Thank you for giving me shot. I can only out pieces out there but if no one reads it, it is just mine, while i wrtie from a personal place, I really hope that people can relate. - Shain
Thanks Sandra as always. This entire Rust and Silence series was already written, I just wanted to post one a week, not because of laziness , but because it’ll read like a long list of sadness and dissatisfaction with life itself. Thank you for reading it and always showing me the support. I am already halfway through my second series. It different because I don’t use my journal entries as reminders, it me in real time, exploring how I can use various methods to an explain things ( both internal and external) I’m working through. But I’m very happy to hear that you are progressing! Don’t stop cuz whatever you are doing seems to be working. You got this. As for a gem? It’s a bit weird to hear, because I noticed a recurring theme in my journals and it was wierd how much in five years with different experiences some things I did write were similar in voice, just different in the tone as I grew up. Also, it’s the case of the tree falling in the forest. If you and everyone else didn’t read it, it would just have existed to me. That’s why I appreciate everyone who gives me the time. - Shain
It’ll be out every Monday for another month then my new series will start . I am about a little more than midway through it but I haven’t come up with a title for the series yet. - Shain
Hi Wendy thanks so much. I just try to speak my truth. And I am always grateful when people say something about it. So thank you for giving me a little bit of your time. -Shain
Thank you so much, I struggle living in my own so I don’t think i could handle living in yours, my brain would probably reset to default settings and I’d have to learn how to speak again. Kidding aside, I appreciate your words, because things we speak about, most side step, so. when I find someone in the same headspace, I have to reach out. And this was all you, your words compelled me to extend my hand- Shain
What I think would be wonderful is if you could see someone’s soul, like your heart or liver. You can measure the damage to these organs, fix them if need be, but someone’s soul, there is no way other than their actions. Some act as if their souls are in perfect shape, the most important thing to them, what makes them who they are. But they sit silent while thousands of innocent children are murdered everyday, but hey not their problem right.? Did these innocent babies ask to be born in these countries, did they get a vote about what some believe they are, while others walk around holier than thou and just turn a blind eye. What’s their soul look like? Can you fix your soul, by mere thoughts or must actions be done because someday maybe the ones you love and are just like you, could be in these situations, and while your babies cry in fear and pain, which soul do you want to come to help you?
That’s exactly why I wrote what I wrote and the way I wrote it in my collab with Jerry. Because sadly and this has become too often, people are reduced to mere numbers. I don’t like that. Because no matter what they are part of someone’s fabric. And to keep pulling at the thread is disrespectful. And I don’t hide my disdain for people who turn a blind eye out of apathy or to soothe themselves because the truth is horrifying. And those who claim to be enlightened or talk about healing are equally guilty. The talk and that’s it. I say this because I have experienced dealing with these people. They talk a good game, but if I or someone else start to poke holes in their story they show who they really are. And I know I am not some authority on anything but if they believed in what they are doing (healing,love ,peace and whatever else they can think of) why is there a dollar amount attached. Would they not want the same peace for everyone? Why to only those who can afford it ? There was a lady I once knew she wanted to charge 300 bucks for a two day meditation course/clinic via Zoom and she will read your aura and match it to your birthday and send you the right crystal to help you. When I called it out simply by saying ‘you want me to pay you 300 bucks for a rock? That’s essentially it because I can watch a meditation video on YouTube and that’s free so I’m paying for a rock.’she got so up mad and revealed her true colors, she started cussing so much a sailor would blush. So I don’t give a shit. If they are mad, good, if they act, even better and if they leave, adios. I really do not care. I hate the term soul now, it used to mean something but it been commodified so much that it’s lost the essence. -Shain
That's deep. Thank you for sharing. I relate. Very raw. Awesome share.

You know I always look forward to your work!
I love how you look at Substack as your ‘job.’ Great work ethic in you, young man! 💕
Put it all out there! Be fearless! We tend to overly criticize what we create. Human nature. Let yourself be surprised what people love! 💕
