You Are Your Own Leader, No One Can Take That From You

No one is the best in life, but you need to be the master of your own fate.

I can tell from my own experience that life is more than just following the heard and what they say all the time. Life is a breeding society where we make our own choices and create them from scratch. We start from the beginning and follow life's trajectory and how it takes us to our destination. In this pathway, we look at all the options and think about how difficult it is to be someone else. We want to be ourselves. I firmly believe we should start doing something that benefits us and our health for the long run.

From my experience, life can be a very difficult thing to handle. You can feel lonely and choose to exist as a hermit underneath a shell. However, that is really not the case. Not everyone should feel inferior to anyone else and they should take control of their lives. I am not saying that you should aim for the best just to gain recognition from others, but do something so you feel proud of yourself once in a while. Try to excel for something you think you can do well in so the world around you can become a peaceful place. On another note, thinking negatively can't really do much to help the world around you. It's best to think positively and be happy in your own "safe space." A safe space is one in which you create and try to be happy in so you won't give up to other's ideals. You can be a leader of an organization and be happy with what you do. And, the best thing is that you can learn to be different from the rest by being someone who can earn their own trust. On another note, be your best version- a reinvented human being who knows what they want to achieve in their life. You can be the leader of a women's organization and still feel out of place. In reality, one has to like what they are doing so they can achieve their best potential.

I am not telling you to BS your way out of life and think of it as a race. Take your time in fulfilling your best potential so you can take advantage of it later onwards. Try not to give up on something so you feel bad about the result. Make the best out of your life so you wouldn't feel bad about it towards the end. Another thing to note is the feeling of always being independent so you can conquer your own life without feeling down about it. I personally journal all my thoughts down and everything that bothers me so feeling bad about isn't something that I keep bottled up. Until otherwise noted, you shouldn't feel that life is trapping you under a suitcase and keeping you in there with no potential ways to escape. I would seek out the ray of sunshine that keeps me happy and make connections with others so I can have the best lifestyle possible and be the creator of a novel lifestyle with more to follow.

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

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…

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.
