All The Lies Must Be Bitter On Your Tongue

July 31, 2026 · Lucky

Sometimes losing your place in something you helped build leaves you trying to separate what belonged to it from what still belongs to you.

SCATTERBRAIN’s BITTER got me thinking about Brian Burkheiser, his account of how his time with I Prevail ended, what he’s creating now and what it means to finally tell your own side of a story. The open gates, darkness and light became my way of bringing all of that into the photo.

You can still be angry. You can even be a little BITTER. Just don’t stop building whatever comes next.

The Spiritor Edit – First Stop

(Editor’s Note: This is a cross-post from SLInsiderGuide.Com, find me there as well now!)

Hi, I’m Lucky. I’ve been blogging and taking photos in Second Life for a long time, mostly over at LuckySpiritor.Com. I tend to bounce around between fashion, photography, music, and whatever else catches my attention, so when I got the chance to start sharing some things here too, I figured I’d pretty much do the same thing I always do: show you something cool I found and tell you why I liked it.

Seems easy enough, right?

I Need You To See Me For What I Have Become

There is something interesting about the idea of Eden because people almost always imagine it from the positive side of the story. We picture paradise before anything happened to it. Everything prior to the fall. Before knowledge complicated its innocence. Before something beautiful became something you could lose. We imagine the gates still open and everything exactly where it belongs. What we don’t spend nearly as much time thinking about is what Eden could look like to someone standing outside of it.

When Your Bridge Is Burned And You Can’t Find A Quiet Mile

July 15, 2026 · Lucky

Lately, I’ve found myself coming back to ordinary moments for reasons I can’t quite explain. I don’t think I’ve accidentally missed some of the most important moments in my life because I wasn’t there. I think I’ve missed them because my attention was somewhere else.

When Your Fans Become Your Haters, You Done?

That’s one of the reasons I’ve struggled with the idea that an apology, by itself, somehow fixes what existed before. I don’t believe that’s how trust works. If you drop a plate on the floor and then apologize to it, the apology may be sincere, but it doesn’t put the plate back together. The apology isn’t the end of the conversation. It’s the beginning of asking why the plate ended up on the floor in the first place, because that’s where the problem actually starts getting solved.
