High and Mighty
published 18. January 2023
Not all monsters resemble the stereotypical supernatural, mythical beast, look like the devil, or have colossus abnormalities.
These monsters are far more predictable than childhood fairy tales and Hollywood movies that are simply derived from someone's imagination, which helps bring a story to life.
The most dangerous monsters are the ones we innocently pass by every day in the streets, and perhaps even talk to.
These monsters can form part of our daily routine. They could be a complete stranger on public transport, work in an office, a school, or even be a customer in a local bar. They could be a relative, distant or close, someone we eat meals with, or spend considerable time with.
These are the monster who are careful about how they reveal themselves, and how they integrate into our world and our lives. We don't always know they're monsters until it's too late.
A Propagation of Lies
published 16. June 2023
Life galloped me down a different path after I was taken from High and Mighty. This new path was not one of my own choosing, not my path to live. It took me downwards, into a deep, dark place, where the very people who were supposed to love me, to show me kindness and guide me, were the ones who kept me buried, suffocated and alone.
I had to fight to find my own path, and learned many hard lessons along the way. There was no way of knowing that my journey of growth would be so uncomfortable, so painful, and no matter how scared I was, or how dark and dangerous my life became, I knew I had to keep on going.
Despite how desperate my life became, I knew that in order to grow, I had to keep moving, and to keep going forward if I wanted to survive.
When it Wasn't Love
published 16. March 2024
A desperate escape from what should have been home. Aged just eighteen, I thought of myself as an adult, grown up. I had to run, put an end to all the years of abuse and neglect I'd suffered at the hands of others.
But I was wrong. It didn't matter how far I ran, what distance I put between myself and the people who'd hurt me. I had naively thought all the emotional baggage would be left behind with all the belongings I wasn't able to take with me.
I thought my own attempts at love would help to heal my heart and past traumas. I wanted nothing more than to feel good enough. To be loved, and to be able to give love in return.
But love is never that simple. Not for anyone.
Being independent and free came at a heavy price. I was far too ill-prepared to deal with such things. And to fully understand when it wasn't love.
