Mardi Gras?

It's the end of February. It's Mardi Gras. Tomorrow is March. One more month in this quarter (which quarter depends on your fiscal year). What the hell. Top of mind? Exasperated that I gained my weight back (wtf, self). And tomorrow is the beginning of Lent. First off, I don't remember the last time I was a serious Catholic. But this is a great time to practice some restraint and contemplate giving something up. What would it be? Social media? (Facebook is the main culprit) Carbs? Sugar? Would I eat clean for 40 days? Also, if it's Mardi Gras, does that mean I can indulge in something? What if I'm not hungry for it. So many random thoughts.

Selfish vs. Selfless: Post Valentine's Day Blurbs

Some may define "selfishness" as a vice, while others may define "selflessness" as a virtue. How altruistic, after all, to put your needs aside for others. Altruistic or stupid? Whoops, there goes that lack of a filter again. Valentine's Day is all about showing affection to the true love in your life, whether it be your significant others or close family and friends (wtf, "Galentine's Day.") But what about showing love to yourself? And why should it just be restricted to a single day? Self love, or being selfish, is necessary sometimes. I truly believe in taking care of yourself first and foremost, before helping others. This aligns with my current resolutions. More blurbs another time...
