A Purposeful Life
The big question that we’ve all been asked to answer at least once in our lives: what are you passionate about? My simple answer that I plan to expand upon over the course of the next 900 words is this… I am passionate about brainwashing you to believe in yourself.

Why Aren't They Barefoot, Too?
My mom was a flower child who grew up in the 70’s, wore her hair in two long braids, or flowing freely without a care in the world, and spent all of her free time playing guitar in the park where everybody from Westchester High went when they skipped class. To me there was no one quite like her, and her otherworldly personality differed almost completely from the people we were surrounded by when we moved from New York to Maine. Talk about a culture shock. I always wondered why the other adults weren’t smiling as much as my mom, and why they didn’t seem to be barefoot… ever. It wasn’t something that made sense to me as a young girl who had learned everything about life from her single mom.

Day 76Top Story - February 2021
The first thing I remember about the day that changed my life is opening my eyes and seeing fluorescent lights above me. I couldn’t turn my head in either direction without feeling an intense pain shooting down my spine, so I kept looking up at the fluorescent lights. There’s no reason for you to know this, but I hate fluorescent lights. I don’t know who created them, but I wish they stayed home that day. I remember realizing I was in a hospital, but I don’t remember how I got there. I remember lying on that hospital bed for what felt like an hour before a nurse came in to check on me. It could have been ten minutes, it could have been thirty seconds, but to me, it felt like an hour. Nevertheless, my nurse was finally here.
