I do remember the days when I thought those bright yellow deer crossing signs were nothing more than advertising. We saw no deer. Not until I heard in my heart to plant 17 hundred seedlings in the forest floor. Then nature came knocking on our door. Including two six point bucks playfully wrestling under a Carolina Fall sky.

I’m always asking questions.  The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as…   How real is this thing called thumb bullying?  What’s it doing to our families and workplace?  Thumb bullying.  Plus…what do pumpkin carvers do when its not pumpkin carving season.  There so much talent put into something that happens only once a year.   I’m Arroe…  I am a daily writer.  A silent wolf.  I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate.  I call it The Daily Mess.  A chronological walk through an everyday world.  Yes, it’s my morning writing.  As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to throw it to the side and deal with it later.  When a subject arrives, I dig in.  It’s still keeping a journal!  By doing the research the picture becomes clearer.  This is the Daily Mess… Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

The super moon lit up the forest floor, yet I still didn't trust it. Having naked trees with no leaves gave off a sense of the presence of the forest but I was reminded of how it treated me in 1997 while replenishing it with 17 hundred seedlings. You can't trust a real forest floor. It will consume you. Which is what we do with our everyday wishes and job demands. We have this vision of what the surface should be only to learn it was only assumption. In our personal lives, we get lost in the vision without knowing the physical source of the forest floor.

In 1954, Estelle Rosenfeld was a striking woman in her mid-twenties, with long scarlet hair and big hazel eyes, when she met Matt Cohen. Tall, dark, and good-looking, he had just finished his third year of medical school at Tulane and was home in the Catskills for the summer. Recently divorced with a four-year-old son, Estelle was back living with her parents in New York’s Lower East Side and modeling clothes for the executives in charge of the Sears catalog. Sparks flew, and Matt and Estelle started a romance. Two years later, Matt graduated from medical school and moved to Minneapolis for his residency. In 1957, Estelle joined him, with dreams of marrying a doctor, but for her it marked the beginning of 35 years of anguish.          In her debut memoir, A FAMILY ACROSS TOWN: My Father’s Double Life (She Writes Press; January 19, 2027), Aynah V. Askanas draws us into The Secret that defined her parents’ relationship and silently tormented everyone in her family. With remarkable honesty, clarity, and compassion, the author unravels the twisted threads of deception that marked her childhood and reflects on her journey to healing and forgiveness in adulthood.                Growing up in Sun Valley, California, Aynah longed for more time with her father. As a pediatrician, Dad had a demanding job. He was typically home only three nights a week, frequently “called to the hospital for emergencies,” and routinely “required to work holidays.” As a little girl, she felt deeply for her Mom, who suffered from painful dermatitis and was often sad. She adored her big brothers, Rob and Steve, and her little sister, Dana. Aynah didn’t make friends easily, but Dad made her feel special for being smart. He gave her novels to read, from Great Expectations to Siddhartha. He sympathized with her insomnia and even brought her sleeping pills to help. Sometimes, Aynah was annoyed by Dad’s behavior, his social cluelessness and stinginess but particularly how he humiliated Rob and bullied Mom. Occasionally, she got the sense he was ashamed of them; he never invited his colleagues to their house and only once brought her to his hospital, where he neglected to introduce her as his daughter. It turns out, his colleagues already knew his family—the other family. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.
