A Fun Stress Relief Game
One of the things I started doing to manage my stress during school was to play video games. I started playing this game called MyOasis. It’s supposed to help with anxiety relief and relax and calm your mind. Things are not nearly as hectic, but I still log in to decompress from the day. IContinue reading “A Fun Stress Relief Game”
Sunday Solitude
Earlier this week, I was wondering if there was something wrong with the way I take solitude. I wondered if maybe I should be out there more and take less solitude.

Happy Father’s Day

Gentle Reminder
“Tyrants always fear art because tyrants want to mystify while art tends to clarify.
