Hello! I hope you are all having a good day and feeling as well as you can feel right now!

How do you make impossible decisions?
So, for those who do not follow me on social media, my cat - the boy whose life I saved and the boy who has saved mine more times than I could ever attempt to count; the one who has been the one in the "it's just you and me, babe!" for 12 years - … Continue reading How do you make impossible decisions?
Juneteenth
"FreedomThe very time I thought I was lost, my dungeon shook and my chains fell off.Free at last, free at last. Thank God almighty." what beautiful words.

How Many Years …
I am sure I will write at least another post with this title. Maybe a book. But for now, all I will say is HOW MANY YEARS WILL IT TAKE TO FORGET YOU??I don't know. I'm not there yet. I wonder if I will ever be. *And all the obvious "you"s that could mean are … Continue reading How Many Years …
Nightmares Part … X?
So I have been having very strange nightmares over the last couple of weeks (basically since around the time my flu started). They are strange because they are about an ex-boyfriend with whom I still speak but do not REALLY still love, To clarify that, I love the OLD boyfriend, the one that I knew … Continue reading Nightmares Part … X?

There is already so much sadness and so many bad things we deal with on a daily basis - … Continue reading Succinct-ify THAT Sunday!

Wednesday Wisdom – “Righting Your Heart”
I have been sort of watching (in my "watching way" of leaving shows on while I am doing other things) this Netflix Anime called ピアノの森. It's a little goofy (the attempts at getting the "animation" of piano playing is VERY computerized, if that is a "proper" description), but there was just an interesting line that … Continue reading Wednesday Wisdom – “Righting Your Heart”
11 September
I do want to write something up about "9/11" or "September 11" or however you "call" "it." BUT it is crucial for me to do so TOMORROW. So for now, I just want to say that I remember and will never forget that day - I am sure all of those of us who were … Continue reading 11 September
One Minor Clarification
I have realized there might be a discrepancy between how I REALLY feel about certain topics, beliefs, "institutions," &c. and between how I have conveyed said "issues" here. I mentioned in an earlier post that I want to start "clarifying" these matters one at a time because, given the very idea behind this "blog," I … Continue reading One Minor Clarification
