An Open Letter To Women

The pursuit of dreams during and after Women's History Month.

Hey Readers!


When I write, I try to instill a sense of motivation to whoever finds it useful. There aren't guidelines to life, so we have to make them up ourselves as we go along.

During Women's History Month, I challenge women to do one thing you've hesitated with. It could be a hobby you've never taken up but showed interest in or a book you've never had the time to read. It can be a long-term or short-term goal, but I hope it adds a sense of positivity and peace to your life.

I know this sounds like a strange thing to write about this week, but too often, I see goals or moments get lost within time. These moments, then, become regrets. I, myself, am trying to remember the things that keep me happy and passionate so they don't become forgotten.

The determination within each one of us is essential to who we are, so keep this in mind when you feel you can't do something you've been wanting to do. If you feel you don't have the determination, I hope that any of my writings help. Sometimes, we need a reminder that fuels the dreamer within all of us. I hope that my words provide that for someone out there.

I understand that all of us as women come from different parts of the world. With this, brings different cultures, languages, and even daily routines. However, what I hope is that you do what brings you happiness. Happiness means many things, but as long as it brings restoration to your well-being and adds positivity, challenge yourself to do it.

Imagine five years from now if you've never attempted to take that trip you've wanted or applied for that job you've had your eye on. Imagine if you've wanted to whisk yourself away for a little while with the person you love or to sing that song you've practiced in your head over and over, but never got to do it.

I have never claimed to be an expert in life. But what I do understand is that whatever part of you lights up when you hear or see something you've held back from doing or accomplishing, please listen and do it. Time will not wait for you or me, so give all that you've got to that particular challenge for yourself. As I've said in the past: may all of your wildest dreams come true. Even after Women's History Month comes to a close.


With Deepest Sincerity,

Jessica

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Blair Waldorf
Stop Hollywood

For those of you who have watched "Gossip Girl" before (and maybe more than just once), you know how important of a character Blair Waldorf is. Without Blair, the show doesn’t have any substance, scheme, or drama. Although the beginning of the show started off with Blair’s best friend Serena returning from boarding school, there just simply is no plot without Blair. With that being said, Blair’s presence in the show in much more complex than that. Her independent and go-getter ways have set an example for "Gossip Girl" fans since the show started and has not ended even years after the show ended. Blair never needed another person to define who she was and she certainly didn’t need a man to do that for her. When she envisioned a goal, she sought after it, and took it. This is why Blair’s demeanor encompasses strong women like her.
