As I sit here reminiscing over when my love for writing started, I realized I have over 13 drafts from the past few years that I have yet to go through and publish. Maybe one day soon that will happen…who knows. In the meantime, let’s backtrack to my most recent post, “The Passing of Rose.”…

I never imagined myself sharing these struggles.. but seeing as we’re leaving 2020 behind, I find it only fitting. This year I found myself in the darkest place I have ever been. I’ve been suffering from anxiety for six years and depression for almost nine now. My anxiety and depression hit an all time low…

He told me I had nothing to worry about and If I did,  he’d let me know But the look  in his bright blue eyes told me: he was afraid of losing me and he may have he was afraid this would happen and it did If honesty was such a price to pay I…
