Mixtape Number 16: A Symphony of My Struggles

Hey internet void,

My Tumblr name, Mixtape Number 16, might seem a little strange at first glance. But for me, it's a window into my soul, a reflection of the tangled mess that is sometimes my mind.

Mixtapes used to be a way to share your favorite songs, to curate a sonic experience for someone special. But in this case, the mixtape is me, and the songs are the jumbled thoughts, emotions, and struggles that have played on repeat since I was 16.

Sixteen. That's the age when the world stopped being a playground and became a battlefield. It's when the weight of reality slammed into me, and the soundtrack of my life started to include the static of anxiety and the melancholy hum of depression.

This mixtape isn't all sad songs, though. There are bursts of laughter, flashes of joy, and the hopeful melody of self-discovery. But it's honest. It's raw. It's a reflection of the ups and downs that come with navigating the complexities of mental health.

So why share it with the internet void? Because maybe, just maybe, someone else out there is listening and recognizes the melody. Maybe someone else has a mixtape playing in their head filled with similar songs.

Here's to finding solace in shared experiences, to letting loose the tangled chords of our emotions, and to the power of music, or in this case, mixtapes, to connect us on a deeper level.

The Era of Self-Interest: Is True Love Endangered?. #shorts.

Connection is often compared to the feeling of unconditional love. Imagine connection as a vast, serene ocean. Each person is a boat floating on the surface of the water. When two individuals connect, it's as if their boats anchor together. The waves of life might be rough, but the anchored boats remain steady, providing support and understanding for one another. Just as a boat anchored to another is less likely to be tossed around by the waves, individuals who are connected and supported by each other are better equipped to navigate life's challenges and find solace in the midst of turmoil. #ConnectionMatters #FindingConnection #CreatingBonds #BreakingBarriers #EmbracingVulnerability #HumanConnection #BuildingRelationships #MeaningfulConnections #UnconditionalLove #BreakingDownWalls #FosteringInclusivity #ExpandingPerspectives #NavigatingRelationships #GenuineInteractions

A paragrph from the full text (below) written originally as: “Endowed With Longing for Connection.”

Perfection in yoga may have been an ancient goal, and to achieve that goal many yogis spent time alone and in isolation; but I don’t know anyone with perfection on their bucket list. I’ve not heard anyone say, “Yea, I want to become the perfect yogi, to levitate, reach santosha, and become one with God.

Some paintings are more difficult to let go than others, George was and still is a person who has deeply inspired me. If the right person comes along, I may be able to let go of this work. My art is like having a kid, you love them, but you know one day they have to go leave to help make someone else or other people find something within themselves and contribute to the world. Me + George Harrison, Oil on Canvas, 20"x20", 2014. Happy Birthday to George Harrison! 💕⭐️ #georgeharrison #thebeatles #allthingsmustpass #happybirthday #portraitpainting #comparisonpainting #popart #popculture #johannafalzone #findingconnections #darkhorse @georgeharrisonofficial @dhaniharrison

Fleischman, P., & Pedersen, J. (Illus.) (1997). Seedfolks. New York, NY: HarperTrophy.  Set in a Cleveland community, this story captures the lives of various individuals. Coming from all different walks of life, these people, of varying ages, races, languages, and abilities begin to heal their personal wounds by planting in, and together maintaining, a community garden. Chapter Book, JMM.

Thoughts: I was intrigued with this short chapter book from the very beginning. The author brilliantly weaves different lives together and describes how each person finds their own way to identify with others who plant in the garden. It is remarkable to think that if it were not for this space, these individuals would have never interacted with each other. As each individual begins to heal their wounds through gardening, they also come to feel a sense of community and belonging within an otherwise very divided city.

Classroom Applications: As there are many different characters who contribute their own narrative, students of a 5th grade classroom or older can do an in-depth character analysis. Students can choose which character they would like to study further and work together to do a close read on whichever character they choose.Charts can also be made identifying each character’s reasons or motivations for planting in the garden.  Additionally, there are various instances where characters are noticed in another person’s account and this provides great opportunities for students to make inferences. For example, in Virgil’s chapter she speaks of a “wrinkled old man in a straw hat” (p. 42). By posing questions and asking students to think deeper about descriptions and detail, the teacher can assess whether or not students are picking up on the details of previous characters and realizing the connections between characters.Yet another fun activity that students can do is draw a picture of the garden the way they imagine it from reading this story. If possible, it would also be a great idea to have a class garden outside. Students can take on the responsibility of working together to maintain this garden and find their own purpose in planting their own seeds.
