If I Knew What I Know Now
If I Knew Then What I Know Now. There are days where I think way too much about what I didn’t know in the past. I wonder if I would make the same mistakes just because I know it’ll be alright, or if I would avoid them altogether. I don’t know if I would fuck…

Trapped
Trapped. Even though I like to consider myself free, I feel I’m a prisoner of my thoughts. My thoughts make me believe that I can’t do anything. The same thoughts that make me believe that I cannot fail. My mind is always in a constant battle with itself, and I can only stand as a…

Better
How often have we heard someone say that their partner, their family member, or their friends deserve better? I think I’ve caught myself saying this often. “She deserves better.” Such a stupid saying. It’s so much easier wishing for someone else to come into their life than to be the person because that would take…

Questions
Do we see our lives flash before our eyes before our last breath? Do we get hints at death before actually going through it? Is there a way to escape death? How often do we escape death without realizing it? Is there a better way we can get everybody prepared before it happens? How often…

Injustice
Injustice. By no means am I an expert in talking about this. I have tons of privilege, and I’m aware that I am luckier than most people and don’t have to experience as much as others do. I know that there are people that have much less than I do, and they experience racism on…

To My Three-Year-Old
Before I get started, I feel like I should tell you that I get a little nervous when I write to you every year. I know it seems silly because, at this point, you’re just a part of my imagination, but I get super excited thinking about you. I think you should know that. Maybe…

100 Years
I think I’ve said it a few times now, but I don’t see myself reaching the age of 50. There are times where I imagine myself getting to 100, though. I don’t know why, but I just can’t picture it. I’ve had visions of having children, and that’s what terrifies me. I’m scared of not…

Little Bro
Hey Little Bro, I know you’re probably wondering why I’m writing this versus telling you upfront, I don’t know how quite to start this conversation at times. Trust me; it’s something that’s on my mind all of the time. I’m not sure where to start, so I guess I’ll start from the beginning. I think…

To My Two Year Old
To My Two-Year-Old, Hey baby. Congratulations on turning two. I can imagine how overwhelmed you must be feeling, trust me, and I’m probably feeling overwhelmed myself. I’ve done a little bit of studying to understand what you must be going through, and while I can’t be 100% sure, I can at least go by what…

Dear Little Sister
Last night I had a dream that you married some guy. Now that I think of it, I’m not sure if you were getting married that day or if you just let us know that you were about to get married. Either way, I wasn’t a fan. This guy just didn’t seem like the right…
