Today has a story to tell Ringing through air like a bell In languages I understand Most of which I can’t Millions of souls walk the streets Only one of which is me Rain streaks down a window pane Tears relieve overwhelming pain Laughter cascades around the block Round the corner and suddenly unlock Memories …
you can be in darkness and feel peace or fear you can daydream of the future and just be here you can look in the mirror and feel sad and alone you can stand in your own house and be far from home you can achieve every accolade and reach every goal you can win …
Life can be incredibly complex. Its ebbs and flows are overwhelming enough but tack on to that our perception and somehow we manage to complicate it even further. Take my life for instance. A few weeks ago, life hit me with something I wasn’t anticipating. Despite my best efforts, dotting every ‘i’ and crossing each …
The Grammys happened a couple nights ago. Normally I don’t tune in and this year was no different. For whatever reason award shows have never appealed to me. Perhaps I don’t quite understand them. I understand the concept but it’s the execution that perplexes me. How can an academy of self appointed experts take several …

I wonder what it must’ve felt like? Surrounded by thousands of fans, watched by millions around the world. Holding the trophy you committed your entire career for high above your head. Cementing yourself in history as an all time great. On that day, I’m not sure anyone in the world felt better than Lionel Messi. …
Pressure. That’s a word that has been all too common in conversations I have had lately. We are all feeling it and, what’s worse, is that pressure is coming from a variety of circumstances. I’ve spoken with friends who are worried about their jobs. Some don’t even know how they are going to pay their …
It’s odd to see the transformation discipline has taken over the course of my short life. When I was younger, and well before I was born, being disciplined was something everyone strived for.
