It's not one size fits all.
I'm sure this is only a brief dance into this topic, but after my experience yesterday I felt it was important to remind us that our stories matter. Yesterday, it was strongly suggested that I should be working any job and should have never not been working. My health aside. Just a friendly reminder -... Continue Reading →
After physical therapy today, I wondered if I overshared. My tiredness and overdoing it from the weekend weakened my guard and my mouth just freely moved, my brain without a barrier. They hadn't realized my surgery was so recent, but the way they said it and the continued conversation, there was an understanding my surgery... Continue Reading →
My aunt died and was buried the week of my 12th birthday. My mom's oldest sister. My parents didn't want to mess with my day and moved her burial so it wouldn't fall on my day. Give me some kind of normalcy. That was always something I remembered, something I never wanted to forget. I... Continue Reading →
I had a conversation with a friend today. We talked about if we could do anything, no thought, what's the first thing that came to mind? We both answered. Our words were different, but he believed we said the same thing. In hindsight, I said everyone probably wanted the same kinds of things, maybe different... Continue Reading →
If you could have seen the amazing amount of love one woman could provide... My mama was one strong woman to hold me up before my surgery. She had to watch as my entire world crumbled around me. She rallied for me and, while I didn't always show my appreciation, she kept me from losing... Continue Reading →
I watched a video on the TikyTok this morning. This amazing person explained their shift and internal understanding to self-awareness. They are they. They are not a woman. They are non-binary. I've struggled with this topic. And let me be perfectly clear. I am bisexual. despite the new terminology, I have always found myself drawn... Continue Reading →
We blame ourselves. Probably more times than we really ever remember or care to admit. We could probably list all the bad things that's happened to us. Shitty stuff happens. And sometimes we need to talk about those crappy situations. Though it doesnt need to rule your life either, but if you leave it inside,... Continue Reading →
They say we should love ourselves above all else. That we should be able to live a life unattached. Well, I haven't quite figured that out, yet. My whole life has been about attachments. My world has often been consumed by others, and I guess that's where my problems started. My life has never really... Continue Reading →
Funny things, before each miscarriage, and any anytime I mentioned wanting children, I was told that I wouldn't be a good mother. I don't play with matches. I don't run around with scissors. I don't push kids down on the playground. I don't bully. I don't spew hatred. I haven't been the best human being.... Continue Reading →
I wrote quite a few posts at the beginning of the messiness that is this blog. It was before my surgery, and I was going through a lot personally. Honestly, I still am, but that's for a different day. Anyway, I noticed I took so much of the blame on myself then. I thought because... Continue Reading →
