Liz Writes: The Blog

 Hello Readers, I am not sure how deep I am going to go with this post but I am allowing myself to be seen regardless of where this goes. I have hidden myself for so long that I don’t fully know what it means to be seen. It seemed that every time I outgrew my shell, and ventured out to be social-able, that I didn’t truly know what was going on. It felt like I was stuck in the past or a time loop, like I was always blindsided, but I won’t allow that to happen again.  I’ve lived for the happiness of others for so long, and it got me nowhere, so I am here to tell you that doing what I am doing, becoming who I am meant to be, is what makes me happy. I care about people and want to spread hope, shine the light within me and be myself, because doing that means the world would be a better place.  It also reminds me that for me to gain something new through the new moon phase, I must let go of something equally important. So, I chose to release sheltering myself, letting go of my...

  Hello Readers,   Living in a time where everyone seems content with what they’re doing or even sure of what they want to do is really daunting when there’s a lot of options. There is also the lengthy process of weighing the pros and cons of choosing what to do that proves just as difficult. For me, it’s these two combined with knowing that whatever I wanted to do needed to fit me and my whole personality while giving me the confidence to keep doing it.   Finding my calling and my purpose has been difficult because I never genuinely believed in myself. This is partially due to Imposter Syndrome and me believing that everyone is better than me. While it is worth noting that there are people better than me at writing, it does not negate the fact that my voice is worth hearing. Sometimes I feel silenced by others who talk over me and other times I silence my own self because the people I aim to talk to are imposing as heck. It finally took me realizing that if I wan...

 Hello Readers,    In 8 days, it will have been a year since my last post, and a lot of things have changed. As of now, the words "This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius" echoes and rings through my mind as I can't deny my own self anymore. On February 2nd of this year, I lost my mom to pneumonia and COPD plus a lot of other health issues. While her death was pretty sudden, I can't say that it wasn't unexpected as she had the same health scare two years ago, but it was her time this year. The good thing is that my little family and I were able to see her at Christmas.    On another note, we left from the Augusta area as we blew through the insurance money from the camper fire and are now living with some of my family. This is something my fiancé's "good Christian family" couldn't afford to do it and as my previous post made clear that there was a major falling out. Not only that, but the last two people we trusted betrayed us by not even aski...
