It was pointed out to me, not necessarily by a someone, but rather a some-thing, that my light and fun personality has had a dark cloud overshadowing it. Some of my followers here have seen my mood shift a few times, but this time I'm afraid it's shifted too far into the dark. I don't like being in this place so here I am, making my way back into the lighter parts of life. Sometimes I forget to stop worrying about tomorrow; I dwell on yesterday far more than one should. I need to enjoy the here and now and I've nearly forgotten how. Luckily, I have journals, pictures, and memories to help guide me back to happy. It's time I learn to enjoy what's in front of me.

On another note, I had the main editor of my college newspaper contact me directly; she loved my memoir so much she wants to publish it. she also wants to discuss the possibility of me writing for the paper, a weekly story or something like it. This made me happy. Words make me happy and putting words together in a way that pleases other people and/or makes them think is one thing I thoroughly enjoy. I'll add a link to the memoir for those of you interested in reading it. http://lucidwriting.blogspot.com/2016/09/flash-memoir.html

I'm still nursing a bit of a heartache from chasing after someone I knew better than to chase, but this opportunity, my art, and my desire to bring back the happy side of me is keeping me motivated. I love this space, here in SG. I feel at home here.
