i choose to care so much about
mental health because it affects
entirely everything that we do as humans.
it’s in how we love,
in what we do with our lives
in adopting pets,
in leaving relationships,
in comfort tv shows and books,
in how we see ourselves,
in our broken tears and screams.
our mental health isn’t about
honeyed-up healing or fixing
some facade we’ve created, it’s about
finding our soul and nurturing it,
just like it deserves.

Choose Your Own Adventure: St Helena Station
*****Preface***** I have been obsessed with Choose Your Own Adventure stories since I was a kid. I credit them with my love of reading and writing. I've been struggling to get my own kids to embrace words the same way I have but they love video games and our occasional Dungeon's and Dragon's game... which gave me an idea. I'll write an interactive story. So far its working; my middle son loves it and can't wait for the next section to come out.
