You Don’t Owe the World an Explanation

 


You Don’t Owe the World an Explanation

Some people grow up learning they must earn their place. Be useful. Be grateful. Be easy. If you need help, apologize. If you struggle, soften it. If you’re loved, prove you deserve it. Not a Burden, Not a Bonus was written for everyone who knows that feeling—and is tired of carrying it.


This book is about one simple truth: you are not a problem to be fixed, and you are not a prize to be displayed. You are a person. Too often, disabled people are treated like extra work or extra inspiration. Both ideas take away dignity. This book clears that away and asks a better question: what would love look like if no one had to owe anyone anything just to exist?


Not a Burden, Not a Bonus talks about real relationships—dating, love, boundaries, and everyday moments where people are made to feel small without anyone meaning to. It uses clear language, honest examples, and practical insight to name things many people feel but struggle to explain. There’s no guilt, no lectures, and no pretending pain is a gift.


If you’ve ever felt measured, compared, or quietly indebted just for being alive, this book is for you. You don’t need to perform strength. You don’t need to be inspiring. You don’t need to shrink. You’re allowed to take up space—without apology. Coming soon.

Your are not a burden, neither is your disability,

How the Glow of Christmas Lights Can Actually Change Your Life (and Your Energy!)

 How the Glow of Christmas Lights Can Actually Change Your Life (and Your Energy!) Have you ever looked at a strand of Christmas lights and felt… calmer? Happier? Almost like they’re alive? You’re not imagining it. Light has power — real, emotional, and even spiritual power. And in The Magick of Christmas Lights, author Matthew Petchinsky shows us how those twinkling bulbs can do more than decorate — they can heal, protect, and manifest. This isn’t your average holiday guide. It’s a journey through what our ancestors already knew: light is sacred. Long before electricity, people used candles and fire to call in warmth, love, and safety through the coldest months. Now, every strand of lights is like a spell made visible — a ritual we already practice without realizing it. Matthew reveals how different colors carry different kinds of energy. Red brings courage. Green calls prosperity. Gold invites joy. Blue brings peace. Even multicolored lights balance everything — like harmony in b...
