A New Voice
Sometimes a voice wants to find itself without looking in the mirror. I was like that once. I felt like my voice had been stolen from me– a few times, in fact– because I refused to look at it in the mirror or acknowledge its semi-tragic existence. Around me there were other voices and I shopped around a bit. Peering through the handprint-plastered windows, I tried to adopt the voices I saw around me because I refused to look at how broken mine was.

Don’t Work Again in 2022 if You Make These 5 Investments
However, if you take a close look at the current situation, the answer is obvious. As Silicon Valley is the innovation and startup capital of the world, talented young people flock to California to compete for the best tech jobs. Software developers can easily earn a few hundred thousand dollars in this country. There is more to it than that, however. The majority of companies use stock options as a form of compensation for their workers. As an employee at Google, for example, if you are a talented individual. They’re terrified of losing you! The human mind is at the heart of all new ideas and advancements. If you want to keep your job, they can simply give you stock options. If you work for the company for three or ten years, you will receive a certain amount of stock. After a year or two, you decide to leave your current job and join Zuck’s Meta because he renamed the company. You won’t be able to! For the sake of not forfeiting your contractually-guaranteed options, you must stay on until the end of your contract’s term. That’s what makes them millionaires in the first place.

No until it's yes.
It is said that the answer is no unless one asks. Have you ever found a minute of bravery to simply ask a question? I often wonder how my life would have evolved had I have asked more questions. What would have been removed and trimmed? I made such a call a few days ago to DOT asking them about two trees growing nicely in my front yard that was shared by the state. They had said that they could indeed take them down, but yet they remained, for two years they remained.

The Struggles Of a Single Homeless Mother.
The struggles of a single homeless mother. Will not lie. Things have not been easy for my daughter or myself these past eight years. We were homeless in California for several years because of how hard it is to find housing. A number made me promises of people who said they would help us but then never came through. We thought we would come to New York and live a different life with another person who said they were my friend and would help us, only for them to turn out to be not what they represented over the phone. She did not keep any of her promises.

Thank you, Goddard
Readers are hooked on the drug that is poetry, novellas, novels, memoirs, and so on; and writers are the dealers. It's why I started writing; it’s why I become enveloped in a story. It’s why I put myself through college, once again, even though I already had a career path. It’s where parts of humanity reside that are unattainable otherwise. Writing keeps our history. It keeps our sanity. It takes the parts of ourselves that seem tangled and rotten, and breathes life into them. It is, without a doubt, my favorite medium. Writing, and reading, is therapy for the world.
