Hello, I’ve decide to change how I post.

I’m currently in school studying neuroscience. I graduate in December but I have no plans for work afterwards. And the truth is, I don’t want to work. I would much rather marry a man who can provide for me so I can have seven children that I homeschool and spend all my time with. Looking back I wish I had just followed my gut and not gone to college immediately after highschool. I didn’t know what I wanted to do and I felt pressured to make the right decision.

I’m passionate about creating art, finding new ways naturally heal and maintain my body, travelling to new places, building a family and a garden, and finding peace within myself. And even with all of these passions, I havent spent much time nourishing them. I thought that I had to go through school and get a job first in order to spend more time doing those things and enjoying my life. I now know that it isn’t so straight forward.

I struggle with anxiety and depression. I lack self-confidence and faith at times. But I don’t have to. And I think much of the reason I do struggle in these ways is because I don’t put enough time into those passions. I pressure myself to be someone I’m not instead.

I want to live my life differently than I have been. I want to be more present. I want to commit to the health of my body and my mind. I want to be grateful for every moment. This page is an attempt to help me fulfill that goal. If you’d like to follow along or maybe even do it with me, I’d love to have you. by @_mpdal_
