Refining Life's Ragged Edges

I seriously hate writing about me. What do you tell people? The customary who I am, where I'm from? Those are all well and fine but gets kinda redundant, doesn't it? If you want to know me, come read a long. I'm an open book - or at least try to be. I try to write a little about everything. I should one day find my niche, one day. I figure, if I keep writing eventually it’ll come. Mostly I write to help inspire. This world can be a pretty damn scary place to live in. The hate crimes. The sexual violence. The bombings and shootings. I want to be able to shed some hope. Even just a sliver. Something to help someone take another step in their day. I started this blog in the hopes I could help change a dark and hatred filled world. I'm not exactly sure I'm actually doing it or not. But, I'm trying. I also write to get the practice I need. Sometimes I’ll be sweet and awe inspiring. Other times I’ll show a bit of my true self with some dripping sarcasm and stupid humor. Then there are other times I just don’t make sense. Bear with me! When you come across my page, please feel free to leave me comments - about anything. Open forum. Open door. Open, open, open. I like having discussions about feelings (ya right) and hearing opinions of others about what I write. And other times, it’s just nice to know that someone out there goes through some of the same things I do. Thanks bunches in taking the time to stop on by! ~Pearls xoxo

Someday

I received a call from a friend I haven't spoken to in a bit. This friend was distraught at circumstances surrounding them and their special friend. Well, my dear friend, all isn't lost. I promise. What you are feeling will eventually... Continue Reading →

Change

I don't know if I know anyone who likes change. I sure as heck don't. But change is a must in order to find who you are and where your lot in life is. There is so much change in... Continue Reading →

Because Everyone Else

A coworker introduced me to this song and I have to tell you after a long and grueling day of crap this song was amazing to hear. So, when you just need to be and let the world know to... Continue Reading →

Auto Pilot

Nothing seems to work. It's like I'm stuck in some time warp trying to be the girl I used to be and the woman I want to be. How has it become so black and white? Who I was then... Continue Reading →

Just One Thing

I spoke on my other blog about the many different dreams that I have had and continue to aspire for. I guess you can say I am a dreamer. I always have a goal to reach, something to work toward,... Continue Reading →

For Good

I have met many people in my life. All of the people I have met have helped me become who I am. So, today, I want to thank you. This song is for you. I've heard it said that people... Continue Reading →

Reputations

When I began working at my place of employment I came in knowing nothing. It was my first time being an actual manager. I mean sure, I've been a supervisor of some sorts since I was 20 but a manager?... Continue Reading →

Turned Inward and Pushed Down

Saturday was the end of my 30-day blog blast. I haven’t written since. And, I miss it. A lot. Writing, good or bad, is who I am. So, here I am again writing. There have been so many things that... Continue Reading →
