Ok. Here’s this bit. We all made fun of or lightly teased Alanis Morissette for her “isn’t it ironic” song as it contained example after example of non-ironic things. Rain on your wedding day isn’t necessarily ironic. Some further context would be needed to make that determination. However, […]
I have lived in chaos for a rather long time. I may even dare to say since childhood. And, at times I say so proudly. It’s a sign of resilience in my mind. In my worldview. See, I do well in chaos. Or so I believe or have […]
