Day 4 of Quitting
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe it’s better to go through life a little buzzed… this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and I’m going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (‘this’ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.

"I Peacefully Release Whatever Doesn't Serve Me."
In a world full of hate and division, here is a tiny reminder that the load of the loathe ain’t worth it. We saw a public execution of a man that spews separation die by the very words he lived by. It’s sad and a shame no matter which way you spin it. Holding on to hatred does not serve anyone’s higher purpose. There’s no way to ascend while wearing the concrete slippers of ill intent.

Why I Celebrate Day of the Dead
Day of the Dead, also known as Dias de los Muertos, honors our loved ones who have passed on. As a lover of all things Halloween, October 31st has always been my favorite holiday. Yet beyond the tricks and treats, costumes, witchy, ghoul, and goblin vibes, ghosts of another sort took on greater meaning in my life in 2023. Now each year a celebration of one day becomes three, extending to November 2nd honoring lost family members, specifically my aunty Sue.

NO BOUNDARIES, NO CLUE
See that kite? Flying free and easy through the clouds, pushed this way and that by random puffs of wind. That’s me. Upon deep examination of my convoluted and tortured path in life, I’ve realized I have no boundaries and no clue where I’m going or what I’m doing.

When Love Isn't Enough
The most painful breakups are not the ones where betrayal or cruelty or fundamental incompatibility of character makes leaving obvious and even necessary for self-preservation, but rather the ones where you still love the person deeply and completely and they love you just as much, but love alone cannot bridge fundamental incompatibilities in life goals, values, timing, or core needs that make a sustainable long-term partnership impossible no matter how much you care about each other. Walking away from someone you love because you recognize with terrible clarity that staying will make both of you progressively more miserable requires a kind of emotional maturity and self-awareness that many people never develop, because it means accepting that good intentions and genuine feeling and even extraordinary compatibility in many areas are not sufficient to make a relationship work if you fundamentally want different things from life, and that sometimes the most loving thing you can do for someone is let them go to find what they need even when it breaks your heart and leaves you questioning whether you will ever find that kind of connection again.
