  • 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

  • Sixx, Is This Gonna Hurt?

    I woke up stuck for the third day in a row, or the fifth or is it the sixth? I have been stuck in writing, stuck in things of life, stuck in thought patterns, just STUCK. Reading is my mode of escapism I use to tolerate the “stuck days” but even that has been failing me

    Communicate clear intentions; be well defined about what you want. Most importantly, be willing and prepared to accept what needs to occur in order for you to have what you asked for. Early this year I sent out a request to God (Uni) titled “Kickstart My Life” (Yes, it is a Crue reference!). What came

  • It is ugly. It is appalling.  It is heartbreaking.

    It goes by different names.  It is called domestic abuse.  It is called bullying.  It is called battering.  It is the repeated or habitual violence by one individual towards another individual.  It is WRONG!  It is a subject that many people choose to not acknowledge, less talk about.  It is condoned or viewed as acceptable
