Insult By Association

There has to be a way to read people's minds the first time you meet them in order for you to day if they would ruin your life in the future. What strikes me is that when all of us were in school we all had that yearning to belong, or we all just wanted... Continue Reading →

There’s A Name For Everything

Anyone else in working in their twentysomethings? You may be one of the many culture-shocked people with something which is apparently known as Quarter-Life Crisis. Thanks to Waffy and Lou Ann for this little piece of information.It's funny, I was in denial for a bit but when I started looking at the symptoms on the... Continue Reading →

Stand or Sway?

The Beginning of a Cycle

It was around 2001 or 2002 when my dad had to be confined over at Saint Louis for a heart problem. During that time, my mom, my brother and I would take turns in taking the role of the watcher. I didn't think of it as such a fun thing to do until I was... Continue Reading →
