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

My Hawaii

If you haven’t gathered the intel yet, I’m from Hawaii. When people find out that I’m from the islands the one question that they always ask is, “Why? Why did you move away?” Well, if you asked me six years... Continue Reading →

How High?

I grew up with the notion that marijuana is bad and wrong in every sense of the word. I grew up with the idea that intaking marijuana in any way was forbidden. I grew up with the idea that hanging... Continue Reading →

Mighty King

The Lion King came out when I was in elementary school. I can remember watching that movie over and over and over again. I can still recite the entire movie and sing along with the characters as they venture through... Continue Reading →

I Am…

Tonight I had severe writers block so I reached out to a friend for some inspiration. Okay, to be fair, I actually asked her to write it for me because I was completely blank. She came up with a “Dear Blog”... Continue Reading →

Bumper Cars

Alex and Sierra. Ever heard of this duo? Well, they were the winners of Season 2's X-Factor. (And don't judge me for watching reality music shows because like they're fun to watch) When they first burst on the scene I... Continue Reading →

Memories of Good Times Together

As I sit here listening to the live local music of Hawaii I reminisce of my "hanabata days" growing up in Hawaii. I can see the cousins running around my mama's yard while my dad is bbqing with his guitar... Continue Reading →

Become Legendary

For as long as I can remember I have had this burning passion for basketball. I don't know when it started. Or how it started. I just know it has always been a part of me. Basketball gives me this... Continue Reading →

No Expiration

Your dreams do not have an expiration date. I know this because I believe this. You see I have always been a dreamer. Always wanting something that was out of reach. Maybe that’s why I’m so different from my family.... Continue Reading →
