Five Things I Started Doing That Enhanced My Life

Welcome Sistas!! I wanna talk about Self Discovery. Read, comment below, tell me what you think, and click the links to check out some suggested help when you're done!      During my Journey of self discovery, I learned that I knew nothing about Me. This sounds CRAZY, right?! I know you are thinking, "How can she not know herself?". Well, its true, I didn't. Simple questions like, "What's your favorite food?" and "What's your favorite genre of music?" would literally have me freaking out trying to come up with an answer. I truly started to understand the phrase "just living". I was "just living" out here in these streets, lol, with no guidance. I woke up. I went to work. I came home. I went to bed.
