Loss is a difficult subject for me right now. I constantly feel a dark cloud floating above me starting a few months ago that seems to either be a warning or preparing me for more darkness yet to come. I thought this year was going to be an improvement over the last 2, but after …
Short Backstory My best friend suffers from multiple chronic illnesses that cause severe pain, as well as, mental health problems caused by trauma and others caused by their childhood. Due to the chronic illnesses, as of right now, they have a date scheduled for physician assisted suicide. This is a small part of the letter … Continue reading Dear Friend
First This is a poem I wrote a little of, and is just a way of me venting my current life situation, while I was on break at work today. I hope someone sees it and remembers that they aren’t alone out there. Everyone is going through something, but we don’t always see that. I … Continue reading Dark Cloud
I apologize for not posting yet since the start of the new year, but it has been a crazy start to the year for me and, I assume, many others.

It’s New Years Eve and we’re only a couple hours away from 2022. It’s crazy to imagine that 2021 actually was only one year with everything that happened during it.

While it was only 14/hour, tedious, and not a job … Continue reading Re: Daily Page – Pick an item on your desk. Write its personal history.

I’m supposed to only go back and read through and check for typos and duplicates, but leave every idea intact as it is. The … Continue reading Attitude of Gratitude
One of my best friends is someone I met online when I was 11 years old.

Have you been keeping up with the people who mean the most to you?
When I was younger, I had a lot of friends at my dad’s place, my parents were divorced, that got into minor trouble.
