Letting Go

March 17, 2010

photo credit Sometimes I wish that I had never told anyone that I know in real life that I have a blog. I wish I could retract from their knowledge the memory that it even exists. Because then I wouldn’t worry about what others think so much, and I could have the freedom of writing [...]

Suffocating Darkness: Thoughts on Depression

February 27, 2010

photo credit It’s like trying to run in sand. You keep pushing, but the sand absorbs all of your strength. It’s like trying to scream underwater.
