A Safe Place to Land- Sara Bareilles When holding your breath is safer than breathingWhen letting go is braver than keepingWhen innocent words turn to liesAnd you can't hide by closing your eyes When the pain is all that they offerLike the kiss from the lips of a monsterYou know the famine so well, but… Continue reading Is it a proud privilege?

Hey there. Happy Monday - the best day of the week to delve into the last bit of our discussion from last week. What is the last part of all of that jazz? First of all, it’s not the very last part but just the remaining part I want to address for now. Okay, okay.… Continue reading Getting Lost- The Finale.

Hey there. Happy Friday. I know this may feel like an overdone moment for you but I want to talk about the feelings related to connection just one more time. Or one more time for now at least. I think it’s important to revisit because I’ve spent too much time in my life attached, too… Continue reading Getting Lost- Day #4.

Hi. Thanks for coming back. Apparently I got REALLLLLY lost because I was completely MIA yesterday. Sorry. Lots o' stuff going on in the world and I was distracted. Anyway, I know my words from the other day are difficult to stomach. When I’ve been handed a load of shit in life, I can’t stand… Continue reading Getting Lost- Days 2 and 3

I was going to post something I had already written. I was going to continue my previously explored subject matter. I want to do that, but I want it to be tomorrow.

Before you predetermine that you are not one of “those” people, perhaps you will give me a moment to explore the concept with you.… Continue reading Getting Lost- Day #1

The thing is, you can generally tell whether… Continue reading The Week After- Day #5

“Daisies” When did we all stop believing in magic? Why did we put all our hopes in a box in the attic? I'm the long-shot I'm the Hail Mary Why can't it be me? They told me I was out there Tried to knock me down (knock me down) Took those sticks and stones Showed… Continue reading The Week After- Day #4

The song I’m going to talk about today is perhaps my favorite song on the album. It didn’t just feel like a song for me. It felt like an anthem. It felt like a calling card. It felt like an invitation to sing and dance and celebrate all the surviving I’ve done over the last… Continue reading The Week After- Day #3.

Hola. Welcome to NOT Monday. I was talking to a good friend about some of what I’ve been battling with lately and I said “I know it’s not the end of the world, but it feels really shitty.” If I was really owning what I’ve been feeling, I would say “shit, I know it’s not… Continue reading The Week After- Day #2
