One difficulty I keep facing over and over nowadays is being separated from friends or people. This occurs in such a way that we all feel a bit farther removed from each other.

I have found a few things that have been working and things I could do to help myself grow. So here's to each new day. To discovering more about myself and to learning all I can. Feel free to follow my journey as I post my mistakes and new projects.
