  • When I was transported to another dimension. My hometown had black goop falling from the sky and when I looked up, I saw a ceiling made of stone. There were holes in this stone that led up to darkness. The buildings in the small town were changed to ancient stone buildings but retained their layout. When I came out of one after exploring it, the sky had changed from a stone ceiling to planet surfaces that were stuck inside one another. There were also hundreds of lights in the sky that looked like stars and were moving around in front of the planets. It’s not exactly my best dream since I’ve had ones where I was happy, but this one stuck with me the most since its so surreal.





  • To this day, after 30 years, I shy away from relationships. As you did, I grew up with parents fighting, accusations of cheating, tension in the air, picking up the pieces and comforting a parent as a child. I found that I prefer to be alone, not to talk too much, and generally fade into the background. Relationships, especially romantic ones, scare me as I don’t know if I’ll run into the same problem my parents did so I never searched for a romantic one. I don’t know if I’ll be the one making the accusations. I generally think I’m chill and trusting, but I’m scared that the cycle will continue with me and my mind will go to stupid places and I’ll create a relationship not built on trust and love, but suspicion, deciept, and lies. So, now I make a conscious effort to not allow those thoughts to enter. I build every relationship I have, only friendships, on mutual respect for one another and caring for each other. I don’t want to be the accuser in a relationship and repeat the cycle, so I try to be the best friend I can be.














  • My mom, whom I haven’t seen in almost a month, is staying with me for a few days. So, a majority of my day was driving her around and taking her shopping. But, we had a nice lunch, watched The Dark Knight, and she cooked me one of my favourite meals. It was nice to get away from work for a bit and see the sun for once so I had a good day.
