Epilogue
I feel like everything belongs to me and nothing belongs to me. I have all the control but I also take all the shifts. There is no resting. No reprieve. No overtime pay. No pay at all. No labor laws. Very little compassion. And, in my case, no strong arms to hold me in the middle of the night when it goes badly in my dreams. No one’s mind to help me solve the problem, and no single person who helped me generate this genetic code across this tiny little tribe.

How Understanding Your Childhood Wounds Can Finally Give You the Love Story You've Always Dreamed Of
I'll never forget the moment I realized I was dating my father. Not literally, of course—that would be a whole different kind of therapy session. But as I sat across from my partner during yet another argument about emotional availability, something clicked. The same frustration I felt trying to get him to open up was eerily similar to the helplessness I'd experienced as a child, desperately seeking my emotionally distant father's approval and attention.

The Secret Drawer
Growing up, there was one rule in our house I never dared to break: Don’t touch the drawer in Dad’s study. It was an ordinary drawer in an old wooden desk — scratched, dusty, the handle barely hanging on. But to me, it might as well have been a vault. Dad’s tone made it clear — that drawer was off-limits.

The Day I Stopped Apologizing for Existing
The Day I Stopped Apologizing for Existing I’ve always been the type of person who apologizes to chairs. You know, the ones you bump into and go, “Oh sorry,” as if the chair might file a complaint for emotional damage.

How I Failed Miserably at Being a Morning Person
I once believed that becoming a morning person would magically fix my life. Instagram told me so. There were thousands of beautiful people sipping green smoothies at 5:00 a.m., journaling about gratitude, and greeting the sun like they’d just won the lottery of life. I wanted that. I wanted to be that person.

Dimmed Sunlight. Top Story - June 2025.
I keep her pictures in what Generation Alpha would see as a vintage box but I know it is from Old Navy; and holds that smells of old chapstick and age. Photos on all four sides of the box of memories on developed Polaroids slipped in. Lift the top and there she is, frozen at thirty-eight, laughing like a brass bell in a summer parade. In every shot her shoulders are square, spine fluid like a proud river, hands mid-air as though the punchline has just landed and she’s gifting the air back to the world. She looks at the camera the way sunflowers look at the sun with a guaranteed certainty that it will rise again.

My Neighbor’s Cat Thinks I’m Its Owner Now
It started with a meow. A single, innocent meow. At the time, I didn’t realize that meow was a legal contract in cat law, binding me for life to an arrangement I never agreed to. If I had, I might’ve shut my window, moved to another city, or learned how to meow back in a way that screamed, “Wrong house, furry overlord.”
