I went through old photos tonight that were sitting out on the table here at my grandparents and I realized that I don’t have near enough pictures of myself with the people I love. Tomorrow I start my first day of teaching. I’m supposed to write a wonderfully detailed story about all the emotions I’m [...]
Dear You, I know exactly where I’m standing and exactly where you are. And while I’m trying to find myself, I’m not sure if you’ll ever really need me. I sleep. I wake. But in the mirror I still can’t see my reflection. And all these messages that seek direction aren’t getting me anywhere but [...]

It’s kind of a sad day. I’m packing up my apartment and getting ready to say goodbye to Houston. It’s not the best city in the country, but it’s pretty damn awesome. I discovered a lot in the two years I lived here. There’s some beautiful parks intertwined in this concrete jungle and so much [...]
