Day 1
Number of days sober: 1 I desire to be sober again. Escaping hasn’t worked; it is time to try something new. Pausing for a moment of reflection, it isn’t that escaping didn’t work, it is that I outgrew the tool. I have things I would like to do and they are better done sober.
Heavy Mind, Heavy Heart
A short introspective post: I kind of ramble, these are random thoughts I needed to excise. These last few months have been hard, well the entire year. Multiple deaths happened in my family and in my friend’s family. Severe health issues for people I love have been compounding. Post traumatic flashbacks have been occurring more…
Exploring Options
I’ve recently reopened my dream folder on my computer and have had some interesting ideas spring forth. Before I can allow myself to feel comfortable with the dream, I need to explore why another model of it failed. We were successful in our mission.

From the Well of Life
Deep in this well of pain, Slowly pulling myself up the walls, Foothold after handhold, Upwards, movement, towards the end, Far below the water churns with turbulance, Stones pull and fall away, Crashing below causing waves in, the pool of my emotional balance, Upwards, movement, towards the end, Handhold after foothold, Climbing out the well,…
By Your Side
Your news hit me and my wall came tumbling down, You lay there on the gurney, Calm and serene in chaos, Tubes and wires beeps echo through the passageways, IV hooked to life support, You lost to consciousness through all this effort, Holding your hand tightly a tear slips down, Fear churning inside, Questions and…
