Life in a Box
Today is one of those beautiful sunny days, you know... clear blue sky, a light dusting of snow on the ground with the distant scent of woodsmoke in the air.

On My Way
I found myself thinking back on a lot of things pertaining to my relationship with my father. It wasn't always such a high strung relationship between us, we actually did get along and were very close when I was a lot younger. I needed that man more than I thought I did, and the years showed me that very clearly. This article is going to focus a lot on all of the good memories I had with him, moments not only I was proud of, but that made a huge impact on him. From Sporting events, to just relaxing with one another.

What It's Like to Be A Twin
I am not an individual. True, I think in singular, learn in singular, speak in singular and do in singular. But I am not an individual. No, to the outside world I am a part of a whole. For the first eighteen years of my life I existed only in conjunction with my other half, my twin brother. He came into the world four minutes before me (a fact that feels more significant than perhaps it should) and our shared acclimation to the world and to our family has given rise to one of the most complex relationships I have yet to experience. He’s both the person I’m most connected to and the bane of my existence. But aren’t those just two sides of the same coin?

On My Way
So, in the last article we focused on the why and how things got the way they were. In this one I would like to focus on the shenanigans that lead and kept me in difficult situations. Both with family and friends. From legal points mainly. We'll start with school and how things turned sour.

A Four Letter Word
Reality can change and be twisted or completely turned upside down. This story follows the series of events concerning my mother’s stroke. Every emotion that I never shared.
