Embarrassment
Starr Theory
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Well I am one to disagree personally; when you realize what space is you will be rushed with the feeling of euphoria beyond belief. I’ve had much fear of death recently after hardship and loss, and I went to the deepest and darkest depths of my soul. I was lost in this world and I think we all feel the same. The yearning for more, the need for validation, the desire for love, the list could go on for years. We all feel it and we all receive these gifts differently. However, it’s not just gifts we receive, and sometimes we feel hopeless. We kill ourselves slowly with cigarettes or quickly with a bullet to the dome. These experiences are all fully necessary in life as they are all different. They are all unique paths with unique stories to tell and they should be shared.

The King of Nightmares
You were just a child, a person like me. Stupid and clueless with a world for you to be free. I was in hiding while you were experiencing, bad and good you explored a world that became your FREE; DOMinating others with your strength and ignorance, your confidence has built while you grew distant from me. Separate from life, you played house, I became caretaker while the word “husband” was in your mouth. Never been loved while you experienced it pure, still, we were apart, while you experienced love more. Spent most of my 20s away from wedding bells, while I struggled for money and saved a mother from hell.

Strippers and tax deductions
As someone that is an extreme introvert, I often struggled to just walk up to people and commence a conversation. Then I joined the police force and was forced to find ways to talk to people. To this day, much to the dismay of my psychologist, I will use humor to deflect my feelings or to create a persona that allows me to engage with people.

I Am Afraid Of The Dying Process
I am afraid of dying. I have been afraid of dying since I was a kid. It used to be an abstract idea, but now that it is becoming more real, my fear has only grown stronger. As a child, death seemed like something that happened to other people far away from me - and when it did happen to someone close to me, it was always sudden and unexpected. My fear wasn't about what happens after dying; it was more about how much suffering there might be in between life and death.

Why I Am Not Called Grace. Top Story - July 2022.
I think my mom had genuine insight. When she was pregnant with me, she and my dad tossed quite a few names around, trying to decide which ones they like the best. Back in 1947, ultrasound had not yet been invented to determine the sex of the child. Names were guess-work. You decided on two: one boy and one girl. Then you would use the one for that baby once it was born.

Q's That'll Never Get A's. Top Story - July 2022.
People come and go. I get that. Really, I do. The people that come into your life don't necessarily have to give you the reasons as to why they'd want to leave... but I can't help but wonder. I'm sure most people can't help to wonder why a person would want to leave them.

I Felt Something Cold and Squishy Stuck to My Butt Cheek in Bed. Top Story - July 2022.
I spend a lot of time in bed during the course of a normal day. For starters, I’m in it for 7–8 hours each evening while sleeping. Then, I sit on it for much of the day doing my writing with my laptop and my comfy little lap table. My daughter just got me that for Father’s Day and it’s a game changer. It has a little beanbag padding on the underside of it. Stellar Father’s Day gift for a writer.

For the first time in my life, I had a plane malfunction in flight
2021/11/19 (Saturday) from kaohsiung on jal 812 (wave 767-300) to narita airport, Tokyo. In Japan, the weather was not good due to the typhoon and heavy rain near Tokyo. When the plane landed, we could see the cloud was thick, and it was close to the ground after breaking out of the cloud. At this time, the heavy wind and rain jolted the plane severely. Sitting by the window, I could see the obvious water mist floating on the plane engine caused by the strong wind. Almost as I neared the runway, I felt a jolt, the nose of the plane popped, and the engines roared. It was so different from the usual landing that I immediately knew something was wrong. At this time to see the plane obviously pull up and accelerate, and then came the flight attendant's first broadcast: "the plane encountered strong airflow is pulling up, ready to re-enter the landing..." It was 13:50. At the beginning of the heart a little panic, but heard that it was the impact of the airflow put down the heart, thought is also a small episode.

What's the craziest thing you did in high school?
When I was in high school, I was very fond of our English teacher. She just graduated from university and came to our school as an intern. Because of her beautiful fashion, good figure and good personality, many boys in my class like her very much, including me, of course. When I first entered high school, MY English was not good, but in order to see her every day, I began to pretend to recite English words in the park she passed by after work. At the beginning, we just said hello to each other. Later, we gradually saw more and became familiar with each other, so we talked about more things. Later I came to know that she had never been in love when she was in college, because she was conservative when she was in college. She always thought that love in school would not last long, so she did not pay much attention to this aspect. But later she said that it was a pity that she did not have a good memory at her best age. At that time, I was thinking, since teachers think it is a pity not to have a good memory at the best age, then I am not the best age now? I can't let anything happen now that I'll regret later. What would I regret if I thought about it? That must be having a great love story as well as going to a great college. Because my English is not good, SO I study English harder, of course, also because I don't want to let my goddess teacher, I have a poor English impression, that's what I thought at that time. As my obsession with degree of English more and more deep, there is a problem I will directly go to the teacher, then in order to convenient to ask questions, I will add her QQ, so the two of us will chat from offline to online, offline chat is not a line, and a lot of offline embarrassed to talk to him may become easier to open the online. Later, with the improvement of my English level, I became more and more confident in speaking to her. Finally, one day, after talking with her for a long time, I could not help saying what I had always wanted to say to her, which meant that I like you very much, teacher. She just replied with a smile and said, "You are still young, you should study hard." And I said I know, but I really like you, too. She didn't reply again. I thought the whole thing was over. One day, I was late endorsing in the park, when I noticed that she was passing by from work, because we hadn't talked for a while, so we wanted to sit down and talk. After asking each other about their recent situation, they began to talk about my confession with her last time. She said that she did not know how to answer me at that time. She was afraid that her refusal would hurt my heart and affect my study. I saw what she meant, but perhaps because it was late and there was no one around, just the two of us in the dim light. Looked at her beautiful eyes and mouth, I thought tonight if I don't kiss her, absolutely after may regret it, there is absolutely no chance, so I just took advantage of her when you talk directly with the hand holding her head on her mouth, close up, although she has some struggle, but I still got the nerve to kiss for a moment to let go, then she looked at me angrily. I could only smile at her apologetically, and she left without saying anything.
