  • When I was a kid we’d watch America’s Most Wanted because we had like 5 channels because cable TV was so expensive. It would make me terrified watching these “real life monsters.” Then around that time we also lived sorta near where the DC Sniper was active and it just was terrifying to think about as a kid especially with the news talking nonstop about them. Then our house got burglarized and now I just have a paranoia that can get extremely intrusive. It’s taken a while for me to really get control over it and know how to manage it without severe anxiety. Dumb stuff like having a set hand motion every time I lock my car so I don’t question myself and return to double check.














  • There was once a man who chopped logs for his village. Day in and out he would carry the firewood on his back, but as time went on he grew weaker and more frail. One day he grew tired and threw down the wood and called out for death to come to him. When death arrived he asked what the old man wanted and after pondering for a while he asked death to help him put the logs on his back. When faced with death he had realized he wasn’t ready to die.
