"Silent Hill is terrifying" Silent Hill is only scary if you haven't done the inner work allowing yourself to sit comfortably with silence or if you are somehow afraid of being hunted by a man with a giant sword who also happens to have a pyramid for a head. Otherwise, it's not scary. It's regular.

On the first day of the 47th year of my life I chose to start by doing my favorite thing. Going to the gym with my little darlin’ Laila. It’s never too late to be better and feel better. I love life, my family and friends. Find the little things in this dark world.
