You Before Life
In life people tend to prioritize careers. They’ll prioritize they’d finances. They’ll prioritize people. They’ll prioritize their home. They’ll prioritize a vacation before the person going on it. Everything comes before the most important person in the entire scenario, you!

Do better, you have to be better!
So my initial reaction to hearing that Vocal had a contest geared towards writing, I thought let me see what’s up. Sure enough, I submitted an entry prematurely not reading all the details in its entirety. Naturally it was rejected, and naturally I was frustrated. Then I thought, well maybe I need to dig a little bit deeper and really get an understanding of the contest rules. To my surprise it involved Tik-Tok! First thing that came to mind was, oh great I can’t escape social media if I wanted to. Reading a bit further the contest was about “For you” and highlighting someone who was not popular or viral. Immediately I was sold. Now was the tricky part, who to highlight? After browsing my “For you” section tirelessly (all of 30 seconds) I realized that the person I should highlight is myself. For me.

Learning My Self-worth and Finding my Happiness During a Quarantine
Life since March has not been easy on any of us and it hasn't gotten any easier and for most has gotten much worse. The world is spiraling and so is my mental state, my depression hit an all-time low. I lost a lot of people after graduating from High School and let me tell you, I was a shell of a human being in my teen years. Didn't acknowledge a single good thing about myself no matter how many times my friends tried to drill into my head that I was a good person but I had very low self-esteem. I truly believed I was an unattractive human being from a very young age. But, despite all that, this was not the lowest I've ever been even because I faced even more hardship then petty drama.

True Self Love
Part 1 Learning to truly love yourself is harder than you think. Most everyone think they love themselves, but in reality we don’t! Think about it, do you feel guilty when you tell someone “No”? Do you live to please others? Do you allow others to hurt you? Do you choose others over your own needs? THAT IS NOT SELF LOVE!!

A Book To Change Your Life
When I was six years old, I was just beginning to explore what would eventually become an obsession with literature. As I excitedly described Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone to my Aunt, she told me that one day, I would read a book that would change my life.

Gentler
One of the most important realisations I had in my early twenties was how harsh the judgement I bestowed upon myself was. I realised that if I was to be content, I needed to stop letting the physical characteristics of myself define my value. I stopped letting some stray curly hairs or a wobbly bit dictate when and where I could have fun, and learnt to just let go.

Career Change?
Have you ever become unsatisfied with your current career path? I'm sure many people have been. I had been pretty satisfied with my career path. It isn't the most glamorous, nor the best career nor even the most lucrative. I was a retail worker. I loved it for a long time, especially when I was working for the right store.
