My Infertility Journey
It's weird to me how sometimes your body just knows when there are going to be complications. From my teenage years, I was afraid that I would struggle with infertility. At the age of 20, I began fertility testing as I had already been unsuccessfully trying to get pregnant for over a year. Sadly, an unfortunate event when I was seventeen landed me with an STI that when untreated can cause damage to reproductive organs. I am unaware how long I had the STI, but immediately got treatment for it. The first treatment, however, was unsuccessful and I had to go through it again to fully get rid of it. The STI was asymptomatic with me, so if I didn't start fertility testing I may have never known.

Sleepless in Solitude
I hear people talking about how they have to be in bed by 10pm for example, and they start their days at 5, 6am. Oh, they are so exhausted and cannot wait for bed but their cat was purring all night or the dog was upset so they did not sleep well. They need a cup of coffee to get their energy back and wake up. Oh dear, sorry love.

Count Basil
For whatever reason, some stories beckon to be told, retold, over and over again; perhaps the residue of our memories brings back laughter from a place that stores our tears as well; a time when all seemed easy, or easier than now. The complexities of nostalgia circle around us yearning, tugging like children on our shirtsleeves to play; irresistible reminders from far away, yet familiar as the return of March. If we are as lucky as the Irish, the season of renewal rolls around once more. Why this memory; I don't know.

The Expectation. Content Warning.
In the quaint little town of Willowbrook, nestled between rolling hills and dense forests, there was an air of anticipation that hung heavy in the crisp autumn air. It was the eve of the annual Harvest Festival, a tradition that had been celebrated for generations. As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting hues of orange and pink across the sky, the townsfolk buzzed with excitement, preparing for the festivities that would commence with the dawn. Among the villagers was young Emily, her eyes sparkling with eagerness as she helped her mother decorate their modest cottage with strings of colorful paper lanterns and fragrant autumn flowers. Emily had always cherished the Harvest Festival – it was a time when the community came together to celebrate the bountiful harvest and give thanks for the blessings bestowed upon them.
