Blinders off – A soliloquy

People treat the acquisition of wisdom as if were the plague – while the art of basking in ignorance is placed on pedestal. When we deny our contradictions they will mutate into a far more deadly form… Hypocrisy.

Harboring no illusions

I don’t point the finger of accusatory indignation at those who tread a different path than I. Fortunately, I don’t hold myself in that high of an esteem – to graduate to a pedestal – truth be told I’m a “hot mess”. I’ve come to acknowledge my foibles, shortcomings, contradictions and the like as aContinue reading “Harboring no illusions”

Let the wrecking ball swing – An epiphany

An epiphany is tantamount to the sweetest melody. When that chord vibrates, it has the propensity to shake the very foundation of what we consider sacred. Ourselves.
