Ladies
“The doctrine advocating social, political, and all other rights of women equal to those of men.” That is one definition of Feminism. Another is “A path of using tact to forward women’s rights.” That’s my own personal definition. And another is “The philosophy of acting like a barbarian towards men because men are pigs.” I’m…

Life’s too short to be routine. The humdrum of every day life can make us stagnant and just kinda blah. It can make us wish for something more, something bigger, more unique and more persuasive. We can spend our life wandering and wanting. I ask you what joy comes to you when you get that…
Read MoreVolunteering
Volunteering is to donate one’s time to a cause they deem worthy. It’s considered a selfless act which often receives gratitude. The “cause” can range from helping sea turtles and butterflies to saving mankind/womenkind. Pick a random day on the calendar and it will read “Inter/National Save The … Day.” I’m sure that there are…

A problem every parent, actually every adult, has to face is that question from a child to which they do not have an answer. Not that there is no answer, just that we adults don’t know it. Momentarily the child’s curiosity has surpassed our own personal need for knowledge. It can be frustrating to feel…

Pain sucks. And chronic pain sucks chronically. If I were asked to give a speech about pain to a room full of strangers, after my introduction I would say these two sentences and then sit back down. I’m trying to imagine the individual who would either disagree or not appreciate the weight of my statements.…

There is a time for fun and a time to adult. Fun is the ability to laugh at one self’s blunders and see the ridiculousness around them. It’s the ease at which one finds themselves in when having to be and do adult things. Fun reduces the unhealthy effects of being an adult and can…
Read MoreI Am Not
I think that the only people who truly understand the suffering, shaming, hating, and degradation a perfectionist fights every day is their mother. I was 16 when it was explained to me that I wasn’t going to receive any lecture or punishment for my actions because I did a far more severe job than anyone…

When I was a kid all I wanted was to be an adult. I wanted to be seen, heard, acknowledged and believed. I wanted access to the adult conversations, jokes, toys, bedtime, and the word “no”. That’s right, I wanted to be able to say no and not get my parents into a tizzy and…
