My thoughts,Meandering as they seem,Wander with a purpose.They flick through shadows dark,Fly through forests deep-Gentle in their motions,Settling as if they never were.They dance through day and night,Hunting for a place to rest,A spot to sink in,Wandering far from where they started.Eventually they find their place,Intrusive and novel as it may be,It feels more like … Continue reading More Home Than Reality

Neverending Sea of Color
Stars twinkle like gems in a neverending sea of colors. Each star is different in shape and size, some further from this earthly plane; while others feel as if you could reach out and graze their light. But all exist in the neverending sea of color. From this earthly vantage we reach out and trace … Continue reading Neverending Sea of Color
Smiling Faces
We should be nurturers. We're supposed to be a community. We're supposed to listen, to talk with others. To ask, "How was your day?"

The World is no More Than the Reality We Choose for it to Be
"In a world of Talkers be a Thinker." The reason I read is because I can insert myself into a world completely different from my own. Abstract and interesting. Where things make sense and everything ultimately has a solution. In the real world things take time. In books they can be solved in a matter … Continue reading The World is no More Than the Reality We Choose for it to Be
Me vs. the World
Growing up, I've always been told to hold compassion for others, and be there for them in their time of need. But, on the other hand, I'm also consistently told to not let others walk all over me.

The Epic Battle: Nature vs Nurture
So a little while ago in AP Lang we talked about an article we had to read on what makes a serial killer. It talked about how genetics effect these people's personalities and mentalities, which, in turn, impacts their outward actions. And it sort of got me thinking about a topic that absolutely fascinates me: … Continue reading The Epic Battle: Nature vs Nurture
