After months of job searching, retraining, and earning his Class A commercial driver’s license—a supposedly high-demand qualification—he finally found a job that seemed like a good fit. He was informed that the company was laying off employees due to financial hardship from political trade issues.

Life is a rollercoaster, and I'm ready to get off of the ride!

Lately things have been entirely too chaotic and I’m just in desperate need of some sleep, some catharsis, something else? At least my classmates are finally participating in the assignment. It needs to be finished before I can start my final for my survey class…

Spring Cleaning: A Millennial’s Quest to Battle the Uprising of Sentient Socks, Survive the Graveyard of Unfinished Coffee Cups, and Topple the Tower of Boxes Infiltrating My Home One Amazon Order at a Time

It’s that time of year again, the time for spring cleaning. The season of fresh air and chirping birds is here. You also realize that your home is a battlefield of forgotten clutter. There are laundry piles that seem to breed when you’re not looking. A few unfinished beverage cans and coffee cups are scattered across every surface. They are potential booby traps for “future you” to worry…

BOUNTIFUL SOUL

The story of my evolution isn't one of absolution, but of resolve and resolution, of my passion and chagrin to feel such pain and vexation to kneel and beg for all I've sinned. No penance and no persecution for the vapid, disillusioned. Keep your God and your excuses, keep your "rational" abuses. Keep your water and your wine, your sacraments and your divine. So I've made a few poor choices, overcame and have rejoiced them, with no thanks to your Holy Voices. I love the land beneath my feet, walk hand in hand with honesty and take the path that honors me. Living with integrity, living as I stand and breathe, as I feel, and love and grieve. As my will and my desire, forsaking all that you admire, rejecting all that you require. Praising that which can inspire.

Undecided on a title thus far

I've been writing down my dreams I've been living for the sleep The invitation of your screams And the secrets they will keep You've been staying in my mind You've been playing hard to get But of all the things I find The thing I haven't is regret Am I living, am I a dream? Am I just your fantasy? Is this world all it seems? Could all of this really be? I've been seeing things around I've been hearing voices talk They are always to be found And they follow where I walk You've been wasting all my days You've been talking in my sleep Trying to lead me astray Crocodile tears you weep Am I living, am I a dream? Am I just your fantasy? Is this world all it seems? Could all of this really be? What is real I cannot tell What is honest cannot be Can you hear the voices yell? Do you really even see? Am I living, am I a dream? Am I just your fantasy? Is this world all it seems? Could all of this really be?

Sex is a physical classification based on anatomical structure and reproductive function. Gender is an environmentally influenced group of characteristics.

Thinking of a person as a man or woman isn’t as clear when gender is in question. Where do we derive our sense of gender roles, and what societal function do they serve in modern culture? When gender, ego, and sexual orientation are stripped away from us more often than not we stand exposed as blatantly male and female. Who decides the appropriate behavior of each classification?

Gender identity is something I will admit to struggling with. Aside from perception and physiological responses stemming from chemical secretions of body, what difference is there to be found between genders? These subtle behavioral and cognitive factors are widely disputed and only account for a portion of what we consider being man or woman consists of. The rest seems to be socially/culturally driven. Seperating anatomy from the equation leaves us with the essence of how we perceive ourselves.

Society tends to view duality in a negative light. People crave duality though. C. G. Jung even came up with terms for the parts of personality which reflect the qualities of the opposite gender. In Asian culture there is Yin and Yang. In our society there appears to be a trend amongst many individuals who deny themselves acceptance and expression if self outside of the rigid confines of gender roles- sometimes poorly conceived ideas of what appropriate behavior should be based on the anatomy they possess.

Should my vagina really be the polarizing factor in my lifestyle?

OVERCOMING INNER DEMONS

The monster inside of the mirror slaps you in the face Giving you a rather rude awakening Although this enlightenment never seems to stay around for long Slowly the message is sticking with you Each day the image changes more and more Until it is no longer the monster you once tried to hide from The shadow of it still lingers there It taunts you as it always has But the truth has finally started to shine through And you don't believe the words the monster says

SHAMEFACED

So blinded by the sight of your mediocrity Passion wasted on your superficial dreams Think you're so clever Well I'd never dare Endeavour with such thoughtless goals in mind A true nuisance, empty, useless Echoes pass between your ears Wind your curls and bind your soul This life of lacking takes a toll Never sever all your ties Flaws? So called but not so wise Cosmetic lies to hide behind, I find Yet I'm just blinded while you're blind

MONEY

I am perfect It is a fact Because I say so And if I wasn't perfect That sort of reasoning would be flawed My ego isn't too much It's just right, like me I am better than every thing else Practically a deity I am not only perfect, but I am divine I think I'll change my name... That's it! My name will henceforth be True Divine Saint of Flawless Perfection And, since I am perfect, that statement is not redundant I'm sort of confused by the lack of bowing here... Where is my worship? Um.. Excuse me, shouldn't you be kissing me, or building me a temple? Come on! Worship me! Now go out and spend!

Live for the sake of loving. Love is the most freeing, most nurturing, most beautiful act. Love as often as you can, as many as you can. No person or agency can force you to love or force you to stop loving. No government can tax your ability to love.
