“When you fail to tap into your wellsprings of inner strength due to toxic habits, environments or people, you wind up feeling trapped, stranded, and unhappy. You end up in soulless jobs, destructive relationships and empty friendships. Most of all, you find yourself unsatisfied with who you are, and you often become your own worst … Continue reading When You Fail To Tap Into Your Wellsprings…
Unhappiness
Shutting Down
I've had roughly six pain-free hours in the past two weeks, so bear with me. I could never say "I hurt." enough. 😦 That's not even the appropriate terminology for what I've been experiencing, and I hate it. Pain isn't always physical. For me, it often is, but sometimes pain is also emotional. I don't … Continue reading Shutting Down
Friday: The Dark Artifice
I woke up far too early this morning to a dark, grey day. Normally that wouldn't bother me (it rarely does), but it's the fact that the weekend is hanging over my head...the artifice of it darkening my mood. Under normal circumstances the weekend is a dear friend I welcome with open arms, but it … Continue reading Friday: The Dark Artifice

In turn, it's making me irritable beyond words. I am so bitchy, I can't stand the sound of my own thoughts. 😦 I … Continue reading Tuesday Blues
I’m Not…
“I'm not unhappy," he said. "Only people with no purpose are unhappy. I've got a purpose.” ―Cassandra Clare
Silver Linings
At this particular point in time, I am having difficulties seeing the silver linings. Life has its ups and downs. Sometimes it's good and sometimes it sucks. We've all experienced this. I'm not quite certain what to do when it's predominantly sucky. I work hard, but there is always a problem that arises and it's … Continue reading Silver Linings
This Is How I Know It’s Wednesday
Once the heat & humidity overpowers your thoughts, the days just blend, one into the other. After a while, you find yourself occasionally double-checking the date so that you don't make an error on something that may or may not be all that important. When it doubt, check it out. How do I know that … Continue reading This Is How I Know It’s Wednesday
