I'm on vacation right now. One week in my true home- the college I attended far too long ago. The stresses, anxiety, depression are crumbling away and starting to leave me an actual human being again. I can breathe. I believe in joy. I believe in life, in God again, in beauty. In everything that... Continue Reading →
Anger
Ive never been an angry person. In fact, for most of my life I never got angry no matter what anyone did to me- just hurt or maybe upset but never angry. Now last night I caught myself calming myself down at work by imagining different ways to kill the person who made me mad.... Continue Reading →

An engagement which was a special kind of hell in the hells I have endured in my life.That is something I still struggle with is just how awful our engagement was-not him and I-but our colossally controlling and sometimes cruel...

The Yoga of Me
Yoga is doing something to me. Everytime I come to yoga class something comes alive in me, or maybe it doesn't come alive- maybe it just turns its head ever so slightly, like a sleeping dragon. I have not written here in so long. So much has happened. I moved back in with my parents to... Continue Reading →
