Rest In Peace

 tWitch Boss. You were such a light to so many. If you only knew how many people adored you. Maybe you did and it still was not enough. Nobody will ever know.

May you Rest In Peace.

This makes me so sad.

I loved watching him on SYTYCD way back when and then seeing him do so many other things through the years. Watched his wife and him on TikTok occasionally with their kids, dance skits, etc.

This is just another example of you never know what people are going through....BE KIND ALWAYS.

And if you are struggling, PLEASE try your hardest to reach out to friends, family, counselor, doctor, teacher...988. You matter! You are worth it!

Don't do something that will be permanent for a temporary setback. Everything is fixable.

Note: If you or any of your loved ones are struggling with suicidal thoughts, you can always reach out to the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline by calling 988. They are available 24/7 by phone or online chat.

Life Hack {For Depression}

 If you suffer from depression, like I do...there are days, many days in the week,  that I can barely function and get out of bed..but I do because well...LIFE.

With that in mind, I have learned to keep a routine. It is a pretty simple routine but routine never the less.

1) Set alarm to get up at the same time EVERY.DAY (even if you really don't need to get up nor have any place to go)

2) Get out of bed.

3) Take a shower.

4) Get dressed.

5) Do your hair, put make up on, etc

See now that wasn't that hard. I know when I do the above it helps me get out of the funk and SHOW UP...Maybe not for the whole day but it definitely helps set me up for some success in the morning hours. AND that is progress! 

What life hacks do you have to help with your depression?

I Am...

 I Am....

---a beautiful blooming lotus gracefully appearing above the murky waters.

---a phoenix rising from the red hot smoldering ashes.

--a volcano simmering ready to erupt.

--a sparrow taking flight high above the trees.

--a lion pacing side to side waiting to attack its prey.

I Am...

--beautifully broken yet wonderfully made.
