Goodbye To My Lover
I am heartbroken. I am surprised that I can be heartbroken. It's been so long since I felt this strongly for anyone that I believed my heart was permanently calloused. It didn't hurt as much when my first serious boyfriend cheated on me, and it didn't hurt as much when I divorced. I didn't cry either times. I've always been cynical about love and romance. I maintained that Romeo and Juliet would have bickered if they had not killed themselves. Romeo may have had affairs while Juliet complained to her friends about his inattentiveness. Then I met Craig, and I fell hard. I didn't see it coming.

Madness
The person I used to be can never return because I won’t let her. She was naïve. She let her emotions dictate her life. She was explosive and reckless. She did her best, though, and I’ll forever respect her. But this new person that I have become came at a price that there is no refund for. Unimaginable loss. Tragedy. Pain. The lessons that I had to learn burned the old me alive. With no guidance or survival guide, the only thing left to do was transform. It feels like a lifetime has passed, a different time and place. But, if you look deep enough into my eyes, you can still see her weeping face. (Beauty in Darkness, by B. Vigil.)

How to Protect Yourself from Financial Fraud
The pursuit of financial gain is typically behind most cons, although some are more transparent about it than others. Scammers could try to convince you to pay for something you don’t need or ask you to put money into something shady in order to get their money. The majority of them, on the other hand, are designed to harvest information for the purpose of financial gain.

The Feminine Yearns to Be Fully Seen and Deeply Loved
Our yearning is — at the deepest, most primordial level —for God When a woman reclaims “her feminine”, she is being brought home to her Feminine Heart and original Innocence. She remembers her body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, and her identity is as a Cherished Daughter of Father-God. She comes home to her desire for union: a monogamous, sacred, complimentary, devotional, deeply blissful, lifelong (and also, eternal) covenant with her beloved (who is a reflection of Her Beloved who is God.) She receives the deepest truth of her Feminine Heart: That she is made to be Seen and Loved, body and soul — by God, and by a man of whom she is “flesh of his flesh” — as His one and Only.

31 years old and adult life sucks
I wish I could find some better sounds that no one has ever heard along with a better voice that could sing some of the words in the english language a whole lot better. I just wish that I had found better chords for my music than are not like anyone elses. I remember my English teacher saying that everything has to rhyme in poetry and especially in song writing.

Your Dog Doesn't Love You
Your dog doesn't love you. I know. That sounds harsh, but it's the truth. We, as humans have an expansive vocabulary that allows each word to have a unique set of rules and stipulations which must be met in order to comply with a word's definition. Words like joy, sadness, and love are all words that are easily applied to our fellow humans but are more difficult to apply to our furry friends.

Sometimes running away will bring you back to the beginning
Relearning these skills was like going back home, growing up on a homestead before it became cool, as my uncle likes to remind me. When I was young, the only thing I wanted to do was get a job in the city since the city was new and adventurous to me.
