February 2021 – The Warrior Within

Oops! I almost forgot to post my weekly post! I apologize y’all, I’ve got a couple notes in the works but I’ve just been a little busy with applications and all. Soo….I don’t have a written post this week again🙊🙈🙈.

BUT…. I love hiking and parks. There’s something so serene about being in nature and the wilderness that I truly thrive off of.

So I thought I’d leave you with a little picturesque scene from one of my nature walks last fall. Sighh, oh how I do miss the seasons when snow isn’t on the ground. (I think I’d be less salty if I had a working car to be honest)😅😬

(I also had to shovel my way out of my neighborhood this morning, just to get to work, because the snow plower didn’t come to our house this morning🤦🏽‍♀️. So that wasn’t making me like winter any more than I already barely did)

I have a private instagram where I document all my lil book reflections and selfies and silly photos with my friends, but I thought I’d bring some of the book reflections over here. Below is a reflection I wrote down in the midst of reading this book. I got to the end of the chapter and was so illuminated by it’s contents, that I quickly wrote down whatever I could.

As a privileged daughter of two doctors I’ve always been taught to behave humbly around others and constantly be aware of the privilege I have. And while I loved that lesson, I think I tended to mix it with this sort of guilt-trip; Where I’d feel guilty around my friends because I knew I had blessings and opportunities that they did not have. I felt guilty for just being me. But reading this taught me a lot about what one can DO with privilege instead of wasting time, feeling guilty for having nice things in life!
