And she is back…

 so its been a hot minute since I have had the desire, inspiration or mindset to sit and write,

I had a month or so of heavy depression weighing me down, returning to mahi wasn’t helping and everyday was feeling like a battle.  My job, sadly, has always been my source of pride and joy and despite, outwardly what seemed to be a great environment, it wasn’t. 

But not to dwell, I went to my GP and she has put me on Prozac…something i have spend my life trying to avoid…and fuck it, it’s working.  Though I must say, it’s aligned with quitting the old job and walking into a new job, so perhaps a combination of circumstance and medication, either way, for the first time in a long time I feel like a weight is off my chest.  I am sleeping better, I can get up in the morning, I haven’t needed painkillers for my wrist in 3weeks and I am excited to go to mahi, I am welcomed into the environment, my co workers seem to actually like me.  I no longer feel like I am wearing a mask.

So, although I wont get ahead of myself…be prepared for me to be back on my bullshit

Have a beautiful day and remember, trust your gut, follow those instincts, live your life

SINNERS - a review

There are classic movies for every generation and then there are classic movies for every genre. SINNERS is a movie that is both a genre and generational masterpiece, bringing to back to the screen the art of intertwining the horror story, with period accuracy. Coogler has crafted a classic Vampire film that encompasses the lore with folk tales that are cross cultural and used the painful history of the south, as well as music, as characters to carry the story along. The tale of twin brothers, excellently portrayed by Michael B. Jordan, returning to their hometown in the Mississippi Delta to forge a life of success with the help of their cousin Sammy’s talent.    Jordan’s performance of twins, Smoke and Stack,    is something to be revered as the subtle differences twins have has been brilliantly emulated on screen.   Now I also have to take a moment to praise Miles Caton* for his phenomenal performance of Sammy. The innocence of his desire but strength of ...

Happy Birthday Dad

 Tomorrow is my Fathers 67th birthday, I’m writing today because I may not get a chance tomorrow and it’s important for me to take a moment to celebrate my Dad.  About 8 years ago my Dad had a heart attack, he was clinically dead for 20 minutes and boy, was he pissed off that he had been brought back.  Dad claims he saw nothing on the other side, but my Aunt and I wonder if the reason he was so mad about it is that he did.  It was pretty scary and to see the parent, who was always seemingly more healthy, get struck by something potentially fatal, was hard.  I was in a weird mental space when it happened but managed to get my shit together (with the help of whanau) and get back to my home country.  I was home for 9months, I had to help convince him to pack up and sell our family home and he had to convince me not to stay. Growing up, our relationship was pretty solid, we had a couple bad patches but thats pretty normal.  My parents didn’t seperate till ...

Back and trying

 Yip, its me im back after my weeks hiatus, Writing is kinda like my sobriety, I have the best of intentions and really, really want to do it but there is just a part of me that cannot seem to climb the hurdle of comfortable I have lived in this past decade.  I laugh as I write this too because I am constantly annoyed at western humanity for not wanting to disrupt their comfort to make change.  It’s frustrating because I feel like, and i have had this most of my life, that I would and could do all these things if I was alone in the world.  Like real alone.  No dog, no partner, no mahi…and thats just it, when you have nothing, you will fight for any and everything.  And honestly, sometimes I really do want that. But that could be a result of feeling comfort in neglect.  Something I seem to have discovered has been a lifelong friend.  I have pondered whether or not to write about this for a bit now, another excuse for my procrastination out of fear ...
