A place to show my work
We always remember to celebrate the big wins—graduations, promotions, milestones—but the small wins matter just as much. Finishing a tough week, making someone smile, or even just crossing something off your to-do list all deserve a little celebration. Those small victories add up and keep us going!
Rubbish is such a great word—it makes even the most annoying stuff sound a little bit funny. Whether you’re talking about nonsense, a pile of clutter, or just a bad day, calling it rubbish somehow makes it easier to handle. Sometimes you just have to laugh and toss the rubbish aside!
The best relationships are symbiotic—each person growing stronger because the other exists.
A dragon once munched on a shoe-y,
Declared, “This snack is delightfully chewy!”
He gnawed and he nibbled
’Til the laces unribbled,
Then sighed, “Next time I’ll try something gooey.”
Every secret eventually finds its eavesdropper; the real question is who’s brave enough to listen.
In the hush between breaths,
transmission begins—
a shimmer of thought
crossing the unseen bridge.
It hums in the wires,
it glows in the skin,
carrying more
than words can hold.
Philosophy was tough for me in college because it always felt like there were a hundred different answers to every question—and none of them were quite right! I’d leave class with my head spinning, wondering if I even knew what a chair was anymore. It was a real mental workout, for sure.
“We generate fears while we sit. We overcome them by action. Fear is nature’s way of warning us to get busy.” – Dr. Henry Link
Funny how the most meaningful things can stay unspoken. A quick glance, a shared laugh, or just sitting together in silence—sometimes those unspoken moments say everything we need. It’s pretty cool how much we can share without ever saying a word.
In your arms, the world grows quiet,
storms hush and shadows part.
Safety blooms, gentle and silent,
a tender shield around my heart.
Here worries soften, fears disarm—
there’s nowhere safer than your arms.
The scientist used a microscope to magnify the tiny specimen.
Mindfulness isn’t about sitting cross-legged for hours or clearing your mind of every thought. It’s simply about being present—really noticing your coffee in the morning, tuning in to your breath when things feel overwhelming, or savoring a good laugh. Tiny pauses like these can make your day feel lighter and more connected. I think it is more complicated than it sounds, but I keep giving it a shot.
Patience is one of my strongest traits—most days, I’m the person who can wait in a long line without complaint or listen quietly while someone shares a story I’ve already heard. I take pride in keeping calm and letting things unfold in their own time.
But I’ll admit: there are moments when impatience gets the best of me. When it comes to waiting for a package, I’ve been excited about, or sitting through slow-loading technology, my patience can wear thin.
Better late than never, I have decided to join. I will work on catching up, but here is my take on consistency.
Chasing dreams with fervent zeal,
Overcoming hurdles, one can feel.
Never wavering, steadfast and true,
Striving forward in all that we do.
In each endeavor, persistence is key,
Success unfolds, as it’s meant to be.
Time may test, but we stand tall,
Enduring the journey, we answer the call.
Not just a goal, but a way of life,
Through ups and downs, we embrace the strife.
Living fully, with passion in sight,
Yearning for progress, we soar to new heights.
