Release Anger During Spring

“‘Being’ means evicting everyone from your inner core, so all that’s left is you.

Now You Ask

Depression, grief, sadness, and pain doesn’t need you to believe in them to exist. I dreamt of a poem about suicide and thought it important to share. Mental health is often overlooked. Why?

I heard many things like, “Cry for a day, and then it’s time to getContinue reading “Using Spirituality to Deny Emotions”
