Omg, y'all. I keep popping in here to see how y'all are doing, and wow, I've been missing some serious drama. Hugs to everyone. I am not looking up the drama, nope, nope.

"We will never have a perfect world, but its not romantic or naive to work toward a better one" - Steven Pinker

A Caim. An encircling prayer for all souls on Coso.

Oh Great Creator, a rushing river, encircle us.
Keep love within.
Keep hatred without.
Oh Loving Other, a doves soft feather, encircle us.
Keep gentleness within.
Keep violence without.
Oh Empowering Spirit, encircle us.
Keep hope within.
Keep despair without.

Encircle us, Mighty One!
Protect us from danger
Fill us with joy and
Bless us with peace!

The littlest dog and I are both on Prozac now, we're twinsies.

Reading a book that says the movie Poltergeist is criticized in horror circles because "nothing ever happens" and they must have had their hands over their eyes the whole time. Or maybe are the kind of person who thought The Ring was scarier than Ringu because you don't have to read subtitles.

Thinking of publishing a collection of stories inspired by tarot cards, and am now facing the repercussions of worshiping Emily Dickinson in my teenage years. I found out what a recluse she was, and promptly stopped reading her when I found out she didn't want her work to be read. I silently celebrated her birthday every year, telling no one I did so. Thoughts that mold us.
