Coping With Fear
Fear. It’s not a fun state to possess, but all of us do from time to time. From that dreadful tingling in your bones when you’re trapped somewhere to the long-term anxieties of finding a stable living situation when things go out of whack, fear can present itself in multiple different ways.

To My Sunshine. Content Warning.
I was not prepared when I found out that I was going to be your mother. I was 18 years old, barely out of high school and no were near an adult in my mind. As you grew inside of my womb, I was overwhelmed with fear and anxiety, but also with love for you. Your birth was not easy on me, because you were too afraid to come out into the world. 48 hours of labor and a c-section later, you were here and my life was never the same again.

To Know Thyself
The challenges we face, are not meant to break us, they are opportunities to be welcomed, for under the pressure of these challenges it brings out the most primal part of ourselves, which can be on many occasions, the side of ourselves, that we may not have even known was there, and if we were un aware of such a side to our own individual uniqueness, than it stands to reason that others would most likely not be privy to the knowledge that such a side of us exists.

To Tektal and Fellow Creators!
To Tektal and many others, It may seem strange to address a letter of gratitude to someone, like yourself, Tektal, who until September 2023, did not exist. As merely an extraterrestrial figment of my imagination, you provided me with one of the most important moments of my writing career—an actual bona fide win in Vocal's Extraterrestrial Challenge.

GO MAVS!
Dear Dallas Mavericks, Wow! Here we go again! October 24th was the start of the new 2024-2025 NBA season. During the 2023-2024 season, the thought of going all the way and winning the NBA championship was exciting, exhilarating, and thrilling. If people weren't fans at the beginning of last year's seasons, they were by the end creating a sports tsunami.

A Fine Line Between Intoxicating and Toxic Friendships and Relationships
There is a fine line between intoxicating and toxic friendships and relationships. Sometimes, the most pleasurable, amazing things that we feel, are so intoxicating at first. When you make a friend, there’s that new relationship energy that flows and energizes our soul. There is a rush of positive feelings. It feels good. Some people call it NRE (New Relationship Energy). With time though, sometimes relationships turn into toxic situations. Toxic relationships can occur within friendships, relationships, and familial relationships.

Carus Pater
Dear Dad, It's been a while, and for that too I am grateful... you don't need me to tell you that it's a little complicated between us right now, and has been for a long time. We don't talk, not since you told me that I'm not your daughter anymore, but I still think of you as my dad - I guess I always will. So here it is, the truth without glamour or bitterness; I'm not sure I like you, but I love you. I'm not sure I wish things were different, or that I can say truthfully that you have been a good father any more than I could say honestly that you have been a bad one...
