by Lydia Nolan Lately I have lost motivation for everything I had desire for or to do, or any journey to take. I had plans to carry out various goals and strategies someday. I am no longer interested in going forward at all. Something is amiss. I have read enough psychological articles, books, biographies toContinueContinue reading “Three Reasons for Falling Short”

Our Theory of Friendship
by Lydia Nolan © October 31, 2022 “A friend sticks to, through thick or thin, If they don’t, then, they don’t understand the true meaning of a friend.” ~Lydia Nolan Families usually do not encompass friendship. Being raised with a number of family members, especially if we are raised in a dysfunctional family, they doContinueContinue reading “Our Theory of Friendship”
Peripherals
Being a writer isn’t always glamorous. In fact, it’s not glamorous at all, at least not while you are actually writing. Furthermore, it is a lonely endeavor. No one wants to sit there beside you while you think of the plots, characters and settings, then write. There are many components to writing besides the actualContinueContinue reading “Peripherals”
The Zombie Phenomena
This morning I had all intentions of writing something of artistic, creative & loving value. And then came the computer, Silicon Valley’s Satan. Its developers’ dossier: techie squeelers, billing trailers, secret gateway soldiers, identity shifters, and all sorts of negative technical TRICKS in which they are capable of keeping themselves masked and anonymous while robbingContinueContinue reading “The Zombie Phenomena”
Today is One of those Days…
I don’t care what the medical institute says, I don’t believe in BiPolar illness, why? I will tell you. It contradicts Hypersensitive Personality, How? I will tell you. Hypersensitivity is supposedly a natural phenomenon and is found in 20% of the world population (just reiterating what I read). Hypersensitivity is a personality kind, a wayContinueContinue reading “Today is One of those Days…”
…And Just like That…
by Lydia Nolan January 18, 2021 …And just like that… our lives were sealed. We would not make it out of this one. Sure, we all have to die someday. But how many of us really live before we die? I sure haven’t. You might say, I did it to myself. We all do itContinueContinue reading “…And Just like That…”
Native Roots May Sometimes be Unhealthy to your Present Life
People are always talking about “remember where you came from” on the one hand. On the other hand people are always reprimanding “don’t live in the past, stay present.” Now, these two phrases seem contradictory don’t they? They could become combative at some point in time, as well. For example, as one gets older oneContinueContinue reading “Native Roots May Sometimes be Unhealthy to your Present Life”
How to Warm Up a Cold Brain
Often I awake feeling numb as a sheet of paper awaiting its creator for form, content–just anything. But its context first, or is it content first? Now is my time to wet the sheet with words; instructions and inhalation’s of my surroundings, as evidence of life yesterday and the day before–and today of course. IContinueContinue reading “How to Warm Up a Cold Brain”
Grammaphobia
I have committed myself to a claim and this is it: NOTHING is worse for a Nazi Grammarian than having to read a text, post or email with insurmountable errors in grammar. Especially when I am receiving such communication from someone who claims to be an author. If this is the case, it is notContinueContinue reading “Grammaphobia”
I’m a Sap for Strugglers…
Yes. That’s right. I’m a Sap for strugglers. Maybe because I’m one. I feel like I’ve been struggling all my life. I’m sure many or most people feel that way too. Maybe that’s why people feel the need to come to others’ rescue. If they’ve never struggled they may not understand what others are goingContinueContinue reading “I’m a Sap for Strugglers…”
