Family can be our support system. Or they can be part of the problem. All about the complicated, loving, and difficult relationship with us and the ones who love us.
Creatures Great and Small
“I was not looking for another cat, but I really want that kitten,” my friend said emphatically. “He reminds me so much of my cat, Coco, and what he must have looked like when he was first born. I’ve always wondered about his beginnings since we found him – or rather, since he found us – when he was already six months old. I would dearly love to have this sweet kitten in hopes he’ll be as much of a gift as Coco has been. I believe it’s fate!”

Keep My Treasure Safe
Meeting my best friend was like two souls recognizing each other from a past life. The moment we met, you never would have known that we didn't grow up together. It was an instant connection of loud laughter and conversations that lasted well into the night. Looking at us, we were polar opposites; her dressed in black at all times, myself dressed head to toe in pink, the angriest highlighter you'd ever met. We met on a cold winter night in December, and by January, I was living in her apartment, partying and using together, working illicit jobs to pay the bills and keep ourselves high.

The Spangled Duck
"Come on, come on! It's right there... I can almost taste it!" I stand back and watch my daughter at work with a proud little smile. This is the first time we've been to the arcade in ages, but I never tire of watching her eyes light up with delight in a place like this. I suppose that's part of the magic of an arcade; the second you step through the door, you become a little kid again, no matter what your true age is.

If They Wanted to... They Would.
I've had several people send me reels and articles surrounding this subject and I have been battling feelings of both pleasure and displeasure - feelings of adequacy and inadequacy. I wanted to talk about my own personal thoughts and feelings as a person who was in a committed relationship and also as someone who is single as well as answering from my friendship's perspective. And... not just about the men, but also about my job as a person: "if she wanted to, she would" has come across my radar as well.
