Annual occurrence of a notable event

A New Year and a blogging anniversary. Is it 18 years already? My blog is almost an adult now. So many times I feel as if my writing days are over and then something inspires me to continue. It was indeed a notable event when I started blogging eighteen years ago. We had arrived in Philadelphia and I was in the process of finding a job in the area. We had left Buffalo and I knew no one and nothing

Tamar’s Quotes

“What if I forgave myself? I thought. What if I forgave myself even though I'd done something I shouldn't have? What if I was a liar and a cheat and there was no excuse for what I'd done other than because it was what I wanted and needed to do? What if I was sorry, but if I could go back in time I wouldn't do anything differently than I had done? What if I'd actually wanted to fuck every one of those men? What if heroin taught me something? What if yes was the right answer instead of no? What if what made me do all those things everyone thought I shouldn't have done was what also had got me here? What if I was never redeemed? What if I already was?”
