    Music or bands that changed your life?

    Anybody old enough to know who Counting Crows is will definitely know their song Round Here. This version--at a concert in IA--never fails to touch my heart. Starts at 3:15, but listen to the whole song and you'll find the song to be that much more powerful. Underlines a lot of feelings and...

    A technique that could help anyone.

    Tom, hey buddy. Thank you for bringing this interesting person to my attention. I’m finishing work at the moment but managed to set aside enough time to practice his breathing exercises.

    Feeling like you dont belong

    I have high functioning autism. When I graduated from college I possessed a 3.42 G.P.A., I’m also a published prose poet. Yet, I can’t get a good “career” to support a gold fish; I’m always overlooked. It’s tough knowing you have the skills and abilities yet you’re autism holds you back. And...

    Do you try to seek out older shows that were before your time?

    Please don't commit suicide Thalia. If you do then your dreams will never materialize. I've had many toxic relationships--especially with friends, and its caused a lot of suffering on my part. On my worst days I feel like a disease that should just go away. However, on my positive days what I've...

    Feeling like you dont belong

    So do I. It’s the key to making life more fun and enjoyable in my opinion. I never try acting older or taking myself too seriously. I do have my ups and downs though but who doesn’t. :)

    Weird, Fun, and Unusual Hobbies

    we all have weird, fun, and unusual hobbies. I believe it takes the boredom out of life, shines it like a jewel, and makes it attractive and exciting again. I enjoy collecting weird fiction memorabilia. They range from books, manuscripts, pictures, poetry journals—all authentic and from or...
