    Terrible Totems Feb 16, 2021

    Our earthly possessions are just that, physical things of the earth that we can’t take with us to the next life. What truly matters are our world experiences and what kind of people we are when we interact with others. But often we do place too much value on the things we own, and they can turn into terrible totems, and end up owning us.

    A Wolf In Sheep's Clothing Jan 26, 2021

    The one thing more threatening than a snarling wolf at the door is the one in sheep’s clothing. The unknown threat that you’re not prepared for lurking in your place of sanctuary.

    No Good Deed Jan 19, 2021

    Don’t believe your eyes Jan 05, 2021

    You’re Too Late! Dec 22, 2020

    Don’t Look Too Closely Dec 08, 2020

    It’s easy to get fixated on one thing: one rule, one tale, one person’s point of view. But when we focus on only one thing, we lose sight of the bigger picture. And that can blind us to the dangers around us if we don’t look too closely.

    As Halloween grows closer so do all the scary creatures that come along with it. Scarier than any ghost or mythological monster however, are the evils that people are capable of doing to each other.

    Cold As Death Jun 02, 2020

    The spider’s web that stories create online are spun over and over as they get retold and spread.
