It is amazing how a get-well gesture can go so far into lifting up someone’s spirits. The days have been bleak, at times. And many have had bad days. There may be a bit of a sympathy drought. But no worries, she thought to herself. Today magic would […]
While growing up, my mother had a saying for everything as well as a superstition. I grew up with a lot of soundbites and food for thought. In certain ways, those bits helped mold me into a role of storyteller. I was back then. I am now. I’ve […]
When I’m bored or anxious I bite my nails. Everyone who has known me for any length of time has at some point tried to swat my hand away from my mouth. I’m like a little kid that way. It is the worst habit ever. But then again, […]
I was recently re-watching the animated television show called Adventure Time. For a children’s show, it is rather dark. It takes place in the land of Ooo – a post apocalyptic wasteland which was ravaged by a cataclysmic event known as the “Mushroom War”, a nuclear war that […]
