Hi, I’m just me.

A struggling person, trying to find peace and moments of happiness while walking in my trauma, enjoying the beauty of life, the lessons of pain and finding the path to resilience…oh and walking the distance with my dogs. My only family who have never flinched in the face of my struggle. I know they have souls because they have helped me find mine.

Shadows: The darker, reflective side of life—the struggles, the hidden pain, and the lingering effects of trauma.

Sparks: The moments of resilience, hope, and the drive to keep moving forward despite the darkness.

Merry Christmas

Life.

Everything you receive is a gift.

Unwanted and unasked for

most times…

but still a gift

many gifts

Who knew someone could enjoy

receiving so many

brightly wrapped

boxes

of socks

sent from up above

he knew how much

I would need

each

and

every

pair

I can keep myself

warm

now.
