Reflection Stories

I am a cat, and I would like to tell you about my life - from birth to the end. My roommate is human - unfortunately, not a cat. She believes I'm her pet, but she's wrong. I'm TonTon, a feline philosopher who rules his small kingdom with wit, patience, and dignity. From misunderstanding the "litter pan game" to teaching my human roommate about love, respect, and the art of coexistence, this is the story of a life shared between two very different beings. I did not know then how much she would change my world... or how suddenly everything could be taken away. Based on the true life of an extraordinary cat, My Roommate Is Not a Cat is a heartwarming Animal Fiction - a humorous yet deeply moving tale of intelligence, loyalty, and the silent love that never fades.

tfoawm. (The Fragments of a Wandering Mind) is not a novel, memoir, or self-help book. It is a catalog of thought. Written throughout 2026, this collection captures ideas exactly as they emerged: raw, contradictory, obsessive, emotional, detached, curious, afraid, alive. Each entry exists independently, allowing the reader to open the book at any point and step directly into a different state of mind. From existential reflections to fleeting observations, from intimacy to absurdity, tfoawm. documents what it feels like to think too much, feel too deeply, and try to understand life while actively living it. (The chapters do not have to be read in order.)

"My eyes dart at your beauty, and all of a sudden, your stubbornness reflects me." ☯☯☯ In the beginning, there was the sun and the moon. The sun would often radiate its beauty over the land, while the moon serves as a mirror to guide whatever is under its light. The two had never seen each other... until one lays eyes on a stubborn star that refuses to stay quiet. The stars had already been aligned in their destiny, whether they agreed upon it or fought against it. Yet what would happen if the moon refused to acknowledge what it fears? What would happen if the sun couldn't ignore the moon anymore? What will happen if one overshadows the other, in what humanity calls "love?" (cttro for the pic.)

poetic reflections from direct observations and immediate impressions of the world

She no longer believes in love-not after learning how easily it turns into weakness. Guarded and self-contained, she devotes herself entirely to work and personal growth, keeping her emotions locked away where no one can reach them. Then he arrives. A charming campus heartthrob who effortlessly captivates everyone around him everyone except her. Unimpressed and openly distant, she treats him like nothing more than a distraction. But her indifference does what no admiration ever could-it captures his attention. Determined to win her over, he uses every bit of his charm to break through her walls. Yet she refuses to fall easily, meeting his persistence with cold restraint. As tension slowly builds between them, one question lingers- Will she finally let herself feel again, or choose to remain untouched by something she no longer believes in?

This book is a collection of thoughts on what it means to live, to feel, and to grow through the quiet and loud moments that shape a person. It explores love, pain, loss, hope, and everything in between, not as a story with a beginning and end, but as fragments of real human experience. These are reflections on life as it is lived, not as it is idealized.

some thoughts never really get spoken out loud. not because they don't matter, but because they don't always find the right words or the right moment. this is a collection of quiet thoughts-about people, memories, silence, and everything in between that's hard to explain but easy to feel. nothing here is meant to be perfect. nothing here is meant to be loud. just small pieces of thoughts that stayed a little too long in my mind.

My newest anthology of poems, circa 2022-2026

~ This memoir chronicles the journey of Mia Z. Edwards, exploring the significant places and influential figures that have shaped her life. From the housing projects of Southeast Washington, D.C., where the strength of her mother served as a profound foundation, to the wisdom of neighborhood matriarchs. Mia navigates heartbreak and demonstrates remarkable resilience in her pursuit of employment on Capitol Hill, despite having only a high school education and no prior job experience. She sought spiritual healing after experiencing a traumatic betrayal, confronted the challenges of working within the government, and prepared mentally for two transformative years of travel on behalf of the U.S. government. The culmination of these experiences empowered her to become an indispensable office secretary to high-ranking government officials, contributing to the emergence of her captivating storytelling voice. Crafted through poignant vignettes, the narrative reveals one truth at a time, structured in six parts: Foundations, Networking, Betrayal, The Tyrant Boss, Business Travels, and Secretarial Diaries. Updates on weekdays.
