To My Sister On Her Birthday

 To my sister,

To the outside world, we are fundamentally different. You’re the one who prefers staying in, getting up early to be productive, and running for actual fun. You can’t sit through a movie, you hate physical affection, and love your bed more than anything in the world. We’re opposites in every way.

Yet, you’re my other half. You’re the one that makes me laugh more than anyone, the one that makes me strive to be better more than anyone else, and the one that has been there for me more than anyone else.

You’ve worked harder than anyone I know to get to where you are now. Your tunnel vision when it comes to your goals is to be admired. When you set your mind to something, you will work the hardest to make sure you get there.

You’re the most loving person I know. You may not show us with loving words, daily hugs, and bringing us a fork when you get yourself one but with thoughtful gifts, well-curated TikToks sent to us, and Spotify playlists for every situation.

I am so proud to have watched you grow over the years. You’ve become wise, dedicated, and passionate about what you do. I cannot wait to see what you’ll do next.

Happy Birthday, Brianne. I’m so lucky to have you in my life as my best friend.

 Is fall not the best reading season? I’m so glad I’ve had a few opportunities to sit on the front porch, wrapped in a fuzzy blanket with a hot drink and my book. Right now, it’s raining outside and all I want to do is cozy up and get back to my book. I’ve read some great non-fiction in the past six weeks. I’m learning so much about how people relate to the world around them. That is so important to me. Check them out! The Reason I Jump: The Inner Voice of a Thirteen-Year-Old Boy with Autism – Naoki Higashida – 4 Stars         This is a very short book that I think everyone should read – particularly those who work with children. Although knowledge has come a long way, there is still so much more to be learned about autism. This book is a series of question that Naoki Higashida answers from his point of view. Interspersed is also a handful of short stories from Higashida’s point of view.         It’s an i...

Book Review- A Treatise On Shelling Beans by Wieslaw Mysliwski

So this book took me way too long to read. I read before bed to shut my brain off, but I was so exhausted all summer that I was asleep as soon as I got into bed. It has been a long time, but I finally finished it! I took a good handful of quotes that sparked my thinking, so brace yourself! And if you’re interested in the tradition summer, you can find it here . 1.        When people can be divided by something they always will be (9). Just think-the only thing that really divides us as people are differences. If we see someone who is a fraction of a fraction different than us, our minds consider it division. Why is that? Why must we let things get in the way of relationships?   2.        All the more because if you ask me, these days the soul is a commodity like anything else. You can buy it and sell it, and the prices aren’t high (28) A popular book genre of the modern era is “self-help.” Lumped with that...
