The journal prompt I had for today was to define what love means to me. It’s also the day after Valentine’s Day, so love is in the air. Truth is, I’ve never really felt love, or what I would think to be love. I would guess that love is something that’s a natural euphoria. It […]

The greatest life lesson I learned last year is to not be scared to go for something you want. I guess there’s two lessons another one is to be authentic in everything you do. I’ll try to find a way to connect these things together because the two together will help me accomplish a lot […]
Falling in Love is Easy, Staying in Love is Hard
Love is a fickle thing. Falling love could come out of anywhere and at any time. It could be love at first sight. You could fall in love with someone after the first date. It may even take longer than that as a lifelong friendship turns into a relationship. Falling in love is definitely the […]
Don’t Treat Your Partner like a Therapist
It’s really easy to confide in the person who is closest to you. You tell him/her all of your secrets, your pains, and your frustrations. You know that your significant other will always have your back, but be weary of being too dependent on your partner when it comes to your emotional health. When looking […]

It’s good that we are talking about toxic masculinity during my time. One thing that seems to be missing is the heterosexual relationship that men have with women. The narrative, especially if you’re a black male like me, is that we don’t love girls. It’s money over women. Bros before hoes. It’s sucks that I […]
Why Arguing with People is Pointless
I have come to terms that I probably think differently than some people (maybe most people). When I have a point of view that I wish to portray, I know it can be hard to express it, especially if the other party doesn’t agree with what I have to say. This sometimes leads into an […]
Your Relationships Reflect the Relationship with Yourself
As an introvert, I’m pretty envious of people who can walk into the room and be the life of the party. They can call on so many people who know their name because they have thriving relationships. As I grow older, I’m starting to question whether I can do the same thing, and whether being […]
