Short Thoughts

  • The Quiet

    It’s late.   I take a deep breath.   In this quiet moment I let the tears flow. I prefer to cry alone.  I’m authentic in this moment. The fear is real. The moment is surreal. I feel gratitude for the moments I have left. “One breath at a time”  I say when it’s just

  • Low grade depression?

    I know the term low grade fever is used when describing someone having a fever that is not dangerous. I feel like these last few months I have had a low-grade depression, because I am functional, I go to work, I make an effort to be sociable for the most part. But the solitude that

    Seasons Are Changing

    If you are fortunate enough to live where nature reminds you of the changing seasons, you will likely see the leaves on the trees transforming into a beautiful array of oranges, yellows, and reds right about now.  I miss that now that I do not live in the Pacific Northwest.  Don’t get me wrong, I

  • Crazy

    I found myself sharing with someone that certain people in my immediate world bring out the “crazy” in me.  As I shared that with this person, it resonated within me as a truth.  However, as I reflect on that conversation I realize I do not want it to be my truth.  I do not want to hold or

  • I Too Am Aging

    During the last shut down in California, the Pandemic became real for me.  What I mean by this is I had seen it in the news, but had not know anyone personally who was touched by it.  However in January, an Uncle whom I had a fondness of passed from COVID complications.  Then, last week I had another

  • Random Fear

    I love music.  I love what it makes me feel.  I love how I feel.  I think it is a way for me to get lost, without having somewhere to go.  I give control to the song, to the lyrics.  I am at the mercy of the artist.  I am at the mercy of their story.  It is easier to live someone

  • Open, Empty, GO!

    I have always said I am an addict, or more accurately I have an addictive personality.  What does that really mean?  Why do I insist on believing this untruth?  I am nothing I do not want to be.  Why do I live in the things I do not want to live in?  I am the master of my world.  I am

  • Runaway Mind

    Sometimes my mind just runs away and leaves me in the dust.  I cannot always put my thoughts on paper.  I have a hard time knowing when to stop, when I do not know I have started.  Music allows me to feel.  Music allows me to speak.  I cannot carry a tune to save my life, but that does not

  • Adulthood

    Adulthood can be so overwhelming at times…   I am sorry, but I have to take a side step, if we have had the blessing of sharing a face-to-face conversation, or maybe a technology facilitated one by either text or call.  You will know I like making up words.  For example as I let the word “Adulthood” bounce
