Intro

Look to your left, then to your right, now just... sit and take in the ephemeral, the non material, the metaphysical. Then notice these transient little things that help us hold our life together when it's all but falling apart at the seams from day to day. all of these things have a story to be told, every single fiber of the carpet you walk on has it's place in life, the streets paved by workers who use the concrete made by a company in some far part of the continent or world.

I live for stories, be it in a book, a song a game or a movie. I also take care of my five Tarantulas, my cat Asmodean. Aptly named for it was born from a cat known as "The Darkness" and fight for my life every day because of my debilitating mental health condition. I have been diagnosed with Schizoaffective Disorder and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder with Depersonalization. Knowing the stigma, generalization and the demonizing going on nowadays i fight to truly educate people about the reality that is Mental Health, the broken Mental Health System and what the media would have you believe.

This is just a short "about me" and introduction to my blog. the former posts that did not have direction have been deleted and after a few enlightening speakers at my writing group and some helpful handouts i have more of an idea of what i should be doing and how to grow and evolve this blog into something helpful, useful, entertaining or what have you? And perhaps share some of my stories and knowledge and garner some from others. I am an ever changing human being filled with all I've been taught, all I've gleaned myself and a drive to learn and experience more.
