My original idea for this post began in May. At that time, I was struggling with body image issues and was proud of my new perspective. I never finished the post and instead of scrapping the idea, I decided to go a slightly different route. My confidence is on vacation. Why? One of the many […]

My walls came down. Old damages were repaired And bonds were sealed. New foundations were formed as Love and trust outweighed the fears. Safe, protected, and Surrounded by love. I found internal peace and intimacy at last. Bliss Sirens scream all around me and my blankets Are violently stripped from my body. The bomb goes […]
People’s reactions fall into three categories: emotional, rational, and mindful. Ideally, we should stay in the mindful state, which is having a mindset that is in-between emotional and rational. Unfortunately, my brain tends to gravitate to the emotion-based mindset. It’s killing me. Although I may be more in tune with my emotions than most people, […]
I belong to a couple of Facebook groups that are related to my profession. Lately, the posts in these groups are annoying me to the nth degree. The posts are usually clinical questions about where to find free Continuing Education Units, how to treat a particular disorder or use a therapy strategy, favorite apps, or […]
It’s the time of year where many people in my field receive their yearly job performance evaluation. Normally, this doesn’t bother me and I don’t put a lot of weight on the outcome of the evaluation; however, considering that this is a new job and it is the first job I’ve held since last year’s […]

There is a man in the apartment above my head Who moves like an elephant with feet made of lead. I imagined him weighing three thousand pounds With muscles of steel dropping bowling balls all around. It seems that he rarely sleeps. His constant movement awakens my Peeps. Doors slamming, bathtub running, and people laughing […]
When did pajamas become acceptable to wear in public? Men (yes, men) women, and children (not your fault, kiddos) have become victims fashion laziness. Fuzzy slippers, pajama pants, cotton nightgown tops with jeans, etc… people are wearing this to the GROCERY STORE! A person chooses to wear bedtime/lounge wear to the grocery store then gets embarrassed when […]
Thoughts are racing through my mind and interfering with my journey to the Land Of Dreams. I am restless. Ghosts haunt me once more, and as I lay here thinking of the numerous ways to exorcise them, I hear Your breath next to me. I become aware of the heat from Your body swaddling me […]
I found this meme on Pinterest, which inspired me to write this post. It takes a lot to drive me to the point where I lose respect for a person. I may disagree with an opinion or an action, but 99% of the time, I will usually treat them with respect. There are very few people […]
