Lockdown

2020 has been an interesting year, to say the least. Six months ago this is not where I would have expected my life to be.  Though, I am sure most people would say that about this year. Never did I imagine I would be told to be bound to my house for over 2 months,

Reality

Normally, I hate it when people start a speech or writing with a definition. However, in this case, I feel it’s essential. Come back to this definition if you need to throughout your reading of this blog. Noun: reality- 1. the world or the state of things as they actually exist, as opposed to an

2020

Easter is my holiday. It has been for some time. I love everything about it—there is a sense of renewal the holiday brings with the day. I take the time from Mardi Gras to Easter Sunday, and even to Orthodox Easter (which is usually a week after American Easter), to examine my life to see

Perfect

I have never considered myself a Type-A personality. In fact, I am quite- Type-B. My space is a little messy (a lot bit if you ask some people), but it’s a clean mess if there is such a thing, and it doesn’t bother me. I know where everything is in my stacks of papers and

This is Me…

For some time the word enigma has perplexed me. Someone once told me I was an enigma. So, in typical Morgan fashion, I had to find out the meaning and origin of the word. I love words, and I love researching them. I looked enigma up, and the word means to be a mysterious person.

Dr. Imposter

In the next few weeks, I will be changing my name. Not because I will be getting married, but because I will have earned the accolades to become Dr. Morgan Laine Lehman. I have worked hard in the past few years, especially months, to earn my degree and move on to the next stage of

60 Days…

60 days…seems like very little time, but also seems like a lot of time, depending on how you look at it. Days seem to pass slowly, but before you know it months, weeks, even years have passed. Have you ever heard the phrase that you can make or break a habit in 21 days? Harvard
