Transgression, Reflection, and Growth: Lifes Highs and Lows
The last 2 or so years have been an unplanned sabbatical from this space, my digital haven, where I once faithfully expressed my thoughts and stories. The silence wasn’t born out of a creative drought (okay maybe just a little) but a carousel of life events that swept me into a whirlwind of emotions and…

Just checking in….
Its been a minute since I’ve seen this interface let alone since I’ve written anything from the heart. I really hope everyone is well and handling the chaos that is 2020 with piece of mind and a little bit of understanding. Since its been so long ( a year and some change to be exact…

September showers
I’ve been waking up almost everyday this month to either light or heavy rain showers and it’s really effecting how I feel throughout the entire day. I’m not complaining, I do love rain but somethings clearly off. I typically don’t like September’s, the city crowds, kids go back to school which means my commute to…

Stage 1
So we meet again, but on a different platform this time around. I’m officially dumping blogspot and moving on to bigger and better things; I HOPE. Since I’m just starting school and summer is ending, I figured I’d start off new to kick “almost fall” off! If you’re new here and you’ve never read any…
