For others, identity is like the North on a compass; a general vector … Continue reading Mental Health Monday – 05.22.23

#mentalhealthmonday#mentalhealthawareness I hate exercise. Not the act itself. That part I like. I am willing to endure the suffering of the hard work out in order to reap the benefits that come after, but for me, like many others, it's the commitment of time that discourages me. I would just rather be doing something else. … Continue reading Mental Health Monday – 02.13.23

#mentalhealthmonday#mentalhealthawareness Quick write to start the year. One thing first;these posts aren't meant to be instructive. I can't tell you what to do.

#mentalhealthmonday#mentalhealthawareness Fantasy and reality. The zone that delineates the sane from the mad.

What good are dreams, if they do not take us to places so foreign and so bizarre, … Continue reading Mental Health Monday – 10.17.22

We want to think that the work we have done is sufficient. We want to believe that we know the way, and the path, and that we are far … Continue reading Mental Health Monday – 08.15.22

The past - never lasts. The cure - is so unsure. I've broken every cast, spiked the mix and still it's pure. Unadulterated - Chronic masturbated I know, I probably should have waited, can't remain this aggravated - and surviving on nothing's just part of disbelief.

Oh no, it ain't easy, to play the fool so well and fall into the pitfalls of your funhouse every time. Hope it pleases you to watch me laugh and tumble down upon my face; degraded on the incline. Burn my hands - I grip life tighter Smash me down - I climb back … Continue reading Grinning
