I was recently questioned about my actions and blogging of events. I want to be clear that current posts, as all other posts in on this blog, are from my perspective only and not meant to speak for or on-behalf of anyone, nor meant to be any type of invasion of privacy. They are my thoughts and emotions only, told from my perspective—the only perspective of which I am privy to. While my feelings cannot compare to the families directly involved in recent tragedies, I have been affected by this in a vast way and have done my best to navigate the path that was presented to me.

The basic right to grieve and the form of which one chooses to do that, so long as it’s appropriate, is human, personal, and something which should never be judged or harshly criticized. I am a writer that is currently conducting the use of my online presence exactly how I always have—with extreme mindfulness, sensitivity, candor, and respect. On this platform, I discuss my job, the events of my life, and lately, grieve. While I share much about my own situations, I take great care in considering that others are not as open as I am and I closely guard events and information that has been entrusted to me--things of that nature are not shared on this blog.

This blog is not required reading for anyone. If you don’t care to read it, I would suggest simply that you don’t.
