Trying to Make Sense of It All

Posted on September 19, 2014 by Dana

I’m happy with some parts of my life right now, and I try to be grateful for what’s good in my life. But there are other areas where I’m very dissatisfied. I’m not trying to throw myself a pity party. I just keep feeling like maybe if I write out what I don’t like and […]

A Fork in the Road

Posted on July 5, 2012 by Dana

Sometimes procrastination isn’t an end in itself. Sometimes it takes some time to realize why we’re putting off something in particular. Take, for example, my license. I’ve been in Texas two years now for graduate school and planning to stay for another year to save up money before I move and develop more long-term plans. […]
