To The Readers


"For everything there is a season."

I started my minimalism journey nine months ago and this blog about six. I personally feel like I have changed a lot over the past year, but I still have a lot of growing to do.

I would like to read more books so that I can expand my vocabulary and communicate more effectively. I'd like to meet new people to connect and help broaden my perspective of the world. I'd like to take a path my feet haven't walked before to gain experience, growth and a deeper understanding of myself and those around me.

I've definitely enjoyed the last six months of blogging and I appreciate all the positive feedback I've received from it. Thank you all! With that said, I wanted to let you guys know that my writing will be going on a hiatus.

Its not due to writers block or lack of passion because I really have enjoyed writing; I love it! I find it to be very cathartic and freeing. But I also feel like I still have a lot of learning, questioning and discovering to do. For me to continue to write with meaning and conviction...

I need to be inspired.
I need to get out there in the world.
I need to live my life to the fullest.
I have to practice what I've been preaching.

Instead of just writing about life, I need to experience it!

So folks, this will be my last blog for a while. It may be weeks... It may even be months before I post again. I'm not specifying a time because honestly, that would go against everything my heart is telling me to do at this very moment. And I have to be true to myself.

I can't promise you much, but one thing I can is that once I get back to writing, I'll bring my A game and you'll get nothing less than my all! You have my word.

Until next time,

Cam.

Captive

Picture this... You sit in a locked prison cell, isolated. It's just you; no friends or family reside. You've been here so long, it's basically all you now know. It's home. One day, you hear footsteps walking towards your cell. They pause in front of your prison door. You hear what sounds like a set of keys jingling in their hands. Then a loud click rings through your ears, one that a lock makes as it becomes unlatched. The door swings open. The light from outside starts to engulf every inch of darkness that surrounds you. You cover your face because of your eyes' sensitivity to the brightness. Though you cannot see, you hear a man's voice as he says, "You're free. Go." Several seconds pass in silence. You don't move. Nothing happens. So he asks, "What's wrong? Don't you want to leave? Here's your chance." Although you don't possess much in your cell, you look around at what you do have... A pillow your ...

No Gifts

This holiday season, I want nothing. "Shame on you! Where is your Holiday spirit?" Before judgements pass, let me explain myself a little bit so that you can see where I'm coming from. First of all, I'm not angry. Nobody hurt my feelings. No one has me upset. And despite what some of you out there might think, I'm not trying to be a Scrooge in any way. This isn't my attempt to wage a war on Christmas, even if the media tries to convince our entire country of this so-called attack every single December. Last year it was Starbucks and their holiday cups and the year before that I believe it was Target. Heck, this year media platforms may even try to attack McDonald's because of their ball pit. I mean come on, it is a direct mockery of tree ornaments, am I right? Not wanting gifts doesn't stem from having a lack of money or a case of just me being broke . Thankfully, I still have enough in the bank to purchase new items for each of my family ...

Why Wait?

"One day: 2 of the most dangerous words in the English language." - Joshua F. Millburn You pretend you are invincible. You live as if there's a tomorrow. You procrastinate. You postpone. You take almost every aspect of your life for granted on an daily basis. You lie to yourself using phrases like "someday", "one day" and "later on". Why? Nothing in this life is promised to us. Nothing is permanent. And all three of those terms above represent an illusion of the future that is non-existent. You think time is on your side? You think he's your best friend? Well, I am sorry to break it to you... Time has NO friends. Zero. Zilch. Your past is nothing but memories. Your future is only a dream. Both exist soley in your brain. The present, the here and now, this very moment is all you have. Once you face that reality and fully embrace it, you then come to the realization that every single breath is nothing short of extraordinary...
