I am a 44 year-old wife living with bipolar disorder. My husband and I have no kids and live in Los Angeles California. I consider this blog to be an experiment. How far can I go about the truth? How far can any of us. I might disturb, shock and insult someone or possibly even everyone. This is the truth from a mentally ill, bright and quasi-brave Latina.

The Art of Poetry
Musings on poetry, language, perception, numbers, food, and anything else that slips through the cracks.
Poems, Poetry, Creative writing
This blog is, in many ways, reflections of things that have happened, thoughts and ideas, possibilities and dreams. I'm not sure which direction it will go, the temptation is to let things go and see where the words take us . . join me, it should be an interesting ride
There's no sky, just stars.

You made me cry, laugh, sad, and happy at the same time (all emotions in one night). And have to post something in the first 19 post, and I will. Thank you for sharing your life with the world. When I read the post and I comment, I did not know your story, but new something was up. But now I need more, I need to know the good guy story.
Also, you have an Amiga here with me, my story is so different, yet I can totally relate, I am Mexicana and American at the same time (yet I am one with the world). It is a constant struggle to please everyone, but I learned one thing, you will never please no one.

Gracias, amiga. Tu tambien tienes amiga. Me llamo Monica. It means alot to me. I know I need to tell my ‘good guy’ story. I just have to be in the right place before I write it. I’m sort of on a ‘cathartic’ kick right now.
