All Women Are Crazy

You simply have to find the crazy that you can handle

All Women Are Crazy
Mackenzie Holmberg

All women are crazy.

Yeah, we know, but don't think that this article is about defending women by saying that men are the reason that all women are crazy (even though sometimes they play a role in it). Nope, this article is somewhat of an explanation for half the sh*t that we do that defines us as crazy.

Hormones

These little molecules are the cause of some major emotional outbursts. We have such limited control over these little guys and we ask ourselves all the time, why can't we get a grip on them? The can make women go from extremely pissed to a flood of tears. We cannot always blame them, but we are sorry that we can't always control them.

Expectations

Girls have always been dreamers, and that won't ever change. We have plans. We have dreamt of the perfect guy, house, job, etc., and we get (unnecessarily) upset when our plans don't work out. We're in the process of figuring out how to accept the reality of it all and sometimes all we need is a little time for that to set in. Some ladies never figure it out till later in life, and I'm sorry if you missed that memo.

Heartbreak

We watched a lot of princess movies growing up, and in none of them did they every get rejected or had their man leave them, or cheated on. How were we supposed to know that love isn't as easy as the movies played it out to be? When the heart gets hurt, it has two options: it can start to callous or it can bounce back and try again. Many women harden their hearts and become a challenge to love. Remember to be careful with the ones who chose to bounce back, because it wasn't easy for them to try again.

Media

Media plays a huge role in why women are so crazy. Media has boggled every women's mind. You must look this way, dress like this, but love yourself exactly how you are? Men want you to do this, or you will get a promotion if you dress like so. We want to please everyone and it's impossible.

Maturity

Some women simply aren't emotionally matured yet. They're still in the high school mentality. Always trying to be the most popular, most loved, the prettiest, the richest, etc. They simply haven't matured, and only time will tell when they will.

Feminism

Not all women actually agree with these modern feminist movements and ideas. Some of us still see the value in gender roles. That doesn't mean that women are not capable of certain jobs or tasks; they just aren't as expected out of women. We shouldn't limit people from pursuing their passions, but we don't need to change the whole system just because we need to make one person feel accepted. They mistake kindness as offensive gestures. They are the reason crazy has a negative connotation to it. Feminism has caused many crazy women to go insane.

So, yes, all of us are crazy, but crazy doesn't have to be a bad thing. You just have to simply find the crazy that you can handle. She's out there.

“You know, sometimes all you need is twenty seconds of insane courage. Just literally twenty seconds of just embarrassing bravery. And I promise you, something great will come of it.” Benjamin Mee, "We Bought A Zoo"

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
