First of all, my hubby is the kindest. I'm so blessed to have found him. He has such a sweet heart and is so sensitive. Reminded me of my dad. Does he criticize me more than my dad? Ya! But what can we do. We've been living together for 6 years and raising a kid … Continue reading I Didn’t Always Go for Assholes

In Others, We See Ourselves
There is a teaching I learned first in the name of the Ba'al Shem Tov. Then years later I heard it again in the name of another teacher/master of a different faith. The teaching goes like this: When we see faults in others, it is really our own faults we are seeing in them. Like, … Continue reading In Others, We See Ourselves
My Kid, My Calling
In the summer of 2014, when I decided to stop chasing men and start chasing my dreams of becoming a mom, I committed myself to being the most reliable professional I could be, which for me meant making sure I consistently got to work promptly. My first nutrition job after grad school was in a … Continue reading My Kid, My Calling
I Bleed Melted Crayons
You shot a dart Through my heart And now I bleed But my blood isn't the viscosity That it seems It's thicker And less quicker It's multi-colored dark Not red alone Ever since you hung up the phone I feel my entire future blown I'm downtrodden, sad Full of despair The things I used to … Continue reading I Bleed Melted Crayons

Of course, my first reaction was to second guess my recent actions...Was it the F bomb I dropped a … Continue reading You Got This!
Beyoncé Appeal
I love how performers flirt with their audience. Like literally, 'you can look, don't touch' (Best Friend - Saweetie ft. Doja Cat lyrics—their performances are too strippery for my taste, but that's a great line.) I've always wanted to be a performer. I've also always wanted people to pay attention to me. The problem is, … Continue reading Beyoncé Appeal

Projected Intimacy
I challenge I had when dating was that whenever I would share my writings with the guy, I felt closer to them. Even if it turned out they didn't read it in the end, I immediately felt close just by merely sending it there way. Why did I connect to easily? Was my soul reaching … Continue reading Projected Intimacy
