Anger is a shield, not a weapon
We are conditioned to believe that emotions are wrong, both the "good" and the "bad." Of all the emotions, it seems that we fear anger the most. We believe that anger comes from a place of arrogance, that it leads to dangerous behavior and negative actions. In reality, it is the suppression of anger that… Continue reading Anger is a shield, not a weapon
When I say, “I’m a writer…”
When I say, “I’m a writer,” it does not necessarily mean I am a good one, and certainly not better than most. It does not mean I am sitting next to the highest and most qualified writers of all time. It does not make me special in any way. It’s simply what I do. When… Continue reading When I say, “I’m a writer…”
That was the broken version of me
I’m sorry to you. And when I say “you,” I don’t mean one specific person. I mean anyone who has only known the broken version of me. Life is a series of up and downs. We all go through phases — periods in which things are mainly peaceful and pleasant, along with periods in which… Continue reading That was the broken version of me

My childhood dance lessons & thoughts on the culture
I took dance class for the entirety of my childhood. I attended my first dance school from about ages 3-5. I actually STILL can remember what the studio looked like, I still have memories of changing dance shoes between classes, and can still see myself doing the butterfly stretch. It was a 3-in-one dance class… Continue reading My childhood dance lessons & thoughts on the culture

Primeval Pixie ~ NEW BLOG NAME!
I first opened up this blog in 2016 as “Lotus Laura” (lotuslaura94!) Since then, it’s been a great run. I stuck with the name because I know that changing blog names can be confusing for everyone else! Lots of things have changed since 2016. When I first began this blog, it was more about keeping… Continue reading Primeval Pixie ~ NEW BLOG NAME!
I’m changing
Going through my old journals and posting the recaps, I had to stop at 2020 to take a breather and process it all, but I will continue my journal journey shortly. I questioned if two years ago would be too recent to look back on, and then I realized how much I have changed since… Continue reading I’m changing
