A journal from Bol, Croatia




Im sitting on a roof top writing this blog, drinking a glass of local white wine. My past few days here have been spent on a tiny island called Brač enjoying myself. I just met one of the hottest French guys I've ever seen, my life feels like a movie.


I left Split a few days ago because I had a falling out with the company I was working for. The past two weeks I've felt everything honestly.


I was happy to explore this amazing country but also I felt like I wasn't doing a good enough at my job. I was working for someone who made me feel really discouraged and it started affecting my mental health. I've learned to not stay in a place or environment that makes you feel like shit about yourself so I left.


Thank god I did.


As much as I was sad, it was the best decision for myself.

I stopped writing to eat my dinner but i'm finishing this journal sitting by the beach drinking a beer. Honestly what's new.. thats one of my favorite things to do in life.


This experience has already taught me so much.


It's taught me that although I may care too much about what other people think, I know my self worth. I don't have much time left here on earth. I mean.. I do but life's short. Anything could happen at any moment and thats just the way I like to live. Everyones clock is ticking whether we like it or not so let's be real here. We shouldn't spend the short amount of time we are gifted on this earth being unhappy. This rule applies to friends, family, and even relationships. Read that one more time please.


Why do we spend so much time caring about what others think. Chances are you will never see these people again, and even if you do... they probably aren't spending their time thinking about what you've done. Chances are the dont even care and will forget whatever happened in five minutes.


I've also learned how important it is to surround yourself with people who make you happy and want the best for you. Dont spend it around people who are going to belittle you or judge you. If the people around you make you feel like shit.. odds are you're always going to feel like shit until you remove yourself from that situation.


On a positive note, something I've learned.. or should I say was reminded is to really go with the flow in life. Trust the process always. The universe really does have your back even though sometimes you might feel like your back is against the wall.


I've loved living with no routine these past few days on the island. Not knowing what ill be doing or where im going. Being open to whatever. It's a truly great way to live and im so grateful this has been my life for the past few months.


I've been enjoying the moment and being more present, even though ironically my job title has be "content creator" the past few months.


For the first time in a few weeks I feel like I've been back to the Taylor I know and love. It's crazy how being in shitty situations or environments takes that away from you.


All I can say is everything happens for a reason, good or bad.


Embrace it... Accept it.. Enjoy it baby.


Gonna finish my beer now, until next time -T
