You are not Alone

Writing can be lonely no matter how often we joke that our characters keep us company. Scratch that, all art can be lonely. Hell, being a human being is lonely anymore and getting lonelier by the day thanks to the climate of the world we suddenly find ourselves thrust into.  

I see people on every social media platform reaching out for support, just wanting to breach that abyss; needing nothing more than to have someone to sit with them in the darkness while they stumble along to find their way. I'm told when I reach back that they are used to only hearing crickets. Now, I'm not one to pity anyone, but I am definitely one to never let you sit or walk alone as you meander the dark. 

Right now I may only be a stranger. 

I may be nothing more than a number on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, MeWe, etc.  

But I'm here, and as long as I have air in my lungs, and my heart beats you will never have to be alone. Reach out. Email me, message me, hell send a homing pigeon if you need to, but please don't ever think you have nobody, or that nobody cares. I know what that feels like, and I made it my mission long ago to alleviate that feeling in others as much as I am able. 

 You are not alone. 

I'm right here. 

Love and Light.
