When Love and Hope Perform Modern Miracles
A realization has hit me, especially recently. A belief that I hold true but know with my all. We have come to hand our own souls and livelihood to others.

The Pursuit of “Impossible” Dreams
Many people know well of my pursuit of my dreams.It is not an attempt to somehow prove my worth to the entire world. It is for MYSELF. I spent most of my life in a state of misery and did not feel as though achieving anything at all was possible. At age 23, I found… Continue reading

Finding Inspiration
I have found inspiration and love in unexpected places recently. It is not coincidence for me to have begun writing again recently.I have always been a writer. Since childhood. At some point in my life: I lost courage. To speak. Because I didn’t believe I had a voice. Because I felt invalid. Because I believed… Continue reading
