Brick homes with stone walls, and tree lined streets, cool blades of blue green grass quaffed perfectly at our feet. We began a half dream there together, lying under a perfect tree, on a perfect day with perfect weather. Your smile speaks to me… to a place I can’t deny. A…

The Thing I Think and Don’t Say
This blog is about something real. Something so difficult the only way I am ever going to understand it is to write it out loud. Saying it out loud makes it real. This blog is not going to be easy to read. Even for me. In fact, stop reading it right now and forget youContinue reading “The Thing I Think and Don’t Say”
I need a Tourniquet I’m feeling a little too delicate
I have a confession
Sometimes I wonder about my life. Sometimes I think its possible I don’t know anything about anything. Sometimes I think the way my children look at me is justified in asking the question they don’t dare utter- “Honestly why did you do this to me? I’m sure I have regular parents somewhere.”

The Frailty
I’ll begin with a disclaimer, I’m a naive optimist with a guarded heart and an open mind. Im just now figuring out you didn’t mean it when you told me to “Seek and Ye shall find” I don’t know what to do. I’m going out of my mind. Maybe it would be better if IContinue reading “The Frailty”
When you Know More You do Better
And that is where I start my atonement. I didn’t understand the scientific principles of cause and effect yet. I was deformed before I was fully formed. And like a bad case of voodoo economics…. A history stuck on repeat. A little girl with a tear stained cheek. Perception distorted, facial expressions contorted. And IContinue reading “When you Know More You do Better”
