Window or Mirror?


Hi there! Thanks for checking out my blog post!

Today I am going to be talking about a book I have recentley read called “Girls with Sharp Sticks” By Suzanne Young.  This book is about a group of girls going to boarding school.  The teachers and staff sheild the girls from the world and try to keep them from truly learning about the world they live on.  But soon the main character starts to interact with someone from the outside world, everything begins to get more dangerous from there. As the girls get older they begin to realize something is very, very wrong with the boarding school and they continue to uncover many more secrets.

The book was definetley a window into another world for me because I have never expeirienced such a strict boarding school, or one at all!  I also am not a teenager nor an adult, which all of the characters are. This was a very interesting book for me because it highlited some issued we have in the real world, I could relate to those because I have seen them in my actual life.  Though this book is fiction, many problems we deal with today are similair to some of the more subtle problems in the book.

After really reviewing this book thoroughly I think I can say that this was both a window, and a mirror for me.  The book in general is a complete window, but the more I think and learn about this book the more I can realte some of the dilemmas in the book, to some in real life.

Thank you so much for reading through my blog post! I hope you enjoyed, and have a great day!

Habit For Febuary!

 

Hi there! Thanks for looking at my blog! ☺️

 

In February, I am going to keep my habit the same and try more meditation! I am going to try to keep more consistency in February and make sure it really becomes a full on habit, something I know I have to do every day!  I really enjoy meditating and I might start doing it for longer periods of time.  I can’t wait to do more!

 

In January, I was doing meditation every day, usually for very short periods of time, but it still helped me find a sense of calm for the day.   I will try to continue doing doing what I did in January with some improvements!

 

Some  things I want to improve with my habit in February is making  it a true habit, and always having a certain time and a designated space to meditate.  Having that will definitely help me improve and know that I should be meditating every single day!

Thanks for reading my blog post through! Have a great day!🌻
