Passion
Passion. Some days, I feel that word is overrated. I mean, what is passion? Who defines it? Passion; feels like an all-consuming fire that envelops all your hopes and dreams. It can burn as brightly as you want it, or it can burn down everything you were working towards. Even though we strive for passion, passion can kill us. It's not always worth it, even when it feels like it is.

Snow in the Grand Canyon
I never thought I would be so lucky to see snow in the Grand Canyon. You see, after our eventful trip in Las Vegas, we were on the road back to El Paso and somewhere along the line we thought it would be a great idea to take a detour to the Grand Canyon. Once we made it through the rest of Nevada and made our workaround towards Flagstaff, we happened upon the strangest thing we had ever seen: snow in Arizona. Apparently it’s not unusual, but for us, snow is rare. All I ever knew about Arizona was desert, cacti, and Eleanor Shellstrop from “The Good Place”.

Habits
It was five o’clock in the afternoon when my phone went off, my mother’s name on the screen. It was rare for my mother to call me unless it had something to do with family or the holiday season. Looking up from my dinner and paperwork, I narrowed my eyes at the calendar; it was still one month until Thanksgiving.

Our First Married Christmas. Top Story - December 2021.
When I said "I do" three months ago, I knew that everything was changing for the better. I got to marry my best friend! I know I wasn't the first person in the entire world to do it, but when our friend, our officiant, said, "you may kiss the bride", I felt like we were the only two people on the planet.
