A Letter to Myself
Hey you, Before we begin, let’s take a moment to recognize something remarkable: you’re here. Despite the doubts, fears, and uncertainty, you’ve chosen to show up for yourself. And that, my friend, is no small feat. Learning to be grateful for who we are, even in the messiest and most confused moments, is where true transformation begins.

Navigating Beyond the Wreckage. Runner-Up in Letters of Gratitude Challenge.
The following is an excerpt from a “parting” letter to a “mentor” of sorts, with whom I had the privilege of communicating with for a decade. Through her, I gained immeasurable wisdom, valuable life insights, and, most importantly, the ability to genuinely love and value myself.

Write for Me, ChatGPT. AI-Generated.
I was critically analyzing a piece I had just written for the currently ongoing Unfiltered poetry challenge, “tweaking it” for the hundredth time (no exaggeration). My mind began to drift as it frequently does (ADHD queen over here). I thought about how unfair it was that some people used AI generated programs to just write something for them, and began to wonder how many people do that without disclosure on this very platform. I’m not sure I want to know the answer.
