addiction

The realities of addition; the truth about living under, above and beyond the influence of drugs and alcohol.

WHEN A CRY FOR HELP BECOMES A CRIME
Since when did a cry for help become a reason for ridicule? Since when did admitting that you are frightened, struggling, broke, exhausted, or desperate become an invitation for judgment, condemnation, and contempt?

NARCISSISTS FORCE YOU INTO ALIGNMENT WITH GOD
There is an ancient mystery: if God is everything, where does the darkness belong? In the beginning, there was darkness—and God said, Let there be light. The universe itself seems to speak in this language: light and shadow, death and renewal, creation and dissolution. Even the yin-yang carries the paradox: each contains a seed of the other.

Girl Overboard
You spend enough time around people and you start to notice how often they talk about peace like it’s the ultimate goal. Soft mornings. Early nights. Clean kitchens. Balanced lives. Calm minds. Everyone trying to quiet themselves down enough to finally feel okay.

Margaux Hemingway was living your Instagram feed in '75. And it killed her.
Long before the curated life was old money, a Hemingway was dying inside of it. A ‘soft girl era’ is trending across Pinterest and Instagram, a minimal aesthetics filled with photos of your most simplest moments; a morning latte, a phony ‘candid’ photo, a psychology book intentionally placed on your sofa. Intimate aspects of life that were once kept private are now shared with the world. But this trend isn’t new. Before supermodels and their lavish lifestyles we see today, there was Margaux Hemingway—the striking ‘face’ of the ‘70s generation when it came to fashion and modeling. Her intimidating and mysterious aura captivated women globally. The media turned her into the muse you aspired to be.
