We did it. We accomplished the impossible. The mythical island of Atlantis stretched before us, now a reality. Vibrant and teeming with life. The island is more alive than I could have imagined. When first recruited to join a small team of archeologists on this expedition, I envisioned we’d spend months diving down into deepContinue reading “Inside Atlantis”

Our Four Legged Friends
There exist stories of the infamous black dog who mercilessly drags spirits like mine through the muckiest of muds and the murkiest of puddles. Impartial jowls dripping and dragging along with them. Pulling those poor souls away from themselves. Souls who believed they never stood a chance to begin with. Yet there comes a momentContinue reading “Our Four Legged Friends”

A common aphorism found in many songs, books, romantic comedies and the like. At first glance it may not appear particularly special, but if you diveContinue reading “Us Against The World”

I have been under the impression that an employer provided health plan is intended to be a benefit of employment, not a tool for control. IContinue reading “Our Body Is Not Your Religion”
