In 1989; i was using…alcohol more than drugs. Many nights, i’d split a 12 pack with Mr.X and on more than one occasion, i polished one off by myself. Nobody ever called me an addict then…but it certainly runs in my family; we are a clan that self-medicates…that gambles…that overeats. i’ve lived the chaos that … Continue reading

i can’t be right for somebody else
i stumbled across this on pinterest and was about to pin it when i stopped dead in my tracks. Sometimes you have a moment when the gears catch… and you are forced to flip something on its head and see it for something altogether different.

Yellow-bellied bat

open mind for a different view
I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams. W.B.Yeats i just caught sight of His picture on my phone and it took me to a quiet and warm place instantaneously.

Finding the in-betweens
i’m trying to work on my all-or-nothing thinking. i want so very much and when i want it, i see it as i wish it to be… perfect in its own way. When i want to give… i see it the same way… in perfection. Life isn’t perfect and neither am i… and when things … Continue reading
