A New Schnikism: (Poetry Series) This is How I Rise
I am strong enough, I keep trying to be stronger every day. I am loved deeply, I keep telling myself this so I don’t lose the horizon. I am hopeful every day, I keep wishing if I say it enough, I will believe it. I am greater than my mistakes, I […]

Photo of the Day – Winter’s Last Punch?

Quote of the Day – Jonathan Lethem on Emotive Spinning
The world keeps spinning, faster and faster, we’re just trying to hold on. 🙂 My inner chemistry had been hijacked by a mad scientist, who poured the fizzy, volatile contents of my heart from a test tube marked SOBER REALITY into another labeled SUNNY DELUSION, and back again, faster and faster, until the floor of […]
