What’s is up with our hippocampus these days? The hippocampus is a region in our brain that ostensibly helps people tell whether an object is near or far. Considering that I walk into walls and chairs all the time, I have a feeling my hippocampus is a little. […]
A hand on my shoulder My mom believed deeply, heavily in symbols. Everything had an extra layer of meaning Nothing was quite what it appeared to be. A fork falling to the ground meant a man was coming by; forget that I am extremely clumsy. A cloudy sky […]
The outward tunnel shall be marked today Ever since he was told he had cancer he dreamt vivid dreams of that day he will face the white light at the end of the tunnel. He knows that day is coming despite the sunniest of personal outlooks and inspirational […]
