Post Traumatic Stress Disorder; The storm after the storm.

I Told You You Would Leave Me
You were a late bloomer. A non-traditional student who still hadn’t started college yet. I was a graduate—already well past that stage, though little better for it. Time separated us like a bottomless valley. Life was a mountain I’d started climbing long before you had reached the foothills.

Two Lies and a Truth
I once invited a new friend over to play board games with a small group of friends over the upcoming weekend. He was reaching out regularly to hang out and I figured it would be a good way to get to know him better and introduce him to others so that they could get to know him as well. He accepted the invite and I gave him the details for what, when, and where.

The Luminous Grove
The night was alive with an otherworldly glow. As Aiden stepped cautiously through the dense woods, his breath hitched at the sight before him—a colossal ancient tree standing at the heart of a meadow, its roots sprawling like the veins of the earth. But what truly stole his breath away were the tiny, glowing fungi that surrounded its base, illuminating the ground with a mesmerizing blue hue.

"LOST IN UNDERSTANDING IN TIME". Top Story - March 2025. Content Warning.
I created this video song story to talk a little about mental health and what happens when one divorces a narcissist. I thought I would create this out of memory of a friend I knew who was hurt deeply by her ex-husband. This situation occurs in many relationships. The older lady friend of mine reflects about her over 30 years ago. She is sad, but therapy and time she begins to heal from her pain that she hid from people for many years.
