This coming Friday, August 5, 2022, I'll be turning yet another year older (44), and you would think that, as time goes by living without you by my side, would get easier; however, it hasn't gotten any easier for me, at all. I miss you, Jeremy James, with every single day that goes by.

The entire first year after you passed, all I wanted to do was die, but I'm still here without you; I've gotta say, 'That's not fair'. You left home, on the way to another job, but you never came back. Your ashes made it to me, but that's not the way I prefer you, which is alive, and right by my side. Instead, I walk this world alone, no matter who I've got beside me. You were my pilot through life, that job belongs to someone else now, but you'll always be guiding my heart.

Joe,

Wikacy is back up and running, so I've asked for someone to remind me how to share the links. "Forgetful Jones", should have been my name...ha, ha, ha, but seriously, I'll send you the info as soon as I hear back from one of my fellow associates on the site.

Sounds good :-)

Joe,

Wikacy, the website where I do my writing has been taken off the internet, it's happened before, but as soon as it's back online, I'll send the link.

Penny,

Yes, I would very much like to read what you have written.  Please do send your link :-)

Joe,

I wish I had a knack for writing music, I do have one for singing, but can only do it if I'm singing with the artist. If I'm singing by myself, I cannot hold a tune in bucket. My father used to play in several different bands when I was a kid, but his alcoholism got him kicked out of each of them.

IF you'd like to read what I've written I can shoot you the link to my author page.

Penny,

That is amazing, impressive and quite prolific writing!  I wish I had such a talent.  I find a great deal of contentment in writing music.  It has been a real sanctuary for me over the last couple of years.

Good luck with your continued writing and hopefully we'll see it in the online stores :-)

And good luck with finding someone who you can feel content and be yourself with!  I think everyone deserves that.

Assumptions

An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true.  Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions.  This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More

Sibling Loss

This group is for anyone that has lost a brother or sister. Sibling loss is often minimized and people don't realize how devastating losing a sibling can be. I lost my older sister and my life will never be the same. She was my only sibling, I looked up to her, I went to her for everything. I lost my past, present and future. It is traumatic.See More

Triggers Continue to Surface

Late February is a challenging time of year for me.  Jen’s birthday is the 23rd and serves as an annual reminder of all of the potential that was lost…Her’s (mainly), mine, the world’s honestly.  This year she would be 52…It is increasingly hard to imagine, through all of the iterations possible, what she could have become, what was to be her (significant) impact on the world.That being said, things, emotions, have largely settled down since I committed a potential version of what could have…See More
