So you love him, but you don't trust him? You'll share your body with him, but you won't let him into your innermost thoughts? You say he's different from the rest, and yet you still compare him to every man who's hurt you? How does that work? I know the first few lines insinuated that it's women … Continue reading A Personal Look at Insecurity

Letting Go of Baggage
The past is the past, right? It can't be changed, though it can be recollected. Memories are all we have to link us to our history outside of whatever physical consequences we managed to carry into the present. Tangible or not, it doesn't matter. A past is something we share with everyone and no one. So, why keep … Continue reading Letting Go of Baggage
The Power of Submission
When I was a little girl, I remember seeing my mom working in the kitchen almost every night putting together a meal for my then stepfather. She'd cook, fix his plate first, then mine and my brothers, and finally hers. Anything he needed, she got up and got. When it was over, he retired to...wherever. … Continue reading The Power of Submission
Blockbuster
Rest assured, dear readers, this piece isn't about the now defunct video store or any big budget summer movies. Nope, this is all about love. That type of love that slowly gnaws at your soul piece by piece until it's officially torn in half. Kinda like a Horcrux minus all the Voldemort. I'm talking about … Continue reading Blockbuster
The Plight of the “Good Man”

Let's get the obvious out of the way first. From the title you can probably guess that I … Continue reading The Plight of the “Good Man”
Fragile
You probably don't need me to tell you that trust is a fragile thing. That when it's broken after years of building on a foundation of vulnerability and reciprocity, you feel as though you can never again get back to that place of faith in another person. That's basically what trust is: faith in someone … Continue reading Fragile
That Moment When…
I had an epiphany a few moments ago. People suck. Wait - that's harsh and untrue. Not all people suck. But some sure as hell do.First things first: You can't make assumptions about a person and then punish them for your misguided perceptions. Try talking to them first. Understand who they are and where they're … Continue reading That Moment When…
Standing in Fear
I'm never one to put all of my business in the street, but I am willing to share this: I am afraid to fail. Where this random fear came from I don't know, but it's always been there, lingering in the dark recesses of my already overactive imagination. The infamous "What if?" question has been … Continue reading Standing in Fear
Walk in faith, …
Walk in faith, don't stand in fear.This is one of the hardest life lessons to learn, but so necessary.
‘Tis the Season… For Whaaa?
My deepest apologies to my followers, old and new. I haven't been writing much up here, thanks to my ever demanding job on the bottom rung on the retail corporate ladder. The fact that it's the holiday season doesn't help much. No. It definitely doesn't help. But that's why I decided to take a few minutes … Continue reading ‘Tis the Season… For Whaaa?
