The Comeback: Part 2

Wow, what an amazing response I received since I have decided to start blogging again. So today I wanted to talk for a brief moment about college. College was an extremely difficult time in my life. I struggled in school.. I got into an accident while I was in college that took such a long time to recover. I learned so much during my college years that I wanted to write just a little bit about three of them. 1. It's always easier to do it right the first time. What exactly do I mean by that? Well... don't just slap something together the night before a big project is do. If you're like me you will realize that you'll be moody the next morning from lack of sleep, mad because you know you can do better, and you won't get the best grade that you could have gotten if you had done it earlier. 2. Find your support systems. Yes, I completely understand if your support system isn't your family but I can promise you that there is someone cheering you on...

The Comeback: Part 1

Hello! I know that it's been forever, (2 years forever) since I've been on here. I'm not exactly sure what made me come back other than I pressed a 'G' on my computer and somehow some way this popped up and I started reading and realizing how real and raw I was. My hope is that I will continue writing I realized how many people I helped and because I do love it--it's comes easy for me. My plans are to have a couple of Comeback posts to get people reading again and because so much has changed. I cannot wait to tell you all about it! XOXO, Leslie Ann

#7daybreak

Whats up? If you follow me on any of my social media accounts then you already know what I'm going to be talking about today. If you dont already know I am a "mormon" and last week the president of our church challenged the youth to take a break from social media and focus on the important things in life that doesn't revolve around social media. Holy moly when I first heard about this challenge there was tons of thoughts creeping into my head...like tons...at first I thought "First off I am not a youth, so why try it?" "There's no way I can go 7 days without getting on social media, its how I make parts of my living!"  Truth be told, I kept my messenger app simply because my boyfriend is currently deployed overseas and that is the way we communicate for the time being. But alas I did it and I am soooooo happy to announce that I didn't die... ha! Believe it or not I actually enjoyed not having to constantly keep up with what other ...

This Goes Out to All My Peeps...

Hi everyone! I want to talk about something that has been crossing my mind every so often and I feel that I should speak about it. I'm not going to lie, life has been throwing me a lot of curve balls lately and I've wanted to give up. I wanted to throw in the towel and be like "you know what, I'm done..I don't know what the Lord wants of me and until He gives me a sign I'm doing nothing..." having those types of thoughts the last couple of weeks has been mentally and physically draining. I haven't been sleeping well and I haven't been eating as I should. One I recognized that I was again having these thoughts I began reading over different devotionals and trying to get myself on the right track again. It's been hard and there are days when I am not my confident/bubbly self but as I read my devotions I start to have my positive thoughts again and everything seems alright. I want to specifically talk to you because I've been p...

Us ladies have some unique gifts, that men don't have, and we need to be proud of that. So I'll say it again Happy Mother's Day ladies. XOXO, GFB

Shout Out To My Sister (an explanation post)

Yesterday, I posted a boomerang on my social media of my sister working out with some hashtags (#getfitnaturally and #nosurgeryneeded) I just want to explain why I chose those hashtags to those who have posted other things in a passive aggressive way. First off, you don't really  know the struggles that my sister has gone through. The fact that she has decided to make better life choices naturally and not go through with surgery IS  inspiring to me. I am so proud of her and the decisions she is making to better herself mentally, physically, and emotionally. Secondly, I have absolutely NOTHING against those who choose other ways to get fit. Let me repeat myself I have absolutely NOTHING against those who choose other ways to get fit.   I'm honestly proud of anyone who decides to change their lives for the better and I do realize that sometimes the alternate method is the only option left and I fully support that because I know that you are bettering yourself ...

Stop Regretting and Start Living

Hi All, I know it has been a few since I've posted but in my defense I have been working on some pretty epic posts that should be showing in the near future! -Anyways- Today I just wanted to write something quick and hopefully simple... I was looking on my newsfeed and I've been noticing all the negative posts...I know what you're thinking...it's there all of the time but today it just hit me... Why are we allowing the negativity to be filtered into our lives? Why are we not enjoying each day, yes we're getting older but AGE IS JUST A NUMBER.. Why are we allowing people to control our thoughts and what we believe? Why are we regretting and saying oh I wish I was 16 again, when I could eat an  entire pizza and still be a size 4  I'm here to tell you one simple thing: STOP REGRETTING AND START LIVING You only get this one life to live so live it. I know that it's easier said than done but seriously do it! Don't let the negativity of ...
