DE_Da_Bartender ⋅ 40 ⋅
The Moses of DE. I come from a site called Digital Expression, a site that was shut down. So I brought our people here, to stay connected and keep on our individual journeys of writing, expressing and healing.
Even if I'm in last place, I'm still doing better than those that never try.

Highest of the Highs, lowest of the lows in Life
High’s? Low’s? Is there a grammatically need for an apostrophe there? Do the highs own the high? Regardless, I’m all over the map lately, having weeks of feeling the greatest I’ve ever felt and w...
Turning Point in Life
No not the ‘politically’ geared whatever-it-is (Sorry, I’m Canadian) but rather a turning point in my general mood lately. Too often I use this journal as a place to output my negative emotions s...
A New Record in Life
Look at me writing 3 times less than a year, go team! I’m always amazed at how much writing does for my mental health. It’s been a wild and expensive year since my last stint back in July 2022 a...
Every Day is Exactly the Same in Life

Relationships and Mentoring in Life

I’ve been struggling with my identity for a long time. That should really come as no surprise to anyone whose read literally any of my entries. But I’m 37 going on 38. And… I gotta say, I don...
Another day another bubble in Life
I’m stuck in this perpetual slow boil of anxiety lately. And I’m not sure if that’s just because of everything that’s going on in my life or if it’s just a mental health issue. Both I suppose b...

As I continue trudging forward through time I find myself struggling to find relevancy in time. Like… I’m just continually walking forward feeling like the world is falling apart around me in cr...
Old Habits in Life
They just never really go away. They just kinda sit there in waiting to crop up and pop up and go BANG! Or in this case not. Like a rusty gun (I don’t like how these sound like they’re getting ...
A post from Facebook. in Life
I’m not sure how I’m going to go about this but for the past week or so I’ve been quietly observing my use of Social Media and really wondering what, exactly, it’s adding to my life. Or more acc...
It’s been a while, which means there’s been a lot of growth. I find I tend to go silent when I’m in moments of development. I’m not sure if that’s a common trait but I suppose everyone interact...
Yesterdayyy in Life

How to Proceed in Life

I Don't Even Know in Life
