The Things I Don’t Talk About

The things I don’t talk about greatly outnumber the things I do.

So far in the rear view mirror, they don’t even appear closer than they are.

“I’m not sleeping. I saw everything. That guy did the thing before to the other guy.”

I keep picturing Kindergarten Cop only Arnold is screaming, “It’s not the virus!”

You go places you never thought you would. You become things you never dreamed.

Others may cut your down, but that doesn’t mean you can’t put yourself back together and grow. I did.

What hurt the most was that I had accepted them.

The words rocked me to my core, right there in the middle of the home section of Target.

It’s a path I never expected to travel, but am glad I had the courage to walk it.

Being Dad is the greatest, scariest, happiest, lifetime of dread I could have ever signed up for.
