The Why of Doing Mundane Tasks
How much of our lives are made up of dull and repetitive tasks that we would rather not do?

Anxiety Tingz
Thoughts racing uncontrollably. I got so much to accomplish yet I don’t fully understand where to begin. I’m nervous, anxious, ready, & even more TIRED. How should one change without proper guidance? Many chances that I have had to change into a better me has been taken & I have most def changed. Although positive, I still remain stuck in a time zone that I cannot escape. It’s like trying to get to the light, but instead you keep getting yanked back the closer you get. It’s worth the fight, but being 25 only makes this the beginning to my end. I just wanna end on a positive aspect, raise my kids & be successful. Whole time, I want my lil sister next to me conquering life.
