our love was like a candle
by being bright, the darkness could be pushed away. the flame was our dynamics. sometimes it blazed, sometimes even almost fainted. our love was like a candle. it took two to tango. you couldn’t be the one who always lit it after the rains dropped. and i couldn’t always be the only protector when the storms hit. our love was like a candle. the wax was our commitment, slowly evolving into a testament of endurance. the wick was our solid core, bonding our strength and resilience. now the warmth...

The Full List Of What You Deserve In A Relationship

It’s a cute fortune cookie phrase to say “don’t settle for less than you deserve!” But, it falls on deaf ears if a person can’t really wrap their head around what it means. What does one “deserve” in love, after all? I believe that good, honest, authentic, and loving people deserve everything that they’re willing to give to their part...

When Christmas Brought Me The Gift Of Discovering My Father’s Light
If you feel like you haven’t found your calling, I’m willing to bet you experience a little tug every now and again, an almost imperceptible feeling that there is something you ought to be doing, and I’m willing to bet you know what it is. It’s that feeling that says ‘What if I give it a go?’ It doesn’t have to be life-changing, it doesn’t have to earn you a living, but it’s an itch and you might be missing out on some of life’s greatest pleasures if you continue to put off scratching it. In ...

Single, Married, Divorced, Single…and AI
Itwas a party of broken men, soft in their distress. Pressed into chairs, propped against walls as if molting from the inside. Befuddled was how they struck me — the separating and separated, the divorcing and divorced. Their psychic pain a miasma everyone agreed to ignore.

No matter how fast renters moved in and out of the one-hundred-unit complex she knew everyone...
