A place for readers. A place for writers. A place for thinkers.
The goal of writing (atop other subgoals, let’s say) is to convey one thing that is true. Just one. Obviously, writing a piece containing nothing but truth would be nice, but we are incapable of duplicating something like the Bible, so there goes that.

Not to blast my own audience, but I’ve come to realize that while people will read books, they don’t “log on” to the internet to read novels. Anything outside of 140 characters takes up too much time. This, I understand, as even I will see the headline of an article and immediately assume that I’ve…

The Mind From a Dark Room Pt. 1 – “The Pick Me Boy” – wysb.me (whatsyourstorybro.com) All I am positing is that while mental suicide is but a few doors down from the physical, which, admittedly, has me quite fearful, there is logic in jumping off. No, I shall never do it, or at least…

“You know Paul… There’s a lot of hurt and pain here,” he said. “From what I’m hearing, there’s definitely a questioning of your self-worth. Does it feel like, perhaps, you may feel that you’re not worthy of being loved?” And that hit me. It was all the words I had felt but never was able…
