Baby & Mama Wellness

Art history used to be my passion. I was talking to Amir yesterday that I had such passion for art history during community college. I was excited to go to class. I read articles after articles about anything and everything having to do with art. I bookmarked over 50 websites that related to art history that I found fascinating. I was truly bursting with joy over it. 

I don't know where that passion went. 

Passion is necessary. Passion brings success, positivity, and fulfillment. Individuals can be passionate about anything from food to neuroscience. It doesn't have to be anything huge either! Anyways, I've lost my passion for art history, but I have gained a new one. Since I started dating Amir, he opened up a passion in me for health. He's a pretty healthy guy, and I admire him so much. He takes apple cider vinegar shots! Even though it is so gross! But all for health ;) I adore him.

So I have been reading and reading and reading about holistic health. I love it! It makes me so happy. I love learning about natural remedies and eastern philosophy about health. I love knowing that nature can heal us all. Recently I've been reading a lot about baby & mama health! I hope to be a mom one day so I love learning all about this! The world has enough toxins already and I want to protect my child as much as possible (without, you know, being too helicopter-y ;) All this information is so important and it makes me really happy! I want to learn and educate others and maybe this is my new passion! Holistic health in general is my new passion, but I baby+mama health is one step above ;) 

The Beginning

Keeping track of my ever-changing thoughts is really important for me. I have a million journals that I can never seem to finish because of my inconsistency and laziness. I have wanted to blog forever, but I realized that I need to blog for me. To keep as a journal. So that is what this is. To keep track of my dreams, adventures, feelings, etc. So I am starting this on the 15th of April on 2015 and I hope to keep it up.

Where I am right now: 

I am currently on my last year of my undergraduate career at UCLA. I am an art history major, with a minor in Digital Humanities. I work at the UCLA Law Library and have been for a little over a year. I am very dissatisfied with my major, but feel some accomplishment and gratitude for my minor. I think I want to be a librarian. I'm not sure. Since I feel so dissatisfied with my major, I doubt I'll pursue anything in the arts. I sound so dismal right now. But I am in a happy place right now.

I am young (23) and I have time. I have the resources. I have the capacity. I can do whatever I want. Right? Right. This week I want to jot down my dreams. That is something I really want to focus on. I need to find my happiness. Today a co-worker told me she has made a list of her dreams, and everyday she thinks, "Am I doing something today that will eventually help me accomplish my dreams? If not, I should be." I thought that was so inspirational. We all have dreams, some small and some large. We SHOULD be doing things every day to help accomplish them!! That is what I'm going to do from now on. Chasin' my dreams..a step at a time.
