“I went into the new year loving myself in different ways, in a different possibility. It was then that I understood things I hadn’t. It was then that I understood people I hadn’t. We work in ways where sometimes we don’t align because our intersections lead us elsewhere. We find ourselves in rapids which lead to lightning, in beds that leave us homesick. We lust after the impetuous, in hopelessness, and sometimes in the reactive. We like things and people who are bad for us and that’s fine. It’s fine because it’s life. It happens. They exist. We exist. We all exist together in this world where nothing seems to make sense. Where everything is nothing but imaginary because it’s what we imagine it to be. Reality exists and it’s there, but life is what you make it. Your actions ask for it. How you exist is how you exist.We take every new year and give it a theme because we’re scared of how it could be. You change in the moment, not by years. You be to become and becoming is something which frightens people. Lead by example instead of letting the example lead you. Take this new year and find yourself in people who question it because questioning is how you gain from it.”

“And I went into the new year loving myself a little less, but a little more where it actually mattered.”
Dominic Riccitello“Hallucinations aren’t always out of the ordinary. How do we know we’re not hallucinating if everything seems plausible?”
Dominic Riccitello“I love you, but I’m more in love with myself and that’s the problem.”
Dominic Riccitello“He wasn’t a good person, but I painted him to be and since I painted it, I believed it.”
Dominic Riccitello“He wasn’t my boyfriend, but he was something. Someone who made a positive impact on my life regardless of the negative. He changed my perspective for the better and made me who I am in this very second. I appreciate, cherish, and thank him for it; and I will for this life and into any life that may come.”
Dominic Riccitello“I smell him in intervals, in varieties, in ways I don’t quite understand.”
Dominic Riccitello“I touched him. From brain to body, in ways I couldn’t quite understand. But he did and for him, that was all that mattered.”
Dominic Riccitello“People love the facade of a perfection relationship because perfection seems alluring. What they don’t realize is perfection is terrifying.”
