True Freedom in Structure
Do you have things constantly yapping around your head, begging for your attention? “Ohh, I NEED to do blank by blank but ALSO I’ve been wanting to do X this month and I never get the time, and I know I want to make more time for family, and I wanted to plan this trip, learn this new skill, work at changing jobs, etc etc ETC."

The Science of Souls
What if I told you that reincarnation is a real scientific subject of study? Not kidding. Not too long ago, I read a book by Jim. B. Tucker called Return to Life in which he recounted his work, first under Ian Stevenson who died in 2007, and then on his own, to get to the bottom of why so many young children seemed to know things it was impossible for them to know about a past life they insisted they had lived.

conflagration
A Zodiac Love Poem From Me to Me A/N: I’ve always been one of those people who felt I matched my sun sign, Aquarius, really well in regard to both the positives and the negatives. Creative, open-minded? Yes. Aloof/detached at times and stubborn? Also yes. When I first found out my moon sign a year ago though, I didn’t get it. Aries? Hot-headed, impulsive, entrepreneurial Aries?? But reading into it deeply really helped me see how this side of me manifested in my closest personal relationships and allowed me to understand myself on a deeper level. It also prompted me to think about how these dual aspects of me- sun and moon- play together and inform one another when it comes to living life in my own way and my drive to achieve my goals. This poem is like a conversation between my sun and moon, a meeting and a melding of purpose.

Jailbreak
As usual, Sasha runs away before dawn. She forces her eyes open at the sound of the vibrating alarm clutched under her stomach and stares hazily at the darkness of her room. The moon is still silhouetted in the sky outside as she slides to the edge of her bed, listening for any sound from her parents’ room.

Permission to Just be Okay
Can I be honest about something? I’m kind of a slut for New Year’s. All of the pomp and occasion and counting down and champagne (sometimes too much of that one, whoops) and - and - well, especially and- the way I let myself completely and utterly off the hook until the ball drop.
