- Things I’ve learnedAs 2022 drew to a close and 2023 blossomed before me, I couldn’t help but think of all of the things I’ve learned in the last two years. So I thought I would share some, in no particular order. – sometimes you are going to have to be the villain in someone else’s life, andContinue reading “Things I’ve learned”
- Dreams?Where do our dreams go when we wake? Do they fade away as something that never truly existed? Do they exist on some alternate plane of existence?

- Trauma and TerrorI don’t like to talk about myself. Mostly because my life has been a sad one, and I don’t want anyone to be sad or stressed while around me.
