Are you the type of person who says what you have to say? The type who would just say – blurt out what you want to say? I’m not, most of the time. I am very cautious with my words so it takes time for me to really say something. I usually play it in…

What’s Your Truth?
Even WordPress was excited about my three day posting streak! Who wouldn’t after many months of silence? I’m hoping that this will just be the start of many. Now let’s get real. Does the truth hurt your feelings or ego? I think accepting the truth is the hardest pill to swallow. If you saw something…
What’s Your {Soul}utions
It’s that time of the year again. New year. New look. New goals. New body. And a whole lot of resolutions waiting to be fulfilled or not… We put so much pressure on ourselves and the year’s just started. I know it helps to have a list of goals and to challenge ourselves into becoming…

Have you felt unmotivated lately? Unmotivated to write, maybe take photographs. Unmotivated to let yourself love freely, forgive easily or to just simply be. What…
That Thing Called Self-Love
“If you have the ability to love, love yourself first.” – Charles Bukowski At some point in our lives, we were told to give our all in everything. To love with all our heart. To be the best person that we can be. To always put our best foot forward. That sacrificing is the greatest…
It’s Not About Me
For the past weeks or was it months (at least that’s how it felt like), I have this empty feelings about my IG account. Now if you know me personally, you would know how much I love photography. But then it came to a point where all I see are people posting photos every day…
