I finally made it out to Central Park this spring and it was such a lovely day. I found ALL THE BLOSSOMS! Honestly, I think this was the first time ever that I walked from one end of the park (59th Street) to the other end (110th Street) all in one go. My brother and I walked it this past Tuesday. My intention was to find some blossoms, soak up…
What I like most about journaling is beginning a new journal. Is that weird? I like the idea that I am able to begin again and start fresh. I have a lot of trouble finishing a journal, but never starting a new one. Sometimes I wish I could go back in time and begin this whole creative journey over again. Start fresh with a new blog, new Youtube channel, new…
It’s time to start something new and trust the magic of beginnings. — Meister Eckhart What makes beginnings so magical? Is it the excitement of trying something new? Or the anticipation of whats to come? What if you’ve already done this thing and are starting over? Is that equally as exciting? Is it different? I honestly have not a damn clue what makes beginnings so freaking magical, exciting, and wonderful.…
I am a firm believer that we never truly “grow up” as people. Yes we get older and yes we take on more responsibilities, but does that mean we are really “grown up?” I guess being in my twenties, I’m forever stuck in that “you’re an adult now!” “no, not really” stage of my life. I’m not married nor do I have any kids of my own. I manage my own…
So this is something different I’m sharing today. I’ve had this idea in my head to share some thoughts using paper in a stop-motion sort of way. I’ve been constantly thinking about the idea that we’re all interconnected and I wrote this bit one night before I went off to sleep. I decided to share it as my first stop-motion “thought poem” as I’m calling it. I hope you enjoy.
“Style is knowing who you are, what you want to say, and not giving a damn.” – Orson Welles I want to share something with you all today that I shared in my Mindfully You email that went out the first of this month. This month’s theme is Style and as such, I have asked everyone to explore their personal style–if they have one–and the styles that have influenced them…
BIG MAGIC BY ELIZABETH GILBERT (2015) ISBN: 9781408866740 “Do you have the courage? Do you have the courage to bring forth this work? The treasures that are hidden inside you are hoping you will say yes.” So today I want to talk about creative living. I just finished this book–this really pretty book that I has taken me a year to read (terribly long story that involved a lot of traveling…
I must have written the title of this post a hundred times over. I don’t really know what to call this thing that I’m about to explain, but I can say that it’s the truth and it happens all of the time. I don’t like getting political on my blog, but with the current state of discourse, it’s hard to ignore certain things going around at the moment. But for…
I like being home. It seems weird coming from me, a person who loves to travel, but when I’m here in my hometown of New York City, I just like being home, inside in my room with my dog, all of my crafty stuff and my imagination (or Netflix) to keep me company. I don’t know what it is, but I become this homebody whenever I return home. Generally, I only…
Okay, before I start venting about my home city of New York, I just want to say that I do love my city. It’s a great city and I can sort of see the hype everyone has around it (well, no I really don’t see it in the same way as an outsider may see it, but I get it). It’s big and new and so busy, there’s just a…
She was beautiful in white, walking out to an instrumental version of Bruno Mars’ Just The Way You Are, which was so distinctly her that it made you smile amongst all the tears. She laughed through the whole ceremony, but you had to expect that because that’s how she deals with nervousness. Afterwards, my friend found the whole thing odd, and not because our high school friend had just gotten married, but…
Life By Committee By Corey Ann Haydu (2014) ISBN: 9780062294050 [su_note note_color=”#ffe8e8″ radius=”1″]Secret: I kissed someone else’s boyfriend. Assignment: Do it again.

Her best friend has ditched her, her Vermont town is feeling way too small, and she’s falling head over heels for a guy named Joe—who already has a girlfriend. Just when Tab is afraid she’ll burst from keeping…
