She Saved and Loved
To my 8 year twin: This is the little bratty brat speaking. Hey sis. I'm writing this because I don't think that people appreciate or show they appreciate you, all that you do and all that you have done. So I'm gonna try my best to express that.

My Hero's
There are a handful of people that have impacted my life and have changed it in one way or another. These people are the ones that have influenced me to do better and to be better. They have brought me up when I was down, made me believe in myself when I no longer believed that I belonged, they have and had been there for me when no one else thought I was anything to be there for. I want to thank these people and let them know how much of a difference they have made in life even if they have no idea they ever even did.

My "Shero"
February 14, 2022 Dear Loretta, Happy Valentine’s Day! As you know I enter writing contests to try to win funding for my business. The one that is on the challenge board now is entitled “Hometown Hero.” I purposely waited until today, since it was not going to expire, to take a minute and say, “Thank You and I love you” on such a special day of LOVE.

My Nephew the Superhero🦸
He's the password to all my apps and anything important that needs a login. My little nephew Liam is this little pint-size superhero capable of lighting up any room. I met him for the first time last June of 2021 while visiting my hometown in New York. My sister and her two sons have birthdays just three days apart. So I decided to surprise them by coming to her birthday party, arranged by her closest friends. When we first met, this little ball of energy was initially shy around me, but, rightfully so, he was meeting an uncle he had never seen before. However, his timidness gradually vanished the more we played, and I began to realize how special he was. Although unfiltered and highly energetic, my nephew has a soft nature and has the uncanny ability to draw the best out of you. Oblivious to the attitudes of others, he can call upon a striking force of the healing nature. You can't be miserable around him; it is absolutely impossible.

Haunted by the Past
A door creaked. Hassan got up from his uncomfortable bed. Halfway through, he remembered that the door was already rusty. Slightly relaxed, he lay down again. He was beginning to wonder if it was him getting merely paranoid, or the room really seemed to be haunted by creatures that bothered him every night. Then there was also the fact that the noises only came at night, and died down by morning. It wasn’t that Hassan was not aware since he left early for work; they really did not exist even if he was working from home. That is, if one could call a small, shabby, deserted room, devoid of humans, home.

Butterflies
Trigger Warning: Self-harm and suicide methods are mentioned (without any images). Look at me in that picture; I felt so ugly. I have always wanted to look different. I didn't know what was about to happen to me though. What I do know now is that my life will never be the same.
