Some Bad Days

Trigger Warning: Brief mention of purging further into post. “Happiness is sand in your toes and a shell in your pocket.” I don’t have much happiness in my heart right now.

Home Sweet Home

There’s history, tradition, andContinue reading “Opposite Action in Action”

Not everyone is always understanding of mental health issues. Even those who love you.Continue reading “Brainstorming, the Owl Rain”
