Blind loyalty has to be without a doubt one of the most self-sabotaging and detrimental behaviors currently running rampant through our people like a pandemic far deadlier and inevitably more contagious than Covid-19. And no, I’m not just talking about aligning with the appropriate colors of your political party and affiliation, but in all aspects […]

Long Live Love

2020 has been a hell of a year so far, and one that has left me with an abundance of questions with very little answers, and if I may add, a sour taste in my mouth. If it is so easy to hate someone we do not even know based on appearance, why isn’t it […]

Khaleesi

Don’t make the mistake of getting burned by the people you allow into your life only to be used, abused, and taken advantage of over and over again. A lot of times, they don’t even make an SPF strong enough for the ensuing raging inferno and damaging rays the people in your life can exude. […]

Trust. 5 letters, a simple word, a resolute word, but a word that carries a ton of weight. Perhaps the only word in the English language which can take a lifetime to achieve, but only seconds to dissolve. It is the foundation to all relationships, romantic and platonic, and it is the basis to this […]

There is always going to be that one person who has your back, supports you, defends you, and won’t ever leave your side no matter what and that’s you. 2020 needs to be the year everyone learns to date themselves. It is the one relationship that will never waver, won’t abandon you, won’t make you […]

Alone We Persevere, Together We Conquer <3

April 23, 2018 Samantha Schell Family love, relationships, schellshock, triumph, victory

The words and phrases we associate with marital bliss sound something like ‘”for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, till death do we part.” But how many of us truly commit ourselves to a relationship in which this phrase rings true?
