There is still vibrancy to behold
To touch a petal To caress a flower To hold beauty within one’s arms There is still vibrancy to behold There are sumptuous delights Let it grow all around Let it lead to a connection There’s always hope
I could have had an easier life
Someone texted me a few hours ago that I was where I needed to be. Or rather, I was where I was needed. It is a most wonderful feeling to be needed. No one can discount that. However, I find myself second guessing my recent life choices. Six […]
Online grocery shopping at midnight
They say never to shop for groceries when you are hungry. If you do, you are likely to overshop. Likely to buy things that in a hungered frenzy may seem good, but in actuality will make you retch. We’ve all been there, done that. I have learned my […]
Pens in my bath caddy
I will admit I’m a bit anxiety-riddled. And, let’s be clear that’s an understatement. I question my daily decisions. Hope things will turn out ok. But I also very clearly understand that hope can’t be a decision-making factor. My brain feels like it is on fire. My chest […]
Even in lockdown, New Yorkers won’t eat certain things
I am going to admit something I probably shouldn’t. While working certain days from home this past week, I finally put my stove on. I’ve been in this apartment four months. And, I put it on not to cook. I, instead, put it on to heat a freshly […]
Too low to go on under
I do not drive. Have never really felt the need to despite living in 20 cities. While I was an oddity in Los Angeles, here in New York I’m perfectly normal. And, that is how I like it. I do like riding in cars. I love singing in […]
Goodbye NYC payphones
It had to eventually happen. The last time I used a payphone was five years ago in the airport in Rome. And, I barely figured it out. I am not unique in my non-use of public payphones. I always do a double-take when I see one. I do […]
One should always have a camera ready in New York
Admittedly, in New York one can come across many odd things. I know that was a very generic, empty sentence. However, it is quite true. You can see big rats the size of a cat chasing a slice of pizza. You can see a guy carrying a three […]
NYC is a bad place to not get the flu shot
I am a hardcore New Yorker. Love it. Defend it at all turns. Relish in walking through the city streets and seeing the beautiful skyline at night. With that said, occasionally I do think New York is a bit tough of a place in which to live. Such […]
I didn’t run for the train
I run, run, and run. I’m in constant motion to and from. I fidget. I bite my nails. I’m in constant motion. I’ve always been this way. I was born like this. A decade ago, I would walk 45 minutes in the morning to work and 50 minutes […]
