Last week I was browsing Facebook when I came across a photo of a dead woman with the caption “My grandmother is dead.” To my surprise, this photo had garnered over 50 likes. My immediate reaction was “what the hell are you liking?” If you like something, doesn’t it generally means that you are in support…

I had my first in-person job interview today. Strangely I should have been apprehensive but I was not. It was a really good experience. I liked my interviewers and felt like I was talking to old acquaintances. We started laughing when I assumed that one of my interviewers was reaching for my resume that was…

Despite everything, for years my secret self entertained the yearnings of finally communicating and working things out.
