Who would have known I'd make it this far? Not me...
I can't help but gather a moments time, every now and then, to sit back and filter in with awe where I am versus where I came from... There's a memory forever existing in my brain, being in the hospital after 8 days in a coma from a cocaine overdose and over hearing the doctor tell my mother,...

Can someone explain to me why I shut down emotionally?
Honesty with oneself is sometimes a bitter pill to shallow. Looking back at most of my poetry I come to realize what the popular topic really is: Detachment, Hollowness, Emptiness, Numbness; truly synonyms of one another... I'm not one wanting to present tragedy all the time, but my writing is...

Have you seen the movie "The Woodsman"?
Here's an overview: "I know this is a controversial subject and will most likely not earn Kevin Bacon - or at least the movie makers - any good points with a lot of people, but I urge people to keep an open mind. Walter - Kevin Bacon - is released after 12 years in prison for child molestation. He...

"The road to hell is paved with good intentions..."
At our weekly work meeting today someone said, "The road to hell is paved with good intentions..." The more I thought about it, the more it made sense in one way or another. There's a huge gap between trying, wanting, hoping and wishing and actually "getting" it done. We all have good intentions but...

Why are people prejudice over gay relationships?
I understand in a way the whole against gay marriages "concept", but why unjustly judge parents in gay relationships when it comes to child bearing? It's a funny thing, I never before had the stability and peace of mind that I have today. My husband didn't provide me, or my son, any financial or...

In the process of trying to help...I was slashed opened
Opened, peeled and exposed.... There are certain things that are not pleasant to talk about, much less remember, but you do so anyways in hopes of helping the one you love gather the lesson learned... "One of these days I'm going to kill myself" she said repeatedly, going on about how no one...

Live and love as if it were your last day...
Many the times we hear the same words uttered over and over, but few the ones that actually remember to apply its lesson. Once in a while I catch myself rewinding back through the memories helplessly, and in doing so I fall on my feet figuratively with the realization of all the wasted time, wasted...

It's better to be happy than wise...
How many can agree with that phrase? Is ignorance bliss? Has anyone seen the movie " Sliding Doors "? I saw it last night and it threw me on overdrive. Having a glimpse of both sides of the coin, her life if she would have missed the train vs her life if she hadn't. It's funny how ignorance can be...

Comforting Sounds
Have you found yourself uttering "comforting sounds" to someone to shelter them from the pain striking reality? Saying things you don't ultimately feel to be true for simply avoiding confrontation or the reflection of something rather discomforting... Or have you been on the other side, hearing the...
