Sharing an exciting little writing thing:
12 years ago this tiny guy very unexpectedly entered my world— & today, he very unexpectedly left it.

You were such a good boy, Arrow. 🖤🤍

I wrote a couple of things the past two weekends that I’m kinda proud of. Continuing to be brave & pursue this dream & also being brave by sharing about it here. Kinda proud about all that, too.

Hi, I stepped back for a couple of weeks bc things have been heavy. But life keeps going, and it’s Sunday again— tell me something you like. I’ll go first: I like revisiting old favorite movies I’d almost forgotten about. Now your turn. 🖤
As of today, we’ve been doing this every Sunday for a whole year. Thank you for showing up here & sharing the things you like. I read every single one.

I’m thinking on what this looks like moving forward— not giving it up, but maybe a different prompt for year 2. Stay tuned. 🖤
Hey, it’s Sunday— tell me a thing you like. I’ll go first: I like tangible little things that have sweet memories attached: bottle caps, heart-shapes rocks, ticket stubs. Now your turn. 🖤

“…Practice any art, music, singing, dancing, acting, drawing, painting, sculpting, poetry, fiction, essays, reportage, no matter how well or badly, not to get money and fame, but to experience becoming, to find out what's inside you, to make your soul grow.”

sometimes you just need to lay on your favorite human. I like to imagine she is soothed by my heartbeat.

“…change your name
change your mind
change your ways
give them time
go back to school
go back to sleep
tell the secret you can’t keep
begin, be done
break a vow, make a new one
call me if you need a friend,
or never talk to me again—
but please stay”

🖤
Please Stay

21 years, somehow. 🖤
he was my childhood best friend & the first boy I ever loved, & 19 yrs ago today we lost him to suicide, just 6 months after graduation.

sometimes the grief is dull & achy & sometimes it is as sharp & stabbing as the moment I found out. stay, friends—please do whatever you can to stay. 🖤

You're not "choosing" to react. You're not "choosing" anxiety or depression. Your mind & body are reflexively responding & functioning in ways they've been programmed to. Changing those patterns involves more than "choosing" differently.

Grace over guilt. Recovery is a project.

For anyone else facing a hard thing today— me too; you’re not alone.

We’re gonna take it one hour, one minute, one breath at a time.

We’re gonna go slow, and we’re gonna pause when we need to.

We’re gonna be okay.

Ready? Deep breath. Steady. We’re okay. Let’s go. 🖤

sometimes lines in tv shows or movies hit my brain in just the right way. I’ve gotten a lot of mileage out of this specific mad men moment—

you are not a problem to be solved.

You deserve a partner who shows up for you— even at times it’s inconvenient for them.

Feeling v loved at the end of an incredibly hard day.

a little reminder for me & maybe you, too: you are worth being gentle with.

With every hour & every decision today, remember: there is nothing "selfish" about choosing yourself. In choosing yourself, your safety, stability, & recovery, you are also choosing to show up for every person or pet or cause you care about.

Choosing you is choosing them.
