The Geography of Memory
My dad’s mind had become a broken map. The places he once knew by heart—my mom’s name, our street, my own face—were turning into blank, unfamiliar spaces. Alzheimer’s is a thief, but it doesn’t just take the big things. It starts by picking the pockets of a life, stealing car keys, coffee recipes, and the punchlines to his favorite old jokes. What’s left is a confusing, heartbreaking landscape, with these awful, lightning-flash moments where he seems to remember everything, which is somehow even worse than the forgetting.

10 Luxurious Yet Affordable Self-Care Rituals You’ll Actually Keep
I first noticed her on a Sunday morning train to the city. She wore oversized sunglasses and a wool coat that looked like it belonged in a Parisian boutique. But it wasn’t the outfit that caught my attention it was her calm. She sat there, tea in hand, scrolling through her phone with a kind of deliberate stillness that felt rare. Not hurried. Not stressed. Just… in control.

Surviving Surgery
So I survived having half my thyroid removed from my body. It’s kinda crazy to think that I had my throat cut open and something that was a part of my was removed. The only evidence that it was ever there is the nice little scar they left on my neck. I like to joke that you should see the other guy. Even though it was something that was causing me problems, and is a great thing that it is gone, it’s still weird to think about how it is gone. It had been apart of me for my entire life until now. The stiffness in my neck every time I try to move is the only reminder of what I went through. The past life I lived ailed by this thing in my neck that didn’t want me to live a normal life. It’s a weird metaphor I know and maybe i am overthinking this.
