Sex: It's great; everyone likes it. But not everyone likes it the way I do. Mainly because not everyone likes bending their husband over the edge of the bed and spanking him for not doing the dishes. Our sex...
Our story was exactly how I had always envisioned what true love would look like. We met after I had started college, and the attraction was intense. It felt as if we had known each other for years, and...
Some of you act as you've never buried your husband, and it shows. That's why there's an International Widows' Day. To most people, this is just another day. But, to the over 13.7 million widows in the U.S, this...
I just want to close my eyes. Close the blinds, close the curtains, and sit in the dark.
I muster the energy to eat something. Anything. But I can’t. Whatever I ingest will come back up. I feel so weak...
It is Pride Month and for the first time, I will be celebrating this month as a member of the LGTBQ+ community. This is my coming-out story.

Growing up I was the quintessential girly girl. I loved playing dolls and dress-up, which fed into reading every Teen Girl magazine I could get my hands on in middle school. I wanted to be beautiful. I wanted to...
