  I am now starting a new project with this blog, which kind of needed it since it has been sitting fallow for years.   I will be using it as   Latin practice of a sort. I will be choosing various Latin pieces and translating them, plus adding commentary when applicable. To start I am going to be working on Caesar’s de bello Gallia book one part   [1] Gallia est omnis divisa in partes tres, quarum unam incolunt Belgae, aliam Aquitani, tertiam qui ipsorum lingua Celtae, nostra Galli appellantur. Hi omnes lingua, institutis, legibus inter se differunt. Gallos ab Aquitanis Garumna flumen, a Belgis Matrona et Sequana dividit. Horum omnium fortissimi sunt Belgae, propterea quod a cultu atque humanitate provinciae longissime absunt, minimeque ad eos mercatores saepe commeant atque ea quae ad effeminandos animos pertinent important, proximique sunt Germanis, qui trans Rhenum incolunt, quibuscum continenter bellum gerunt.

Personal demons

Here’s the funny thing about personal demons. No matter how old they are, and no matter how much you think you’ve put them behind you, they always seem to rise again and again. I have been triggering a lot recently everything from depression, anxiety, to nightmares.   The bad part is, I do not know why.   I will not go into details about what happened, but it’s time I truly faced the past.   It’s these events drove me into drugs, and being on the receiving end of several emotionally, mentally, and verbally abusive relationships.     I know there’s a stigma to admit this, but frankly I do not give a damn anymore. I am finally seeking therapy for what happened 20 years ago. I have been silently carrying these burdens to long.

I have not forgotten

New blog post coming. Yay for writing again!
