Things you ought to know.
Dear 27 year old me, there's something you ought to know. After 28 you'll feel like life is cold as snow. You'll lose your love, your passion, your kindess and sympathy. But please understand that all the anger you feel is only temporary. You'll come to understand that true love isn't lost at all, when you meet a truer constant love, in a hospital. The love you've known this far, is far and few between. And when you both have your first child, you’ll be the happiest you've been.

Dear Vocal. This might be one of the most positive articles I'll ever write. In April 2021, I had a nervous and psychotic breakdown in which I lost my home and a job I loved doing. I lost friends after isolating myself due to confusion and my entire sense of being.
