On Top of the World
Have you ever wanted to escape the world? To climb high into the mountains until you reach the clouds? Maybe you want to hop on a boat and sail away into the ocean as the waves take you away, and just let the worries of this world slowly fade away.

A Letter to My Younger Self
Hannah, Stop, just stop what you're doing right now. No one is bothering to look at you and if they happen to look your way, it is only because they see that you are enjoying yourself. That's what life is all about anyways, isn't it? Finding the things, people, and places that make you happy, fill you with joy, and you can hold close to your heart. You need to stop holding back and missing out on things you would have reveled in due to the irrational fear that you have of those around you judging you. Laugh loud and freely because you feel like it, make memories, because at the end of the day that's all we have, and most importantly love yourself relentlessly for who you are. Be kind to yourself. You matter.

Wisdom, Judgement, and Experience
"Wisdom comes from experience. Experience is often a result of lack of wisdom." ~Terry Pratchett You've heard people say "don't judge me" or perhaps you been told at some point "you're so judgemental." Further still, you've probably been guilty of both.

Desire and Acceptance
Today, in a world like ours, we all have desires. We all crave for something. Material or immaterial, it doesn’t matter. We all want something(s) in life. However, as miserable as things are, most of us never get them. And those of us who do, realize that their expectations were much higher than their desires.

How to Live a Positive Life!
It's crazy how, nowadays, we go about our lives with labels plastered onto us. The common ones can range from what our zodiac sign is and how that relates to how we act whereas the others are what we are internally going through whether that be anxiety, depression, and so forth.

Embrace the Suck
This is a phrase I try to tell myself as often as I can. Sometimes, life just sucks. It really does. This situation sucks, or this person sucks. But that's really, really ok. Life isn't supposed to be easy. What’s life without a little drama, or bleakness?

Fear the Future?
The future, that word sometimes strikes the fear of the unknown within each of us. This fear of the unknown is prevalent in everything in society, we are all afraid for many reasons in our life. Some fear like that of danger is inherent to our most primal of natures and can help us protect ourselves. While other fear we allow to interfere with who we are as a people and as an individual.

The Sheep or the Wolf?
We often like to think of ourselves as "introverts" and "extroverts" in terms of our social makeup in how we act socially and how we get along with others. However, I like to think of another spectrum for which deserves some thought and introspection. Both of these classifications are not anything new, but I would like to put my own personal spin on what they represent, the good and the bad characteristics, and how these two personality types interact with other people.

Mountains
Mountains are full of duality. On the one hand, you have breathtaking scenic landscapes like those found in the Rockies or Alps, perfect for skiing, snowboarding, hiking, or camping depending on the season. On the other hand, you have hostile landscapes such as Everest, where a single miscalculation could mean the difference between life and death. And yet, people are drawn to both aspects of mountains. Personally, I'm drawn to the former—I love skiing and camping, and the daily views of the Rockies is one of the many reasons I love living in Colorado. But today, I want to talk about a different duality involving mountains. This duality is more metaphorical than literal, and hopefully you'll be able to draw inspiration from one, or both, metaphors.
