Starting College, Again

Eminem said, “I pray that God answers, maybe I’ll ask nicer.”  The eighteen months leading up to me having being my brains blown out I was working myself out of homelessness.  I had enrolled in college earning a 3.7 GPA, worked, volunteered, and rescued two dogs from the desert. With that being said, this morning […]

Overcoming Fear of Loss

  Today I was trying to stand using the parallel bars, and as I was attempting to find my balance my physical therapist said to me, “You must learn when to let go.”  In this moment I began to think about Sisyphus and the feeling of putting in so much effort to push a boulder […]
