Thank you, Adira! Writing this made me feel much like an old wise man… lmao. And I hope I can benefit from it as well and write more inspirational pieces!

Read MoreNightmarish! Every night I'm visited by the cold hands of my past. Nightmares! This unending cycle of victimhood, I fear will never end. Nightmare! One bad memory in one bad dream, I will have forever.

Of course very relatable to me as well as I am estranged from every group of people I referred to in this piece. Then you know Adira, how liberating it is to let go… and be your own person completely! Thanks!

hello dearest Daniel this is really good…darkness and light I’m afraid are one… in the lowest depths of hell God is there also not as religion preaches but there none the less 💕

Love your comments, Brenda. Darkness and light coexist, indeed. Religion is so fun to play with creatively! Thank you!

Thanks as always, Damian! Heavy fucking write and powerful, indeed! I was once told by a wise man, also a writer, who said to me, “Whatever it is you write down, make it goddamn prophetic!” I’ve always kept that in mind over the years and the more I remember it, the better my writing becomes. True story…
