marriage. It took a few years for me to really get it though. I've… Continue reading you must enter a relationship with yourself before anyone else
clearing out the house
Like most of my posts, I’m admitting a lot of things. This is actually one of the hardest posts I've written in a while because I'm purging some deeply internalized things. I recently found out that another friend is moving into a stage of life that I so desperately desire. I'm actually so happy for… Continue reading clearing out the house
