The Hardest Part of Saying What You Mean

by Daniel on August 18, 2020 posted in People

I’ve started more than a hundred articles that never saw the light of day. Sound extreme? 

It is. And yet, it’s completely reasonable. As I’ve aged, I see the world differently. I see my role in this world much differently. And I can’t justify mouthing off at 43 like I did at 33.

Even In Dark Depression, Hope Springs

by Daniel on May 11, 2020 posted in People

Life introduced me to depression in the second grade. My parents decided to pull us out of the only school I’d ever known and move us to another city. Halfway through the school year. I was placed in an unsafe environment and I was clearly marked as the enemy.
