Confidence
Break. Confidence. In what do we place our confidence? In what do we place our trust? It is fairly mainstream to say “confidence is key.” and as far as the world is concerned that is perfectly right.

Idols

We do not know how closely we hold our idols till they are torn away from us. With them come skin, hair, blood. They have grown into us, or we into them. Like a tree wrapped in wire, we take them into ourselves strangling slowly over decades. How it hurts. Being saved, the cutting away…

More musings on road blocks
a rough musing this time around, I don’t feel like editing it. so don’t judge me to harshly. Nothing crushes the spirit of progress more than the understanding that you are writing trash. I have a desperate fear that I am not on the right path. My writing is waning, not waxing. No eloquence is…
