What’s your favorite time of day?
Mid afternoon. Reminds me of when the torture of school was finally over. It will forever mean freedom to me

What’s the story behind your nickname?
When me and my siblings were kids, it was usually our maternal grandmother who would babysit us since she lived a short walk away.
She had a small rose garden (probably wouldn’t count as a garden, really), and I loved it. I thought the white roses were beautiful, although yellow became my preference over time. But back then, something about them seemed angelic to me. It felt special and safe. Safe was especially important.
It is somewhere I can associate happy memories with from my childhood. I don’t have many. So I’ve never forgotten it.
But why bloody? Because there’s a lot of darkness that lurks behind those memories. A lot.

What strategies do you use to maintain your health and well-being?
Taking a minute or two to take breaths, just concentrating on that and blocking out everything else.
That said, some things trigger me to freeze up out of fear, and I can’t think of what to do in the moment.

I won’t cry for yesterday. 
Glass coasters. -
Family outsiders are usually black sheep. I call myself the black swan. At least allow me control over that. -
How do you express your gratitude?
“Thank you, I appreciate this, you are too kind.”
Might seem a bit OTT, but in my earlier life, I never much kindness to be grateful for.
