I was scrolling through my gallery the other day when I stumbled upon some pictures of me when I was 2-3 years old. I could not help but smile at the pictures. There was an unmistakable boldness in the way I stared at the camera; some pictures clearly showed a mischievous spark in my eyes. … Continue reading Finding My Way Back #4: To The Girl I Used To Be

Finding My Way Back #3: Healing in Familiar Corners
In my earlier posts in this series, Finding My Way Back and Finding My Way Back #2: Between The Pages, I spoke about new beginnings, new spaces, new experiences, and reconnecting with my hobbies.

Finding My Way Back #2 – Between The Pages
When I wrote my previous blog post, Finding My Way Back, I hadn't planned for it to become a series.

Moving to a new city, a new home, and a new routine has … Continue reading Finding My Way Back #2 – Between The Pages
