Stuck on a bus
I want to say I was in kindergarten when I had a very scary experience. I had gotten on the bus on my way home from school. I was still pretty small and my little feet didn’t quite touch the floor. As I sat on the bus, from a big day at school, I suddenly…

Grief
The other day my husband was driving as I played the music in the passenger seat. We were both feeling joyful and in a good mood. As we were listening to one of our songs, one little sentence was sung, that left me crying and sad. It was a part of the lyric that left…
