Sometimes I think the hardest negative voice to get past is our own. It's a psychological thing for some people - myself included - when they hear compliments or general positive vibes thrown in their direction. Sometimes, your brain will contradict what you hear. Someone tells you you're talented, your brain tells you you're mediocre… Continue reading 87. How to… chase the demons away.

86. How to… take care of yourself.
I feel like I've dropped the ball lately. Like my head would fall off and roll away if it wasn't attached to my shoulders. I can sit here and try to make excuses about it all day long... but that's time consuming, and excuses don't really get us anywhere, do they? But there's a second… Continue reading 86. How to… take care of yourself.
85. How to… show your pride.
It's Pride month, guys! *tosses rainbow glitter* Anyway... The last couple months have been eventful, to say the least. In both worlds. I doubt I'll be able to don my rainbow gear and march in real life this year. It looks like a lot of our local events have been cancelled until after the fourth… Continue reading 85. How to… show your pride.
83. How to… get through when all you wanna do is say…
Sorry not sorry, guys. This backdrop ~spoke to me, and I couldn't help myself. I've been thinking a lot lately, and feeling myself getting more and more frustrated with literally everything from my personal situation to Blender's apparent will to destroy me to the state of the world today. It's times like this when, if… Continue reading 83. How to… get through when all you wanna do is say…
82. How to… be human.
I initially had another inspiration behind this photo, but then things changed. I've seen so much ugliness in the world in the last couple of days, both personally and on a grand scale, that I find myself in a state of mind that I can hardly put into words. Sometimes, we are silenced when we… Continue reading 82. How to… be human.
81. How to… stop and smell the flowers.
So... I have come to the realization in the last couple days that I am in desperate need of my personal space. I've been taking some of my photos a little ahead of time in hopes that our house guests wouldn't be here too long. They're using my room where my swanky new desktop is,… Continue reading 81. How to… stop and smell the flowers.
80. How to… appreciate the past and still look toward the future.
I didn't realize how much I'd been blogging this year until I looked up at that number. I'm proud of myself, guys! And now that I've patted myself on the back... It's been a rough week. I feel like I say that every week, but at the same time, I know that there will come… Continue reading 80. How to… appreciate the past and still look toward the future.
79. How to… let them in.
This one's hard for me, to be honest. When I joined Second Life, I thought it was great. As a disabled person without the ability to drive, I had high hopes for Second Life as something far beyond a game. It was a social platform, too. A way to meet new people and interact in… Continue reading 79. How to… let them in.
78. How to… turn on the light.
Haha. Get it? Because I played with Black Dragon today and have no idea what I'm doing... Okay, so maybe you don't get it, but this metaphor goes well beyond me bashing my face against the keyboard until I managed to get my photo to look half-decent in a viewer that might as well have… Continue reading 78. How to… turn on the light.
77. How to… take control.
Sometimes, life just likes to kick you a few times. There are people who will say that we are in control of our own destinies. These are often the same people who will tell those suffering from depression that they simply need to smile more. Partly, they are right: we are in control of our… Continue reading 77.
