Telling Myself I’m Not Falling for Her
It’s the second year of college. I’m young, questioning everything and have no idea I am gay. And then I saw her. Tall, blonde, curvy, tattoos, piercings.. she was the definition of perfection. I knew a couple things in that moment.. 1) yep, I am gay 2) I knew she was going to be an important part of my story. Now, I just needed to find a way to talk to this goddess.

Crime Stoppers
Tw: Murder The daring young pup knew he could save the day.. he needed help from his much older and crankier Corpal and that was going to be the hardest part of this task. What did this young pup need to do? Oh, just save the city. That’s all. But we are getting ahead of ourself. The daring young pup is Drake, he is strong, smart and of course, daring. The older Coropal is Ruge. He is cranky but was one hell of a cop, is super smart and really does care about his friends.. he just has a weird way of showing it. Drake knew he needed Ruge to help him save their city. The only problem? They were talking dogs in an underground department because the city was full of humans that didn’t know doggos could talk. It was going to be an interesting time.

Falling for Her
She grabbed my wrist and pulled me behind the door. She closed the door and pulled my shirt up at the same time. I wasn’t sure if I was dreaming or if my crush was really doing this to me. I tried to think of ways to figure out which it was .. then it hit me.. just shut up, this is happening! I was really making out with my crush. I tangled my hands in her soft, blonde hair and kissed her deeper. I felt her hands sliding down my back. My breathing got heavier and I knew what was about to happen.

Mental Health; It is more than Depression
This is a hard one to write. But it feels important. Hi, my name is Sara and I have hallucinations. We (meaning my psychiatrist, therapist and I) have an inkling of what causes it but nothing diganosed. I was ashamed to admit I had these up until this last year. I finally admitted it and got on medication that has helped them almost disappear. So let’s get into it.

Can You Pour From an Empty Cup?
Our world is in a state of chaos. It is hard to ignore. Between the Ukraine invasion, Roe V. Wade and all that jazz and these mass shootings in Buffalo and Uvalde. It is a lot to take in and take on. Especially if you are like most people and you are empathetic. I took all of this on and it spiraled me into a deep depression for months. I quit taking care of myself. I had therapy and my therapist gave me some great advice that I wanted to pass on. "You need to take care of yourself so you can be a light in the dark world. Own the truth and move forward." We can recognize and feel what is going on and then we need to take care of ourselves first and foremost.

Coming Out
In honor of Pride month, this is my coming out. Hi, my name is Sara and I am Gender Fluid and Pansexual. Basically this means I go by any pronouns (but I prefer they/them) and some days I feel like a woman and others I have no gender or feel like a guy. It is usually no gender but I feel exceptionally like a woman or guy other days. Pansexual means I like everyone, gender doesn't matter to me. I think there is a deep power in finding who you are, accepting who you are and running with it.

Mental Illness Doesn't Need to be Fought Alone
Depression hits different these days. I used to not clean my room and not leave for months on end. Now, it is more robotic. I didn't wash my hair for almost 2 weeks, but I showered every day. I don't eat, but I have been drinking water and protein shakes. I still do the things that make me feel good, I just do them a little more sad.

Forbidden
There weren't always dragons in the Valley. Not until a beautiful princess moved into the old castle. It had always been rumored that there was a princess that had lost her parents very young and had been taken away from the castle. The castle and Valley had been quiet since then. But about 21 years later, the princess showed back up. She quietly moved into the castle and never caused an issue. But now the dragons were becoming more and more obvious. This fantasy world was meant to stay hidden but the princess refused to stay hidden. She was quiet, but she was powerful.
