Originally published February 25, 2018, this piece gives a bit of insight into how I was processing my recent divorce and subsequent search for self and others amongst the "ruins" of my former life.

It is still quite meaningful to me today; it is actually quite validating to read these words and see the progress I have made towards some of the goals I set for myself. I am very grateful to … Continue reading Poetry Reading – “The Light of a Good Day”
