The Painter With Colors No One Else Could See
Emotions Given Shade
A young painter used colors invisible to everyone else. When people viewed her paintings, they didn’t see the colors—but they felt them: warmth, nostalgia, peace, determination.

Her art taught the town that feelings didn’t need to be visible to be shared.

Most rivers reflected who you were. This one showed who you could be. When someone leaned over its surface, they saw versions of themselves—fearless, joyful, curious, compassionate.

Day 4 of Quitting
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe it’s better to go through life a little buzzed… this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and I’m going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (‘this’ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.
