I Am Out of Ideas
I am officially out of things to write. I have such a block in my mind. I cannot think of anything, even with all my might. I've written things of each kind. Sometimes, I don't think they're good enough to publish. Sometimes, my opinion isn't something I should establish. People don't understand how hard it is. It's difficult being in the author biz. "Write about anything!" I'm told. On some topics, though, I'm not THAT bold. I hate feeling this way. My creativeness doesn’t sway. I know I have talent. Even though it's not prevalent. I just need practice. Because if I stop writing like this, it's something I'll surely miss.

Just Be Me
A lot has changed in the past few years. I've gained a lot, I've lost a lot. But now the world's all ears. I've found my voice. I'll say it loud: "Everything is my choice." No one is going decide for me, 'cause I'm stronger than I used to be. I'm going to write my own story, 'cause I'm here to just be me. I'm living a new life, and I'm going to make the best of it. I'm going to fight all of life's strife. The road ahead of me is full of promise, and now I've got a clear head. My old life, I won't miss. All the fake friends I'm leaving behind... I was so blind. But now I can see who I was meant to be.

To My Ex-Best Friend
I don't understand. What happened? What seems like yesterday, we were cool. But now, I feel like a fool. Out of nowhere, you had an issue with me. You made me feel as insignificant as a flea. I texted you "Merry Christmas," and when I got no reply I had to grimace. I'm over here listening to Bad Blood. I guess our friendship is a dud. I keep thinking of you with this song. What did I do that was so wrong? I suppose it's whatever. I'm gone, however. I hope you have a good life. Hope when I walk away you see the knife.

It's also the time of year that people go into stores acting like everything is the associate's fault. I worked in retail for almost 2 years, and sure enough, every year for Black Friday and Christmas shopping people tend to fly off the handle. In my time working in sales, I've acquired quite a few realizations about people and this type of business in general.

5 Tips on How to Cope With Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia is one of those "hidden diseases" where you usually can't physically see what's going on, but it's still there.

When A Woman Walks
When a woman walks with confidence, you see it. You see it in the smile on her face, the swing of her hips. She expresses herself through her newfound wit, and you see the genuine smile on her lips. Maybe it's the new hair color, or the contour she worked so hard on. She walks a little taller; all that self-doubt is gone. She never thought she'd get here, since people always set out to keep her down. But now her demons look at her with a sneer, and all she does is fix her crown. She walks with a new gait, knowing who she is now. She brushes off the hate, realizing she'd reach her dreams somehow. When a woman walks with confidence, you see it. You see it in the set of her shoulders, the look in her eyes. She expresses herself through her new makeup kit, and you see her new conviction come to rise.
