I remember the exhilarating feeling of the Summer after graduating high school. I was 18, seemingly confident, and full of wonder for the future. I can feel that ghost of a girl as I fondly look back. Her identity would take some hits in the coming years. I remember the trepidation and excitement as IContinue reading “Pieces of me”

Wake Up
Do you remember those moments when your parents got your attention as a child? They asked for your eyes and took your chin in their hands to direct your gaze, and you knew they meant business.
