Most Mondays I post some bit of advice or motivation, but it can get quite preachy, and I'm not feeling particularly preachy today.

I struggled a bit last … Continue reading The One Where I Feel Like Chatting

Dear Mother Nature
Dear Mother Nature, How do you feel? Do you feel yourself dying? Are you scared of what we'll do? Or do you know something we don't? Do you think things will work out? I want to thank you. Usually on the list of volunteer causes you're not in my top 3, and I tell people … Continue reading Dear Mother Nature
Dear Whoever You Are,…
I hope this finds you well. I hope you're doing well. It's okay if you're not. That's all I want you to know: everything is okay.

Fear, Pt. 1
What are you afraid of? Monsters, spiders, heights? Not being able to wake up in the morning? I've often wondered what it'd be like to get in a car accident, or fall of the golden gate bridge. I'm not scared, I'm just not stupid enough to try. I have a life to live. Does death … Continue reading Fear, Pt. 1
A List of Little Loves

I. am. tired. You exhaust me. I'm trying to fight for you but it's almost like you're fighting against me.

The One Where I’m Trying
I fell on my butt last week, I'll admit it. I didn't want this to be my Wednesday post. I had a much better Wednesday post planned than the word vomit that is this introspective series, but unfortunately I stumbled a bit today, too, and I couldn't do it. I'll get that up another day, … Continue reading The One Where I’m Trying
