2021, The Year I Found My Heart
How do we identify who we are? I believe most of us have a mental hierarchy of the things that make us who we are. Our jobs, our passions, and what drives us. I have a sneaking suspicion that many of us are not living our most authentic, meaningful lives. The state of the world, especially amidst this global pandemic, has left so many people struggling, living day to day.

How to Drown
Mother always said I would die with a song in my throat. Marcus, my brother, agreed, but the two of them had very different interpretations of what that meant. Mother recognized my tendencies toward questioning and, at times, disobeying. “Never lose your voice,” she always said. Marcus always just shrugged and said that since I was always humming and making up melodies, he figured I would do so until my dying day.

That Time a Kitten Saved Me
I don’t know about the rest of you, but I have noticed something about home offices. A lot of them have pets. I, for one, absolutely love going on zoom meetings with folks who I know have pets. It has become an important part of office culture to introduce our peers to our furry coworkers, and I am absolutely living for it. As is the case for many of us, I have been working remotely for over a year now. Remote work suits me. I am the type of person who is most productive while in a comfortable space, and of course, nearby my children (not one of them human). As 2021 crawled by, my life has changed enormously. As most of my life tends to be, my story can be begun with an interaction I had with an animal.
