Like a semi truck, the pull of Santa’s sleigh created a large wind drift pulling behind him. In the wake of his departure, a large windstorm brewed, stirring up the ground below. Kid’s plastic swimming pools, out of place in the frigid climate, frisbeed across the horizon. Garbage cans barreled through the streets, chasing each […]

A Minute
It took me a minute….. to deal with, process, grow, etc. I love this phrase, but to some people it sounds dumb; referring to a larger, quantitative, span of time as a minute. Understandably, it probably took a lot longer than 60 seconds. A minute of time is different than a minute in time. Has […]
Pity Party
It’s been a real pity party at my house this week, I tell you what. So much has happened in such a short time, it really weighs on a girl’s heart to think about it all. Except the thing is, it didn’t all happen at one time. In that moment of sadness, it’s easy to […]
Motivational Statistics
Consequences are intended to act as deterrents, rather than just punishments. May the crazed acts of desperate mothers deter our children from future misbehaviors
The Threshold
Follow me home, if I don’t get us lost first
Homage
It was just a walk by, but my side eye caught a glance, Of my silken silouhette, dancing pirouette, broom in hand. From this angle, line of sight, Reflection mirrored in new light. These curves and these dimples, how they shined and glistened. Like the floors I’d been sweeping And the tubs I’d been scrubbing. […]

Ready or Not
I still had not decided if I would speak. What would I say about the man who gave me up? About the relationship we didn’t have? My sister handed me a legal pad, and sitting next to each other on the couch, we began writing our speeches at 11pm. In twelve hours, we were to […]

Reflections in the Pond (full, version)
The final, full version of Reflections in the Pond. This furry, allegorical fable is full of humor, inspiration, and truth. In writing this piece, I had a lofty goal of appealing to people of all belief systems and backgrounds; along with creating a story where the lesson you learn changes every time you open the pages. It is not a fairy tale about how things should be, but a fable that is eerily similar to the way things often are. Please enjoy!
Reflections in the Pond (finale)
The finale event of our coming of age, forest fable. Heartwarming and Heartbreaking, c’est la vie Thank you for taking this journey with me!

Walking Strong!
I remember this girl; Fearless, Powerful, Strong. The girl from my youth that I always wished I could tap into. The me before I knew pain and sorrow. The me before I was knocked down and made to lower my head before others. She is no longer a distant memory. But don’t be mistaken. I […]
Much Ado About the Weather
Biggest Pet Peeve of All Time: Talking about the weather. Why? Because there is so much more to talk about, so much more that needs to be talked about. But the weather is comfortable, easy, non-combative. The implications of this sickens me. As if humans have nothing more in common than the sky above us. Just because […]

You are not my sunshine. You are my star light; Showing me beauty in the darkness. You are not normal. You are Supernormal; Going beyond the range of normal to a realm of extraordinary.

Trust The Fall
I have suffered immeasurable losses. Sure, my losses can be quantified; their ratios rationalized to juxtapose the impressions left as scars. But the mass that weighs on my soul can not be scaled or justified. Sometimes it feels like an endless battle, denied enough time to wipe the blood off our eyes before the bell rings. Perpetually caught […]
Say What?
If only the national debt earned a penny every time the word Kardashian was used. The goal of this speech was to use rhetorical devices and vivid words to write for the ear. Inspired by classic children’s authors as well as some of my favorite political rappers; this speech was performed shortly before the 2016 presidential elections.

Our scars are reminders of our strength, not the source of it. Refuse to be defined by the events that make life difficult!
