I have not died, but work has been crazy of late. So I pop in once in a while for five minutes and read a quick poem here or there. I'll probably be back in August for real. Thanks for bearing with me.

@Carolyn_Hill I've been creating audiobooks of my work so that those who don't have time to sit down and read and listen instead while they drive or do chores. They're on my Youtube channel for free! (http://www.youtube.com/@zoeblessing) I'm also biding my time, waiting for my creative spark to... uh... spark, so I can write something new. :)

Your story was absolutely incredible, I couldn't put it down! I'm so sorry if you prefer no self-promo on your page, but if you don't mind, I'd be so grateful if readers could check out my new romantasy story. I've poured my heart into it!

Hey Carolyn :) how's everything going?

Carolyn_Hill

@rituPoet By the way, I meant to ask: What movies do you enjoy?

@Carolyn_Hill I like thrillers, but i like other genres too. I recently watched Andhadhun, it's a great movie you can try. 
            
            Tell me some of your favorite movies ^⁠_⁠^

@rituPoet Oh just minor surgery to remove my gallbladder as well as some minor surgery on my eye. The whole gallbladder thing usually behaves itself while I'm on a very low fat diet (like 10g to 20g per day) but every once in a while it flares up, and that's no fun. But that's why I'm getting it sorted.
            
            When I think of all the other things that can happen in your mid-forties, I can be grateful. :)

@Carolyn_Hill that's great. BTW, what happened to your poem? Was going to read it, it's disappeared.

@Carolyn_Hill I'm good just busy with work, I have like zero time to write. I create the time then something else comes up. Hope all is good otherwise with you?

@Carolyn_Hill No worries, we aren't going anywhere. Do one thing at one time and make sure to get rest as well.

@Carolyn_Hill you are doing the right thing.

@preciouspearl20 Definitely not average! Your voice matters, and I enjoy your poetry once I get out of this chaotic phase, I will catch up with everything, including @seven_hues poetry too! I feel like I'm so far behind on everything. 
            
            But right now one thing at a time. Deal with work first...that pays the bills. Then reading and writing.

hi, carolyn! it's been a while since we talked. how are you?

preciouspearl20

@Carolyn_Hill Ah, Carolyn! PIXELATED will be always alive in the figments of your imagination as long as you're here, we are here.

@seven_hues I'm not sure if the right answer is empathy or sympathy, but at this point I could do both and it would be sincere and genuine. I understand completely and it totally blows. I'm not exactly sure what you're struggling with at the moment, but just know that it's natural to feel sad or angry or confused or any number of emotions. I have a problem with "you'll be okay". It sounds a lot like, "C'mon, repress your emotions, and you'll be good." Nah, man. Feel them. Don't drown in them, but feel and acknowledge them. And I speak from experience. Hell, that was what PIXELATED was going to be all about.

@Carolyn_Hill i feel you. i think nowadays we're all so tired of fighting to exist. it's like we're drowning in air. alive, but barely. and honestly, i don't need another "you'll be okay." i just need life to stop chewing me up.
