Life on A Page

No one prepares you for this. The mind though resilient, and majestic, is an enigma of delicacy. As I gather my thoughts about the current scene of my life, I am honest with the lack of knowledge a person faces when the mind is compromised. An individual is never prepared for the emptiness felt when […]

Finding Stillness in Cacophony

Congratulations on surviving the black hole of the past two years. As the world engages in the classic phenomena of denial and the world pretends that Covid never existed, I am brought back to the lessons learned from millennial ex “situationship” where we pretend the experiences of a finite time period are convinced to be […]

Gratitude: A Reflection

These days the only constant I can rely on is the soothing steam of the coffee provided by my Keurig. The days have all been blurring some fast, some slow. The momentary joy found […]

Faith and Hope: Tools of the Trade

Ride The Wave….🌊🌊

As the reality of 2020 set in at the height of quarantine, I had this fantastic idea to relive the goals of my youth and begin surfing. It seemed the only option as the overall connection with peers and quality of life as a 30 year old millenial continued to decline. The ocean has always […]
