    Game of Thrones Season 8 Finale: My Totally Chaotic Thoughts

    Welcome back to my messy brain dump about the Game of Thrones finale — because wow, what a ride. I can’t believe it’s actually over. Let’s relive the chaos together:

    1 Grey Worm… really? You’re doing way too much right now.

    2 Jon Snow — looking fine as always, but also, babe, what are you doing?

    3 Tyrion out here telling it like it is. Yes, king, speak your truth!

    4 Daenerys… girl, what happened to you? Chill. Please.

    5 I mean, yeah, she has to go — but does it have to be Jon?

    6 WAIT. He did it?! Oh no. Oh yes? Oh no again.

    7 That’s it? That’s how she goes out? I feel robbed.

    8 Drogon crying over her body — okay, that broke me. 😭

    9. What?

    10. Sansa! Yes, tell that man to sit down. HAHA.

    11. Aww, Sam.

    12. Okay, Bran.

    13. What?

    14. Uhhhh.

    15. Oh, so now you’re finally gonna pet him?

    16. What?

    17. Okay, Arya.

    18. What?

    19. Sansa, yes! Queen!!

    Ayye!
    Her tiara is perfect!

    20. What?

    21. What?

    22. Seriously!?



    After that, I had to restart the episode just to make sure I hadn’t blacked out and missed something. Like, Tyrion gets off easy, but Jon goes back to the Night’s Watch? Make it make sense.

    At least Sansa ended up where she belongs — in charge and looking stunning with that tiara. Queen behavior only. 👑

    The finale wasn’t perfect, but it wasn’t a total disaster either. I’m just glad we survived it together. Our watch has ended… now bring on the spinoffs!

    I want it, I got it

  • After All Tomorrow Is Another Day – Losing a Grandparent

    After All Tomorrow Is Another Day – Losing a Grandparent

    “We’re at the age where we’re starting to lose people.”

    That’s what my friend said as we sat across from each other at a local coffee shop — two friends who hadn’t seen each other in months but picked up like no time had passed.

    During the conversation, we spoke about loved ones who had left us this year. I explained how I had seen a loved one’s body minutes after their soul had left. I almost couldn’t believe it was the same person. There was nothing behind their eyes. I was taken back by the blank stare, and the body reminded me of wax. I will never forget this image, and sometimes I wish I could. However, this image also seems to give me peace. I believe his soul had left his body and moved on to a better place.

    I’m not sure what I believe in, but I know that there is a God. Sometimes I wonder if those who have so little confidence in God are the ones who have never seen a body without a soul.
