Sometimes, we go through something we cannot talk about. Something deeply private and painful. I want to share what I have been through, but it's not entirely my story to tell. To some degree, it is entirely mine, but I'm not selfish. Someone else has a vested interest in this pain, and so, I am … Continue reading Experiencing What You Can’t Talk About
Life
Awakened
A lot has been going on. Some good, some not so good. I tell myself there's a reason for everything, but sometimes you feel grief and you're not entirely sure where to place it. Was it a good thing? Was it a horrible, tragic thing? Ultimately, I came to the decision that it fucking HURTS. … Continue reading Awakened

Have you ever felt divinely guided in one direction, and maybe been afraid to jump? Or let me rephrase and say, were you overly cautious … Continue reading One State of Mind, and Uncontrollable Pain
In Order To Love Who You Are…
I've been struggling with this a bit. Mostly with who I am now, and how I identify. I don't feel women talk enough about how much we struggle mentally with different issues pertaining to how we relate and focus, or even how we challenge societal norms. I wish all of us were courageous enough to … Continue reading In Order To Love Who You Are…
Sharing
Despite having a handful of incredibly talented friends who are also writers, I don't share my process or progress with any of them. It simply doesn't come up in conversation, and I won't bring it up, except to maybe say I'm working on something new in passing. Several are maybe privately producing and not talking … Continue reading Sharing

“Life is fragile and temporary. The faces of today quickly become the faces of the past. Sorrow, pain, and anger… it all fades- except love. Love is forever and there after, even when we've fallen to our graves.” ―Lee Argus
