Digging in Dirt and Rolling Down Grassy Hills
The weather is slowly but surely warming up. Spring is taking its rightful place as we bid winter good bye. I’ve always enjoyed the spring time. I’d say its easily my second favorite season after autumn.

The Dragon Beside Me
In the tapestry of life, there are figures that stand out like radiant stars against a velvety sky. Among these luminous souls, there exists one who has etched her indelible mark upon my heart—a woman of extraordinary strength, resilience, and grace. Her name is Emily, but to me, she is the Dragon Beside Me.

6 Things About Writing I Wish I Could Go Back In Time And Tell Myself
We all wish for a time machine for one reason or another. Sometimes it's to go back and play the numbers for a big lottery jackpot. To see a loved one more time, or to go and tell our past selves not to go on that date because we're going to get our hearts broken.

Does language create thought, or does thought create language?
Every time I dip my toes into the swirling waters of how our chatter intertwines with our noggin's workings, I'm totally spellbound. It's like standing at the crossroads of a never-ending debate: does the lingo we toss around shape the contours of our thoughts, or is it our thoughts that give birth to the words we end up using? Along comes the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis, throwing a curveball into my mental musings. This brain-poking theory suggests our speech doesn't just give a nudge to our thinking—it might actually be the architect behind it. It's a head-scratcher, making me wonder if the boundaries of my own thought process are corralled by the words that have been handed down through generations. It's an enthralling, slightly eerie notion to wrap your head around.

Some Stories Are Worth rewriting and editing.
I'm writing this story as a series at the moment. I have decided not to put limits on this one because I want to show a variety of my musical tastes.

Eavesdropping Sleepy Mission (Unofficial) Challenge Winners
First, off let me apologize for making you wait. I know I'm a day late, and I posted two stories before this one today, but let me explain: I got called into work last night, and also, I am weirdly particular about the layout of my profile. I like it to go in a certain order when possible (unless there's a series involved.)

One Of Those Days
Introduction Many days I will wake up and have many subjects to write about. I try not to repeat myself and I also am wary of publishing poems one after another. When we work at our day jobs we have no choice but to go to work, deliver what needs delivering and put in the hours.

The Brilliant Mind of a Vocal Creator
I became a content creator on Vocal in March 2018 and celebrated five years of being on this amazing platform. Since joining Vocal, I've had one story featured as a Top Story (August 2023) and a plethora of tips, which I appreciate very much. 2018 wasn't a great year for me personally, as I was homeless, jobless, and going through other personal issues. During those dark times, I was at my local library and all of a sudden, I ran into a site, which would later be Vocal. When I was in grade school, I loved writing my thoughts in notebooks. As I've stated in previous stories, my household and part of my childhood was hostile, abusive, and toxic. Decades later, writing gave me an opportunity to let my imagination fly, but at the same time, sharing my thoughts with everyone online. There is no age limit on being creative. During those aforementioned darker times, writing gave me an outlet to formulate on topics that matter to me and inform others on. Every year on October 20 is the National Day on Writing, celebrating writing in all forms. According to numerous online sources, there are positive benefits of jotting down your reflections on either pen and paper or digitally. These pick-me-ups such as helping you become more creative, improving as a writer, learning more about yourself, reducing stress, and building up your confidence.

Medium Boost and Vocal Top Story in the Same Day?
I’m not a person who considers herself “lucky”. If I do have faith in anything close to luck, it’s karma. I try to be a good person, because I’ve always believed that if you do nice things, nice things will come back to you.
