I’ve come to terms that not everything is as it seems. That I am okay with. What I don’t like is when I choose the stability within that mindset, and someone attempts to usurp it. Don’t you want me to be stable? Yesterday, my signal was terrible. It turns out, it was all over. I…

Lossless
Creating a looming distance between what you’re told and what you know to be true is insane. But I’d rather operate on my own wave length, than pretend that what I hear is normal, or worse. To act. I would descend in such a way, that I would strip myself bare from my own intelligence…
Entirely Up to You
Nothing is certain – perhaps more so that things are ever changing. Because of this type of evolution, it amazes me when someone has managed to stay in one place. However, I have done so myself and I suffered greatly for it. The mind can open doors, or barricade you in, it’s your choice. There…

A Spider 🕷️
Which animal would you compare yourself to and why? Intricately weaving my home. Trapping my food. Always near you, three feet in every direction…without your knowing. Intelligent. Adaptable. And will rebuild if my web is destroyed. Spiders are equalizers – they bring balance by killing off disease carrying pests. I admire them, as cunning and…

How Do You Find Time?
What is one question you hate to be asked? Explain. When I first heard the question, I laughed at it. But now it’s annoying, and I have many reasons as to why. I have always created, so I considered asking where I find time to be on the sly side. Perhaps I should ask how…
