Daily Diary, August 20, 2024

I am happy to say that as I approach the tender age of 31, I am excited to discover new things about myself. I am constantly finding things about myself that I like.

First, I love trying new things. Travel, food, going to concerts, I have always been a yes girl. I do not like spontaneous exercises but I am willing to go along for a journey pending I know of its arrival.

Second, as an empath, I experience other people's emotions strongly and often find that I am looking for new ways to improve myself. Frankly, I love myself more than anyone else, and I am continuously excited about my progress.

Lastly, I look forward to life. I look forward to finding what new victories I can achieve each day. I am excited to practice my stretching each morning, for my hot morning coffee. I look forward to spending time with friends, and I have a great job. I get excited that I get to create and innovate. I enjoy life and wish to continue so to the fullest of my ability.

That's it for today,

The Collector

Daily Blog

The weekend was a magnificent one. I worked, then did a stint at my local watering hole. Both times were wonderful, I can't remember the last time I had tears rolling down my eyes at the bar. It being my local watering grounds makes it easier to find good people to sit with.

I have learned a lot in the last while, I am gravitating towards my darker feminine qualities and finding that the men I am attracting are similar. While sitting at the bar two men approached me, both older, in their late 40's early 50's. He had dark facial hair and great eyes. He told me that I looked wonderful In my outfit, effortless and easy. The next gentleman bought my drink, he was a little younger, in his late 30s and balding, but nonetheless sweet and attentive.

Of course, I would love to be approached by unmarried men, but the married ones are the ones who don't care about the risk of rejection as they have a partner already. The men with something to lose will sit at the bar and stare across the way at you, leer when you get up to use the restroom but never approach.

Of course, we all want a man with Henry Cavill's good looks, Warren Buffett, size bank accounts and royal family lineage. So here is to the dreaming and the scheming.

X- the Collector.

Day Three of the Daily Blog

You can say that yesterday was a good day. I can't honestly tell you any highlights. I fixed my manicure, and I recently began giving myself manicures due to the expense, I figured it was cheaper to do my own than to pay $70/3 months.

I have become engrossed in romanticizing my life. Doing little things to add happiness to my day. Instead of grabbing take-out and coming home, I went to the park with my blanket and sat in the grass. Before going to work, I popped into the bakery and got myself a cookie- just because. I have become addicted to the little things.

Yesterday was Witchcraft Wednesday so I did my usual and had a ceremony with candles and relaxed, feeling the gratitude of life surrounding me. Waxing Gibbous at 81% as of August 15. A perfect time for self-reflection and allowing the universe to take away what is not needed.

Tata for now, I will make future posts more exciting.

Daily Journal, Day two

The older I get the more I wonder what it's all about. The proverbial wonder that we all have.

Strange, I always thought life would be different, but not if you continue to do the same things. My father is always asking when am I going to get married, or if I even have a man in my life. Honestly, it isn't for lack of trying- at one point. However, I live on a small island where everyone here is newlywed or nearly dead. It's a well-known saying on Vancouver Island.

This is going to sound bad, but I do not find West Coast caucasian men attractive. I find the "no I haven't travelled much," or "wanna grab a beer?" bro's all that stimulating, so the idea of searching one out to date sounds asinine. I find the dating scene here boring and uninteresting, so I have been using this uneventful time to square away some healthy habits.

Currently, I am relearning an old trick, going back into the world of online writing and blogging. It was once a productive outlet for me, so I feel resurrecting my old-fashioned blog, changing a few things and adding some others will push me into a new mental space for productivity.

Alas, this is the end of day two. I will allow you to get on with your day, thank you for reading.

Good Morning, Day one.

I think I will begin every morning with a little conversation with whomever is reading this and start a dialogue with, I guess you. I am 'becoming the better version of myself.' And I know it sounds cliche, but it is time. I am turning 31 in a matter of weeks and I have felt rather bored with life lately.

May I comment that I have lived a rather exciting life in the past. I have travelled to many countries, eaten many foods and even gone on some "once in a lifetime" experiences I can't even begin to explain. So I am not sitting here with the inability to do and be more than I am, I am just- stuck.

I live on an island, in fact I grew up on Vancouver Island, and for all its magic, it lacks in diversity and culture. The best part about living here on the island is the continuous outdoor adventuring- if you're into that sort of thing. But I am not, rather, I prefer reading in cabins and taking gentle walks through nature- magick wand in hand. I talk to mother nature slowly and pick blackberries as I stroll. There is no part of me that wants to be out of breath for any reason.

I will stop here for the day and allow you to get on with yours. Let's see how long I can take on this daily journal before my ADHD kicks in and I find a new medium.

Tata for now, a Collection
