#heartshapedeverything #721
I'M SELF PUBLISHING A PHOTO BOOK AND I NEED YOUR HELP! What is #heartshapedeverything #721? A few months after tragically losing my dad, I found a heart shaped rock on my 21st birthday. I saw the numbers 7:21, $721, HWY 721, license plates with 721 EVERYWHERE. My dad passed away on 7-21-06. I kept finding heart shaped rocks and eventually it turned into heart shaped everything. All of these "little" things were BIG in my stages of grief. I'm definitely a spiritual person and to me... these were all big signs.

Highly Sensitive People: Superpower vs. Burden

The universe is such a mystery filled with wonder.

You could see bits and pieces of ash drift through the air like rain. I should know, the roof of my house was gone. I could clearly see the not-so-clear sky directly above me as I gazed from my bedroom. Or, what used to be my bedroom...

Imperfect Foods: and Why I Love Them
I was 30 seconds away from signing up with Misfits Market when a friend mentioned that you don’t have a lot of flexibility with choosing your items. She recommended Imperfect Foods. I’ll be honest, I had not heard of either of these companies. While I don’t have any first hand experience with Misfits Market, word of mouth typically affects my decision making unless I have my own experiences to attribute.

Fashionista? Nope, not really.
Let us start with this amazing song. Whether you like the song or not...I need you to watch it long enough to see Mariah Carey’s outfit. I tried to find a high quality image of it on the webs of the internet and was unsuccessful. So here we are!
