Freedom

Think of the freedom that we have throughout our land. The privilege to stand by each other hand in hand. It's hard to imagine what life could be if we didn't have our rights and liberty. Thank God for your blessings each and every one. Thank Him for the roads you've traveled and the ones you've yet gone. And remember the soldiers protecting our rights over seas. For there isn't a day that goes by that they don't think of you and me.

Just Okay

“The way the world was shaped was different in her eyes. She tried her best not to slip off the edge of the earth, while everyone else just rolled around it’s curves. It’s difficult to talk about her. She didn’t say much because to her, there was never much to say. This is one of the things that made her so unique. She was there: A simple existence in a complicated void. She was never okay, but that was never the issue at hand for her. Everyone seemingly deals with big mass destructions in their vivacities. She wasn’t dealing with anything. She was just herself. For some, that’s good enough, but for her, it never was. She listened intently and never spoke out of turn.   We kept pouring it on her and she kept taking it. Not once did she complain. The best advice always came from her. She would spew all styles of intelligence and people continually absorbed it. There wasn’t a problem too challenging for her to dissect. She liked this about herself, but it still was not enoug...

Fire and Ice

From the beginning, we’ve been frozen in a deadened state. But, the room around us slowly catches fire and the things that were so masochistic in our cold hearts go up in flames. Within seconds, everything we knew is one big pile of ash. Nothing is distinguishable. Nothing remains except the burns from the once existent flames. The thing about fire is that it disappears after there’s no oxygen left for it to swallow up. It leaves us gasping for air as it transforms our life giving surroundings into smoke filled poison. The air, or what remains of it, is black. What’s behind us is synonymous to what is in front of us. Nothing makes sense and we can’t deviate from the thick cloud suffocating our lungs. But we don’t let it bother us because in the end, burning is far better than being numb. The emotionless cold that we once lived in was unbearable. The thing about the cold is that there are no scars to remind us of the things we’ve endured. That’s why, more often than...

Religion

I had my religion final today and wrote this for one of my essays! We had to write something creative about your faith. It's a little shaky, but I only had 20 minutes to write it. Hope you enjoy! I am sent from God in the heavens above. My father has sent me to be the holy one. I am strong with faith and forgiving to all. Anyone can be catholic, just read the conversion of Paul. My teachings can be found in all four gospels. Wait until you read the signs and see the stunts that i pull. I ate with tax collectors and even walked on water. I forgave the girl who committed adultery: she too is God's daughter. I'm here to spread the good news and give religion  start. Faith isn't found in a science book, but in your heart. You should go to church on the holy sabbath day, although I am always listening to you pray. Live by the commandments, it isn't hard to do. Just do unto others as you want them to do unto you. I know it's hard to believe without really seeing, ...
