I’m not a hopeful person. At all. I don’t expect anything good to come to my life. I have a hard time accepting compliments. I don’t believe there is anything in the world for me but what I make for myself. I have trouble understanding why people even bother with me. Truthfully, most people don’t […]

Any good day I have is, invariably, followed by a bad day. It seems that the two are paired and cannot be separated. Anytime I have a good day, I sigh and tell myself I shall make the following day pleasant – though I fully expect the next day to bear terrible fruit. I cannot […]

If you know me in real life, or even if you just know me online, you know that I love nature. I, quite literally, cannot survive in the world without some connection to nature. When I stay inside for too long, I become anxious, angry, depressed, and then overwhelmed to the point where I become […]

Independence: freedom from the control, influence, support, aid, or the like, of others. Do I have this? Financially, I’ve been largely independent since age 17 (well, somewhat so since age 15, but still lived at home).

Internally, when I feel myself begin to get too attached to someone or something, I automatically shut off those feelings because […]

Friday is supposed to be the most relaxing day of the workweek. Not today, I’ll tell you. I am feeling so frustrated and upset and impotent, like I can’t do anything to help anyone and everything is going to implode. Why the hell is everyone so afraid of life? Why are we so afraid of […]

I am feeling confused today, though about what I am uncertain. The feeling in my head is a jumbled feeling, as if there is something I am upset about and something I’m not upset about that are warring in my mind. But, I do not have any feelings of upset in my heart. I am longing for the […]

I am feeling very thankful that I am alive. This morning, I read about a very sad situation – a young couple in love, separated by death. They met, they fell in love, they were happy together. The young woman, though, was stricken with an incurable disease. The young man, knowing his beloved would soon […]

Today started out as ‘one of those days’. I woke up late, stubbed my toes in the dark, couldn’t find any clean clothes to wear, fell down the stairs wearing only my underclothes, dropped a box of unwashed vegetables from my garden all over the ground, stepped on the one rotten potato in the box […]
