It was close to midnight and I was already in bed when I was fetched out of bed. My dad was being sent to the ER.  I don’t remember how much my little brother tried during this incident but I know my little brother tries his best. In knowing my dad, his preference is toContinue reading “Fragments, 5”

Kuv Niam You say my name. You call me but you only want to hear my voice. You only want me to say hello. You cannot hold the phone very long. You do not tell me your stories anymore. You only want to hear my voice. You do not know what happened. You cannot seeContinue reading “Fragments, 4”

If you are on Twitter/X, you can ask Grok to make an animated version of you. They are hilarious and range from interesting to not-even-close, although I do like the one where I look like a Sailor Moon character. My son likes the Lego version. Somehow, in February and March of 2025, my nature photographyContinue reading “Social Matrices”

You are more than the labels that have been placed on to you. Your complexities and multiple dimensions make you unique in a human experience. You have within you the ability to set yourself free. Choose to believe. Choose love.

You are there, at the top of that hill. I have been waiting and wanting to see you there. That hill looks a bit dark but there is a winding road to get there. There is a way there that I had forgotten about. I was looking for that way to get there but IContinue reading “Dream ~ Npau Suav”
