If there was a part of me that I did not know existed but could not live without, how would I go on when it is taken? There is a part of me that exists in the world separate from myself. We are in two worlds that can not come together. But then there’s this….

broken. battered. bruised

I remember thinking as a child that my soul was trapped in the wrong body. I could not break free no matter how I tried. Only in my dreams would the way out be revealed. But just as I was about to take that step, open that door and cross that threshold, POOF!! I found…

Concrete Message

The most incredible thing happened to me. Something that has never happened to me in my adult life. I fell. On the street and on my face. I fell. Hard. Hard enough to have a massive egg-sized bump on my forehead, a swollen lip, a broken finger and three cracked teeth. I can still feel the…

My Well(ness)

A recent article claimed the world is sadder and angrier than ever. I don’t know if this is true or not. I don’t know if people are sadder and angrier. I just know that I don’t really care. I’ve reached a point of being beyond wanting to deal with everyone else’s issues. I am not…

Quiet, please!

I turned off the noise and found… JOY!    

Here … and Nowhere

I’ve got that feeling again. And I’ve had to check myself and remind myself, again and again, that I am not my thoughts. I am not my thoughts. I’ve been sinking deeper and deeper into myself. Deeper into the place where I believe I truly live. I used to go there regularly and at will….

What I Say

Some years ago, a neurotic mess of a manager accused me of telling people what they want to hear. This came after she spent the better part of the morning trying to figure out what was wrong with the computer and concluded that I must have done something to it…intentionally. All she had to do is…

Bring the Pain

2019. The world is insane and going to hell in a hand basket. So it’s been said. It would be so easy to jump on the bandwagon of how troubling the times are in which we live. Too easy. The problem with that is the necessity to stick to a few chosen areas of agreement…
