Fear That Controls

There is nothing more daunting than a future decision. Knowing ahead of time that there will be a fork in the road is an all-too-common recipe for anxiety, overthinking, and stress.

We truly do not deserve all we have been given. Our minds wonder from one interesting fact to another, diverting our ever-shortening attention span until a diverse network of neural highways crisscross upon our brains… Our hearts flirt with danger, suspense, tragedy, joy, elation, and pride, leading us on journeys of every emotion. We craveContinueContinue reading “Wide Blue Yonder”

I wrote this at 2AM, sorry

Here I am again, staring at a blank screen, hoping something inside me can flare up with inspiration long enough to capture my muddled thoughts into words. Though, already, the page isn’t quite so blank, is it? There’re words there now. And look, more. Huh, maybe this isn’t so hard. Ok, let’s try talking aboutContinueContinue reading “I wrote this at 2AM, sorry”

Kudos

How many people do you think you encounter on a daily basis? Another question: how many lives do you think you touch in a day? Now, do you think the second must follow the first? Or can you have an impact on someone else without directly encountering/conversing with them? I ask this, as I haveContinueContinue reading “Kudos”

You for sure didn’t intendContinueContinue reading “Things Go Wrong”

Short essays I write in my spare time #1: Hope Knowledge is the ultimate truth. I knew in my heart that this feeling was false. How could I claim to know the secrets of the universe? I am only one brain. One pair of eyes. One soul in a sea of many. WhoContinueContinue reading “Essays on Thought”

ARE WE: Hurt &bitter Lovers? Rejected &hated Actors? Cut &scarred Comforters? Lost &wonderingContinueContinue reading “What is My role?”

Fire in the Waterfall

I stood before a glorious ravine, Asking myself if it was worth the fall. Trying to understand if this power and force, Cascaded with a purpose and a drive. Did it desire to be flung down the cliff side? Did it work it’s way through forests and creeks, To arrive at this place with aContinueContinue reading “Fire in the Waterfall”
