Visual art, illustration, drawing, cartoons, comics, and sketches are a form of escape for me, escapism. It’s the one thing that comes a bit more naturally for me, as untrained as I am at it. I’m not a trained artist, and so I often draw in a childlike, “flat,” one-dimensional manner. But as bad as…

Hey everyone. An update on myself: And so in sum; I plan to work in a preschool setting for the foreseeable future. And if I ever get accepted into a graduate mental health counseling//creative writing program, I’ll definitely do one of them, I’ll def. pursue one. *And if I don’t get into grad school, I’ll…

the pure of heart Their embrace is the warmest, their smiles are healing and soulful. | I still have a lot of years left to live, and I pray for the good of life. Maybe I have to attain a new viewpoint, a new way of looking at things. I have to see rainbows everywhere, like…

Raindrops It’s a win for all of us who’ve been hurt. The raindrops outside my window. Are they streaks of water, or are they angels’ tears? Angels crying for us? It can only benefit us. Even if it washes onto street corners and into gutters, the supernatural things still cried for us. And sometimes rainbows…

I am happy As my friend, I have to say that me, the night sky, and the constellations are all fixated on you. And yet we’re all the same, we’re together in this. There’s no erasing the future, there’s no building the past, except in our imagination. May your hopes be high, and your prayers…

I’m not really political in any way, I’m apolitical. But I’ve recently noticed that I might have some tendencies that are considered conservative, Independent, and liberal. And so I’m not really a leftist or a rightist. Maybe I’m a centrist, a moderate. I prefer the label “political Independent,” or just unaffiliated. I tend to think…

I initially considered many other options, beyond teaching. I went up and down the list, and I job-shadowed, interned, volunteered, worked for a little bit, and interviewed at many different places and job settings, before I finally decided on a career in education. I seriously considered fields like mental health counseling and social work. I…

Refuge, wings What would happen if we stopped seeing shapes and patterns, visions and imagery? These are our lifeblood. What if music, art, and poetry stop existing? And what happens to friendship and love when it’s questioned too much? I’m full of love, loving; and we’re lovely, love’s devotion. | How are we here? And…
