    The crisp breeze rustled my hair as I walked out of my house on the fall September day with my dad drilling instructions into my head. It was my first Little League baseball game ever, and my dad wanted to make sure it wasn’t my last. Being seven years old and never touching a baseball was something that had scared me; a lot. I had no idea what to think about this foreign, petrifying, game could possibly be about. The car ride from my house was only a few minutes away from the fields where I would begin my baseball career.…

    I was 13 years old, just starting off high school, when I realized what this dark cloud that’s been floating over me for the past couple of months really is. It wouldn’t be until more than a year later until I seek out professional help. It started off innocently enough as just a feeling of constant emptiness at the pit of my stomach. It slowly turned into randoms bouts of extreme rage, where I’d take out my anger physically, not just on the walls and mirrors of my childhood home and not just on my family, but on myself. I couldn’t understand why I felt this way, why I wasn’t “normal”.…

    I’m a military child, and as such, it’s always an awkward thing when someone asks me: “Where are you from?” I don’t really know, I can’t pinpoint an exact place where I can say: “I’m from so-and-so.” I can tell you where my family spent a lot time though, where the memories are the deepest, and the places I felt a strong connection to. Alaska is such a place. There’s nowhere in the world like Alaska, and I can say that with extreme clarity because my father has been everywhere.…
