Briskly, I walk into a fresh chapter as the calendar dives into yet another labeled set of hours, days... months...religiously counting down. Opportunities dwindle and slip away; they wait for no one. Who can blame them when their knocks go unanswered. The mountains we climb in search of that pinnacle of success can never be reached when we hide our thoughts...our voices. Increase the volume, time to be heard. -LDubs

My Writing Journey for 2024
Publish or perish. Although this phrase was birthed by academic writing, I don’t take this aphorism lightly. Writing is a vital component of the humanities, and the humanities endure, defining what it means to be human. I’ve always had a dream of publishing: at first it was a book of poetry, then perhaps a collection of short stories or even a novel. In Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar, Mark Antony says, “The evil that men do lives after them;/The good is oft interrèd with their bones” (Act III scene II). This line resonates with me; I don’t want to be remembered by the mistakes I’ve made in my life or by the mundane or morose anecdotes that may be passed down. After I watched the animated Disney movie Coco, I don’t want to be forgotten by my family.

Before and After
I’m sitting in a hairdresser’s chair, my arms poking out of the plastic sheath I’ve been given as protection from the bleach that coats my soon to be not-brown locks. My scalp is tingling and my nose is filled with the sour, astringent scent of chemicals. I have three choices of what to do while I wait:
