The Break Up
Why does love hurt us so badly?
I gently laid down at his feet... ever trusting... as he stabbed me in the heart... again. How could someone that I loved hurt me this way?
I began to cry in pain and he acted bewildered... as if he did not understand the anguish that I was experiencing.
He stepped back and watched me bleed... not taking any responsibility for the damage that he had inflicted. Denying that he was the source.
He let me die and then walked away... left me all alone... not realizing that I had finally gain my freedom and he his Hell.
Peace surely was mine... as turmoil would be his. Love long gone.

How the Harvest Mouse Came to Suisun Bay
A long, long time ago there was a family of harvest mice. Mice are common, but these were unique – born to those who had lived in the salty, marshy bay for many generations, these mice ate and drank from the sea as well as the land and rivers. For generations, there were only the southern families, scattered along the marshes of Corte Madera and in the San Francisco Bay (U.S. Fish & Wildlife, 2013). One family, however, would undergo strife and conflict before reaching a whole new world. What became of them after is another tale entirely – but this is how their story begins.
