Do you believe in fate/destiny? I certainly don’t believe we were destined to work jobs until we die – I rather like to think our destiny or fate is available to us when we free ourselves from the invisible prison called society. But that is a play on words. What I believe is…you can shape…

The Horizon
Am I walking through a desert…or am I close? How to know? I think it’s a feeling you get. A pattern you broke. An inherited mess you cleaned without harming others. You realize you’re feeling things the way you did when you were free – like when I was 12. Everything was a daydream and…
Hard To Explain
What is the biggest challenge you will face in the next six months? To put simply, and not give too much away – patience. There is something coming, and it’s great. But it will require everything from me, just about. I am ready, but the moment isn’t here. So I have to wait. Waiting can…
Is This a Dilemma?
What do people generally believe sustains us? Is it working and shopping, or something unseen? Hi, I’m JCS, living proof that the system maintains nothing, and I maintain myself. You’re thinking…that’s impossible. I’ve done what I’ve dreamt of just about without breaking my back. Another store is closing near me. Forever21 is closing one more…

I know exactly what it looks like inside and out – high arching windows, stone, high arching ceilings, marble, granite. A spiral staircase, simple…elegant. But seemingly…
Old Hobbies
Are there any activities or hobbies you’ve outgrown or lost interest in over time? From the age of six, both of my parents taught me to sew, crochet, paint, illustrate, and introduced me to jewelry making. I stopped briefly, or made things occasionally…but I’ve just never stopped at all. I started writing when I was…
French Press
The most important invention in your lifetime is… Mr. Coffee and Keurigs are fine (Keurig mystery unlocked- use ground coffee…not filter packs 🤢) But a French press seems so…not American. Clearly, it’s in the name, and I have often found other fellow Americans unaware of what a French press is. My cafĂ© seems less tampered…
Make No Mistake
In January of 2017, I took my eldest and family to an art exhibit for Star Wars. It showcased the costume designs for the majority of the series at the time. On our way home, we intercepted protesters for a woman’s march. One women curtly asked why I didn’t attend. I told her because I…
