What could I try

What could you try for the first time?

For the first time?

So many things like food I haven’t tried them all so I would love to travel the world and try all the different foods.

And also maybe skydive for the first time

Swim with dolphins for the first time and so much more. If only I could, that would be great

What principles

What principles define how you live?

Define how I live.

Treat others how you want to be treated

Is one I live by for I always try to be kind no matter what for life is too short to be mean.

I feel so much joy being kind and nice to others, sometimes I may be quiet but that’s just my part of being shy.

I want the people who come into my life to feel good, and I never know if I’m the only one treating them nicely. I would hope my kindness helps them on their worst days.

Poetry

I can’t

Just give up

Because I know if I do

It’s going to haunt me for the rest of my life.

The would and could have done that will be on my mind rolling around and teasing me into the end of time.

It will be worse than being bullied and losing my voice.

It will be a never-ending torture that only I can end, so I know I better not give up, for tomorrow is not promised, so today, I will make the most out of it now and hope for the best.

What

What have you been putting off doing? Why?

Have I been putting off doing? And why?

I have been putting off doing social media posts on Instagram and TikTok for my books because I tried to do that and other things all at once.

This led to me burning out a couple of months ago, and now I’m focusing on one project at a time. And once I’m done with the one I am currently working on, I will go back and finish working on what I have put off.

I know that doing one thing and putting my all into it is better than trying to do three things and getting none done, for I give up at the end because of being overwhelmed.

When

When was the first time you really felt like a grown up (if ever)?

Was the first time I really felt like a grown up?

When I had to apply for health insurance, manage my money, and pay bills.

Every decision I had to make was truly mine to make, and if I didn’t make it, no one else could bail me out.

If I

If you had a million dollars to give away, who would you give it to?

Had a million dollars to give away, who would give it to?

To my family and friends to help them live a lot less stressed out life.

And I would give it to animal shelters so fewer dogs and cats who are abandoned can be taken care of and live a long.

Also, I would give some money to the 18 literature charities that help teens and children get access to reading more books.

What’s something

What’s something you would attempt if you were guaranteed not to fail.

I would attempt if you were guaranteed not to fail.

Um, leave my job and write full-time.
