The Order of Care
Angel works the day shift at his local neighborhood animal shelter and begins his day the same way every day. Consistency is not a preference but a method. He clocks in at 7:00 a.m., places his lunch on the left shelf, second position, in the refrigerator, and ties his apron with a double knot that can be untied quickly. The animal shelter requires procedures; Angel requires them to function efficiently.

The House at the End of Hawthorn Lane
Gail Sullivan’s house sat like a sealed envelope at the end of Hawthorn Lane, addressed to no one and opened by none. The curtains never moved. The gate never creaked.

They said she had learned of his betrayal and answered it with precision, increasing the dosage of his daily medications until his heart complied. They noted her grief had sharpened into something dark.

Operating Manual for a Child
This manual exists because the world you are entering forgot how to slow down. It will try to train you before you know your own name, shaping you through screens, incentives, and noise long before you can name what any of it means. These instructions are not meant to control you. They are intended to keep you intact long enough for you to choose who you want to become.

Surviving Winter
For as long as I can remember, winter has felt more like an opponent than a season. The cold bites sharply, days shrink quickly, and the long gray skies often dampen my mood. Despite resisting winter’s hold, I’ve lived mainly in a climate with brief warm springs and summers. Over time, I’ve learned that while I may never enjoy the cold, I can develop creative strategies to get through it. What began as simple coping methods evolved into a conscious, effective seasonal survival plan—centered on travel, socializing, physical activity, and small rituals that warm both body and mind.
