Too Deep
I’ve been feeling really good lately. It’s taken me so much time to unravel everything that happened in my early years and how utterly awful my parents were to me as a child. It feels like it’s all finally come together and I feel better than I ever have. I think about parts of what…

Spirituality is important to me, but not in a way that everyone can relate to. I believe in a higher power, the universe, that guides us in a way that doesn’t always make sense. I believe that the Earth has a vibration to it that is part of the bigger universe and when you get…

My first computer was my dad’s. We had a computer in our house before anyone else I knew. I think it was the summer of 1987. We had the big floppy disks for everything. My dad bought us a few games like Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego. I loved that game and learned…

Daily Prompt 1/24/24
I want to read ALL the books. I love non-fiction books about history and people. Sometimes I enjoy biographies about all types of people. I don’t read fiction as much anymore because it seems too hard to get through these days. I like books that are essentially tell-alls. I guess you could say I am…
