8/8 Prompt

blog

What change, big or small, would you like your blog to make in the world?

I hope my blog makes people feel seen and heard, whether they see themselves in my writing or it inspires them to start their own blog/journal. I hope it gives people who are struggling with mental health hope and happiness, because I am definitely not the same person I was when I started this blog 5+ years ago. It’s normal for us all to have struggles on our journeys, but what’s important is we keep coming home to ourselves, and I hope my blog helps to remind people of that.

What traditions have you not kept that your parents had?

Drinking alcohol every night of my life and getting belligerent on weekends- I decided I didn’t want to continue that. LOL so sorry that was definitely some dark humor, but also we didn’t really have traditions other than holiday stuff, and my husband and I don’t have kids yet so our traditions are our own for now!

What are your future travel plans?

My husband and I would love to travel over to Japan and the Philippines sometime in our lives. This is not currently planned considering we still need to renew our passports, but it’s definitely been on the mind. I know we also want to go back to where we got married down in Florida- we were thinking about going around Christmastime this year, but we will see!

We’ve done cruises in the past and although they were fun, we’re more interested in staying at an all inclusive resort somewhere. The hard part about cruises is typically your stops are only for a day or so, sometimes even just eight hours! So an all inclusive would be nice so we could explore one destination for a while.
