Life is difficult, and how we transition in our lives is going to be completely different from the next, and that is where this poem comes from. It comes from a rich inner world that lays inside my mind, in an alternate reality, where I can find some sense, and ultimately reach peace, and find myself completely.



Dressed from head to toe in my favorite attire,

a color of beige and other neutrals,

cling to my body,

as I walk down these clear halls with millions of doors.

With each door I pass a sound emerges,

a sound of different places that attempt to lure me,

that wish for me to enter that world instead of the others,

and while I wish to go to each one,

in my heart of hearts,

I know it is not where I need to be.


Down the hall,

closer to the staircase that leads to the museum,

there is a door that is designed with the galaxy in mind,

and it is there where I am needed during this time,

and I embrace it warmly.

Opening the door

I find myself entering without any sign of hesitation,

as I leave the clear hallway with millions of doors behind,

only to be greeted by meteorite made lake,

with the rest of the world swirling around slowly,

dancing to the rhythm of of the atmospheric melody.


Just one step and I find myself entering the lake,

no sign of hesitation,

and no sign of fear,

I gracefully let the warm water of the lake take over,

and envelope me in its warm embrace.

As I float in the lake,

surrounded by a cave-like walls,

the planets continue to dance,

continue to finding their pace,

until they find the alignment that is right for me to see.

And it is here where I am healing,

in a meteorite lake,

surrounded by the dazingly planets,

in the deep depths of my soul and mind.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
