Dating in 2024. https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/lenigian/episodes/Dating-in-2024–oh-no-e2mjf89 Here we are again, plunged back in the dating world. Only this time, I am doing it as a mom. Good Lord. You know, it’s funny, because I still have the same outlook as I did when I was in the dating world 10 years ago. The only difference is that […]
8/21/2019 Dear Baby, You’re not here yet. You don’t even exist. All you are, right now, is a bunch of unanswered prayers and unsuccessful science experiments. But one day, you will be, and for that, mommy did something big for you today. She bought you a house. It’s not much, it’s not big, but you’ll […]
Nobody is perfect. Especially not me. But one thing I pride myself on is not hurting people; not on purpose, at least. More than half the world takes for granted, the damage they cause, to people who have nothing to do with their issues. I’d like to think I am evolved from such pettiness, but […]
Relationships nowadays. They’re exhausting. You’re always wondering how many people the person you’re talking to is talking to. You’re always wondering how many messaging apps they have hidden on their phones. How many pictures of other women do they like or comment on? How many direct messages do they send or get or answer? It’s really […]

It’s been a while since I’ve tapped my feelings on the screen. It’s been a while for everything really. This year, this year has been one of the toughest, yet rewarding, years of my life. This year has taught me so much about myself-mostly about how afraid I am, but more importantly, how brave. It’s […]
Here’s what some conversation and self-reflection have sparked: I have never been so ready to finally give my love, my trust, myself to someone worthy and deserving. This world is scary, very scary, and there are so many disingenuine people lurking in the corners of our life, waiting to take all the goodness we are […]
Why is it that when someone pisses me off, I feel the need to write? I mean, is it the internal need to complain about everything or is it trying to find some rhyme and reason in this inconsiderate world? I’m mad. Mad. Mad. Mad. And what am I mad about you ask? I’m mad […]
I’ve never read the Bible. I probably never will. I can’t lie and say that I will ever sit and read any Holy Book cover to cover. It’s just not my thing. But what I do know is that I have a strong sense of spirituality, and I do not have any idea how to […]
I’ve been asked, on many occasions, whether or not I’ll get married again. That’s not necessarily a question one should ask a divorcee, but etiquette isn’t the topic for tonight’s scribble. As I sip on this chilled glass filled with pink moscato, I contemplate the thought of having another person rip me into shreds, in […]
