[Re]introducing… Untamed Melodies

January 23, 2019

As many of you probably saw on social media, January 21st marked ONE full year of blogging. Meanwhile, about a week and a half ago, a coworker asked me why I chose the word “melodies” in my blog name, since my name is Melanie. And for those OG Day Ones, you read in Introducing… Untamed… Read More [Re]introducing… Untamed Melodies

How Rejection Led to My Resignation

October 12, 2018

Many weeks ago, I wrote a blog on How to Nail Your Next Job Interview Through Mindfulness and Self Affirmation. A few of you asked me if I actually wrote and published a blog the day of an interview, instead of “preparing.” The answer is yes. I had applied for a job at a California university,… Read More How Rejection Led to My Resignation

When You Realize You’re An Inspiration, It All Becomes Worth It

September 18, 2018

Friday will mark 8 months since I launched my blog. And saying that out loud made me think to myself, “Wow, that’s about how long it takes a baby to bake.” Kudos to all those expectant mothers out there. I cannot imagine that all this time I’ve been growing and maintaining my blog, your bodies have been… Read More When You Realize You’re An Inspiration, It All Becomes Worth It

I Was Nominated for the Sunshine Blogger Award

August 11, 2018

When I was preparing to launch my blog, I created a Twitter account to help promote it when the time came.

"I've come to believe that there exists in the uni "I've come to believe that there exists in the universe something I call 'The Physics of The Quest' — a force of nature governed by laws as real as the laws of gravity or momentum. And the rule of Quest Physics maybe goes like this: If you are brave enough to leave behind everything familiar and comforting (which can be anything from your house to your bitter old resentments) and set out on a truth-seeking journey (either externally or internally), and if you are truly willing to regard everything that happens to you on that journey as a clue, and if you accept everyone you meet along the way as a teacher, and if you are prepared – most of all – to face (and forgive) some very difficult realities about yourself... then truth will not be withheld from you. Or so I've come to believe."
- Elizabeth Gilbert in "Eat, Pray, Love"

"Mondays aren't always bright.
Some days, you lose thе fight,
But life can be beautiful if you let it be.
Tomorrow keeps taunting you
With all kinds of mystery.
It's a blank page for your poetry
If you let it be..."
I've been MIA from social media for lots of reason I've been MIA from social media for lots of reasons [read: my mental health], but something that also helped was soaking up all the hugs and kisses (or "sugars" as he calls them) from this cutie last weekend. In a world that feels so broken, seeing life through the joyful and adventurous eyes of a child always provides perspective. Aunt Mellie loves you Weston. Stay wild and untamed.💛

Every birthday seems to come with new perspective and renewed understanding that life is fragile and fleeting, at best. My intention for this next trip around the sun is to be PRESENT. As Ralph Waldo Emerson said, "Live in the sunshine, swim the sea and drink the wild air."☀️

Life is a gift and I'm so damn grateful for the one I'm living and the people who continue to show up and love me along the way.☀️
