Parenting and family
1. Set Priorities The first step in balancing work and family life is to set your priorities. Decide what is most important to you and your family and make sure that those things are at the top of your to-do list. For example, if spending quality time with your children is a priority, make sure that you set aside time each day to do that.

Terror
There's fear in everything. Some fear things people would call nothing. Like butterflies. (Those things are really ugly up close though. We've all seen that one SpongeBob episode with Wormy.) Others fear what people would call more. Like death and surgery. But when it comes right down to it it's all just fear. Of course, there's that sickening type of fear. The one that never goes away, the one that follows you everywhere no matter what you do. I'm talking about terror. Pure unadulterated terror. Like fear, terror can be derived from many things. Bugs, the ocean, animals, flowers, and well people. People like the strangers on the street. It could be the woman you passed by today. Later you could find that after a short conversation with her, she got arrested for butchering her people in her basement. You'll always wonder if you would have been next. That type of fear could follow you everywhere.

Escape
I’m a published author. I can’t believe that my book is out there in the world, that my thoughts are there for others to read. In fact, the idea that I could write anything that other people would want to read is difficult to believe. But, I have never had high self-esteem.

A Dark Adventure
I used to have incredibly vivid dreams as a child. They sometimes manifested into night terrors/waking nightmares. It made it hard for me to tell the difference between dreams and reality at times because some dreams melted into reality. And some were so real that I didn't know I was dreaming while I was dreaming it.

The Power of Vulnerability and Authenticity: How Sharing Our Stories Can Help Us Heal and Transform
We all harbor narratives within ourselves that we are reluctant to unveil to others. These tales may pertain to our utmost fears, our most lamentable regrets, or our most harrowing experiences. However, it is these very stories that possess the potential to heal us, if we possess the courage to reveal them. And it is through the cultivation of genuineness and exposure that we can embark on the revolutionary journey of disclosing our stories.

A Grave Adventure
My brother and I grew up outside of a small town in the northern midwest on a five-acre homestead. There wasn't (and still isn't) much to do around those parts so finding activities to entertain us during the summer months, when mom was at work, became interesting. We were just curious kids, looking for something to do besides torture each other - as siblings do.

The Vocal Good Life
Introduction I thought I had better write something about the good things that happened yesterday in case my Vocal friends and audience thought that I was descending into the “Slough of Despond”. Although I might complain and my vaguely autistic tendencies cause me to get upset at certain things there are still a lot more good things happening for me.
