Heteroflexible and Bisexual
Is there a difference between someone who is bisexual and someone who is heteroflexible? Short answer, yes, there is a difference. It is easy to get the two confused, and honestly, easy to understand why they are easily seen as the same thing by many people.

A 35-Year-Old Virgin Woman Inspired This One
Not too long ago I started watching videos on YouTube from a woman named Lauren Harkins . If you don't know who she is, she has recently made a claim to fame a little by being a 35-year-old virgin woman and talking about how she is happy about it, why she is still a virgin, and so on.

The Echoes
Grief is such a weird thing. It's the empty halls where you once heard their footsteps. The laugh when a joke is told that is missing. It’s the birthday cards full of confetti that you no longer get. It’s all the firsts: the first Christmas they’re gone, the holidays, the birthdays, anniversaries, the ordinary days. It's the echoes that last. It's the rainbow after the rain, the birds singing in the morning, the baby that giggles, and the quiet moments that remind you of their absence. Some days, everything reminds you, and other days, it's just a bittersweet memory.

I Remember It All
We met when I was only 15 A couple of girls in the back of an '89 Bronco seat I was holding his hand but it was you I found Makin silly videos, turnin the speakers up loud We spent every October lookin for a scare blacked out eyeliner and bright colored hair We spent more time together than I ever did with him We swore we were queens and our light would never dim (Chorus) And I remember it all. I remember everything. How a perfect friendship faded into nothing... Ridin in the Bronco just to feel the bass hit We were gonna be forever We were gonna make it Now I'm lookin at the photos of who we used to be Runnin through Yosemite, wild and free Yeah, I remember it all... We grew up fast in the cover of the trees Summers at the lake, Winters in Yosemite sittin in the theatre, Twilight on the screen Blastin Katy Perry, livin in a teenage dream We shared our first drinks. We drew on the walls. We got our first ink. We stood through it all. But lines started blurring and the house started shakin I left Yosemite and our bond started breakin Suddenly, I'm the villain for walkin away from a boy who lied and cheated on me day after day (Chorus) Years flew by and the dust finally settled down We're both married to different people in different towns We barely talk. Worlds apart. Livin separate lives. But the funny thing about how time survives... We both had little girls first holding our hands growing up in a world we could've never planned And I wonder if they'll ever find a bond like ours before the storm came and left us with these scars. 💚🩷 Myspace Youtube Emo clothes and winger liner weirdo selfies photo shoots night clubs trips to Santa Cruz Boomers and the mall SCREAMING Brokencyde hookah lounges haunted houses tongue rings Ouija boards all the firsts... with you. 💚🩷 (Chorus) Now I'm just watching through a rear view mirror It's foggy for you, but for me, it's still so clear Our families are growing, we're livin different lives but a piece of those teenagers always survives Now I'm the bad guy... but I was your best friend I remember it all. Even the end.

Thirty-Eight, Soon to Be Thirty-Nine
Greetings, Vocal readers and subscribers! In nearly three months, I'll be turning 39. Yes, you're seeing this right. I may not look or feel like my age, but I still feel like my youthful self every year. Whenever I go out, most people mistake me as either a high school or college student. Most often, I look like the latter. I don't mind those comparisons, because I could easily pass off as either one. There's less than six months to go until 2026 comes to a close and this year has been going well for me so far. I aim to end 2026 with a bang. The following is a list of things that I'd love to do before I turn 40 in late 2027.

The Only Rebels in Creation
Look up. The sun does not negotiate with the sky. It rises because it must, sets because it must, and in five billion years it has never once asked why . The moon does not resent its borrowed light. It simply reflects, obedient, silent, exact.

Lessons That Continue to Be So Important to Me
Authors Note: Many of the following sayings I don't know who originally said them, but they were all helpful to me in my life! My son was born on July 21, 1978. One month later he stopped breathing. He was diagnosed with sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). His father and I were struggling in our marriage. We went to a marriage counselor who told us she couldn't help us and she gave us meeting lists and a chemical dependency assessors name and information. She said to work with us would be like pounding our heads against the wall and we wouldn't get anywhere. I started meetings that week. Our son turned 48 this week. In one month, I will have been in recovery for 48 years. My husband went into treatment soon after. During our marriage he went to treatment five times. We divorced; he remarried and had another child. He died from the illness at age 46. Some of the things I learned are below. And like it says above, I am still learning.

I’ve been trying to write this for ages but it’s never flowed from me the way I wanted it to. A while back I was having a conversation about women and how men treat them. My ex friend suddenly said in the midst of our conversation

The Two Biggest Regrets in My Life
Regrets: we all have them. There's that one thing that we wished we'd pursued earlier in our lives. Obtaining that degree, traveling more, and standing up for yourself more are some of those examples. I have a huge dislike of Father's Day because of the abuse I've suffered in the hands of my estranged father dating back to childhood. No matter how hard I tried to please him, he still wouldn't show me any sort of love. That lead me to have abandonment and trust issues later on in life. We've been estranged for nearly 15 years and there are no signs of us ever reconciling anytime soon.

Coffee Chats
Sunday morning rain is falling and I'm calling out to you Singing, "someday it will bring me back to you", yeah Join me in having a cup of coffee (or whatever beverage you prefer) this beautiful Sunday morning. I am currently drinking a cup of cold coffee that I could probably reheat in the microwave, and sitting down at my computer to write something for Vocal. It's one of those quiet and slow Sunday's where I have no real plans of leaving the house. I can just sip my cold coffee and simply be a person.
