  • My Journal: November 11th, 2023

    Dear Me,
    Today has been one for the books! (Easily the best day of this year)
    There were so many factors that made this day extraordinary! What is most important though, is the fact I was able to unveil 3 new discoveries all in one day!
    For starters, I stepped outside of my comfort zone. Being in. Asheville especially on a Saturday, I normally go to the same places and restaurants downtown, but not this time. I tried a variety of different foods and drinks. For the food portion, my personal favorite had to be the Nashville Hot Tofu. For the drink, the one that stood out to me most was called the Green Monster. Not the energy drink, rather, a Boston Alcoholic drink. [since those discoveries I have now went pescatarian knowing there are stilll so many amazing and tasty options while being on a well balanced diet.]
    Further, the entirety of the vacation was a mother daughter bonding experience.when you bond with someone that means so much to you, you are able to really take a genuine interest and learn even more about each other. For the first time, mama said she viewed me as one of her best friends! Hearing that alone comforts my heart knowing I have finally achieved the relationship I have also longed for with her.
    Last but certainly not least…you found yourself Alexis! You found who you truly want to be in life.
    …….I don’t want to be just one thing. I want to be EVERYTHING I can be.
    Love🖤,
    Yourself

    • Aww Alexis this is so sweet. It sounds like a really fun trip and I am sure your mom would be so touched knowing what she and your relationship with her mean to you. I expect more great experiences with your mom to come. Thank you for sharing <3 Lauren

  • The Road I Am Walking:

    The Road I Am Walking:
    This road im on
    It’s a wild ride
    But I’ll keep riding until Dawn
    Pushing into being an adult
    I try to make wise choices so that I see the result
    Reminding myself daily it’s alright to be full of love
    In a sparrow world, I can continue to be a dove
    Confusing as it may be;
    I still desire consistency
    I choose to make myself proud and others as well, my improvements shall be loud!
    You will make it…
    I will make it!
    Telling yourself in the mirror so to your changes you must commit.
    The goals may change but the outcome shall remain the same.
    To believe in thy self
    But remain humble as to not put myself on the top of the shelf.
    Never let emotions lead the way, for going forward on the path is how it has to stay.
    I never fit in with girls my age, always dared to be different,
    But I have slowly learned that is actually magnificent.
    I was once told by someone looking into my eyes I would never be enough,
    Little did they realize that would allow me to rebuff
    To reach my potential and accelerate is what I choose to do,
    For my dreams I want to pursue.
    Seeing my patients pass away with the summer in their eyes,
    I remember their spirit flies.
    For God I shall live,
    For myself I have to give.
    I will not give up on myself again,
    That’s why I have this pen.
    The words I write,
    Pour out from my heart and I want to shine the light.
    Not only for myself but for all who choose to listen.
    My future I strongly wish to glisten

    Alexis

    • Alexis’ life is filled with so many roller coasters. But that doesn’t stop you because you’re a pusher. You never let anything get in your way no matter what trials or tribulations you face you kick the door down. I see that you desire consistency but to me, you already have that mindset because of your passion to push and not give up on yours…read more

    • This is so beautiful. There is so much wisdom is this piece.
      “Never let emotions lead the way, for going forward on the path is how it has to stay.” … I feel like I remind myself of this every day in order to stay focused on what I want in life.
      Anyone who ever tells you that you are not enough is simply projecting their own insecurities.…read more

    • Oh my, I love this. What an inspirational piece. You will inspire so many with this piece, and if anyone reads it and can’t see the meaning of it all, they have an issue. This is a very motivational speech for anyone, especially ones who have low self-esteem, or always feeling down about their life and/or always not feeling what they do in life…read more

    • You are so strong, I believe that all the negatives you heard was gods way of pushing you to be the best you. You dared to be different, you dared to be you and you’re clearly an inspiration to others that struggle with just that- being themselves. Thank you for sharing
