The reason I'm writing this post is because last week, I retook the Myers-Briggs Personality Test to see if I was still an I.N.F.J. (I am). I asked my boyfriend and my sister to do the same. I think there's changed. But what I found interesting was something my boyfriend said, "Is mine a good… Continue reading The Wrong Personality

End of the World
The other day my grandfather said something very deep to me, that he could feel the coming of the End of the World. This sounds dramatic and he's a religious man so he was coming from the perspective of the Bible and the Apocalypse. But when I thought about it, I saw that he was… Continue reading End of the World

They've all got their fair share of problems and at the school, they are able to confront these and finally better their lives.

Life Lessons From Bojack Horseman
I've watched Bojack Horseman on Netflix through to the end. I'm now rewatching it. Why? Because it is brilliant.

So, here's what I've learned about life from Bojack Horseman… Continue reading Life Lessons From Bojack Horseman
The Definition of Mother
What is a Mother? A mother is not just someone who gives birth to you. A mother is someone who carries you in their arms and promises not to let go. And from the comfort of their arms, life is a little less scary. I've never known a father; not really. But a mother,… Continue reading The Definition of Mother
The Problem With The Millennial Generation
(I'm a millennial! I'm only 23! So what I say is coming from personal opinion, experience, and observations!) Impatience We think we don't have time. We see everyone else's lives in front of us and want to rush our own lives so that they stack up. Get money and status right now.

The Problem with Happiness
The majority of us want one thing from our lives: to be happy. But I think we've got this wrong. We should aim for Contentment, not Happiness; because one is a position or status (contentment), while the other is just an emotion (happiness). And you can't have one emotion forever. The problem with happiness is… Continue reading The Problem with Happiness
Don’t Worry If You’re Not An Expert
In life, I think we all want to be considered to be an expert. Consciously or not, achieving Expert status is a goal we all seek because it means we're validated, important, and knowledgable. Sounds great, right? Well, here's why I think being an expert can be a bad thing at times... Perfectionism If… Continue reading Don’t Worry If You’re Not An Expert
