I am so grateful for all the people I have in my life. I am so grateful for my good health and the good health of everyone in my family. All my friends and a loving, yet sometimes unconventional, family. It doesn’t take away from the pain of missing someone who once was in your […]
One step at a time.
Deep in my heart, I am latching on to the hope that some day I will feel the warmth of you in my life again. Its agonising. To give context, soon after I wrote my piece “dear ex” my ex actually reached out to me. It was completely unexpected. I dreamed of it happening. I […]

Everyday, I look through my social media feed and find someone who is way prettier, way more intelligent and accomplished in life. Seriously, I can’t […]

The fact is, depression is not a weakness it is an illness.
Imagine waking up, and then imagine looking at yourself in the mirror and thinking you are worthless and have nothing to look forward to in the day. Imagine getting angry when someone says “hello” or when someone asks you a simple question such as “how are you this morning?”. Imagine feeling like the only thing […]

I could not even finish watching the documentary The Hunting Ground, it just made me sick. I am relatively young, and still in high school. This is something very hard to talk about, not because I have experience sexual assault myself, but because it is very controversial. Rape itself is a huge social issue in our world […]
Lets get real: I hate the school system

I am just being me. Yes, my writing has flaws! Thats what I enjoy about writing something fresh from […]
