Valentine's Day is just around the corner and while the pandemic has put a damper on many things this year... it doesn't have to put a damper on your love. There's been a challenge going around: "Tell me You're _____ without Telling Me You're _____." I thought I'd put a spin on the trend and come up with one for Valentine's Day. 1. "I appreciate you for who you are and everything you do" Everyone loves to be appreciated, not only for what they do, but just for who they are. This phrase shows your significant other that you pay attention to ho ..read more

Luke 9:25 "What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit his very self?" This verse always packs a punch every time I hear it. It seems like most people take this very to be very superficial, but it's actually quite deep. Yeah, all of us claim to be Christians, followers of God, but who is actually striving to follow God in their everyday lives? I'm sure if you take a closer look at your life, at your character, you'll see a lot of flaws. You can probably think of ten times off the top of your head when you did something you knew you weren't supposed to d ..read more

Since February is Black History Month, I thought I'd take the time and share a little bit of black history - inventions specifically. Because of the constant and pervasive whitewashing that is done in schools, many people don't know about all the contributions that black people have made in the development and progress of this country.

I don’t know if you guys have heard of Veganuary but it’s a challenge that happens every year and challenges people to commit to being vegan for the whole month of January. Well, I didn’t do this challenge, but a similar one with my coworkers.

There is just something about this time of year that sets my heart aglow and brings a smile to my face. Not everyone has this experience and that is understandable considerin ..read more

As you all know we are in the midst of a pandemic, COVID-19, as they like to call it, has taken the world by storm. While this isn't the first pandemic the world has dealt with, the closeness of the virus is a first for a lot of people my age living in America, specifically Gen Z. It's a scary time to be alive, and the media has only exacerbated the situation. Now, I'm not saying that this virus isn't as serious as media outlets are making it seem, but during this time we have to remain calm and practice what we know about hygiene, health safety, and social distancing. Social distancing is the ..read more
