Today is gray and gloomy, I needed a fresh pop of colour.
From my wildflower garden, still pretty in October.

Sugar on Wounds is part diary, part memoir, and a survival story. It's a window into the final years of therapy training, where old wounds resurface and self love becomes a radical act.

This only works for me if the number is 0. If I don't write I meet my target, if I do write a single word I exceed it.

Greetings, #pretendpanel! One week into writeathon month, I'm wondering how you feel about this notorious topic...

THE WORM'S WAY
A tiny, lonely worm born inside an apple with no idea why it exists. As it tunnels it's way forward, each bite brings new fears and new wonders.
Is there more to life than what it's born into?

Love isn’t some thing we do. It’s who we are. It lives at the core of our being, waiting to move through us into the world. When we hold back our love out of fear or pride, we’re not protecting ourselves, we’re blocking the very flow of life that sustains us. 💞

I'm doing better alone.
Do you even care?
I certainly don't.
What kind of messed up #experiment did we find ourselves in.
Sometimes I think it was a test.
You were meant to fail so I could learn to persevere.
