Is there a cruise control setting on our emotions? Do we, in similar fashion to the behaviors exhibited in long driving scenarios, zone out, while engaging the cruise option, and float to our next outpost on lifes highways? Where might this leave us? Are we filling a latrine in a random rest stop, unaware of how […]

The Amazing and Wonderful World of Self Giving!
The mailbox is a long-standing edifice to a past, marginally related to the current, digitally focused world. Once this was the source of our correspondence.

This endeavor always seemed a waste of time. All of the time spent anticipating the hypothetical tension when hook makes purchase with […]
Given to sleep and despair
Have you ever lain in bed, And breathed in a day, That made you choke on the night? Have you ever closed your eyes, wishing that everything you’d seen in your day, would be completely undone? Have you felt that your pillow, soft and reassuring against your cheek, was the most comforting thing […]
Old? Or Old School?
When I was very young, my friends and I would gather at unchaperoned locations and drink. After procuring quantities of alcohol and a vacant abode, we would gather and have a party. On one such occasion, my friends and I found ourselves unable to consume all the booze that had been acquired. Since we couldn’t stash […]
