A learning experience

It’s what we all should do when presented with a situation where there is a need to be met and you can meet that need.
Then, right at that point, the past, unspoken angers, forgotten jealousies, all should be forgotten.

IF you are present in the moment where a need is presented, and you, yourself, have a [...]

Give me a head with hair

The semester is finally coming to the end, only a few more weeks left to go. A couple of projects, papers and then finals. Makes sense then, that this is when the Dragon and I decide to do crazy wacky stuff. My Tattoo’’s are not really that out of the ordinary for me, but the [...]

Time is a commodity in my life

I never seem to have enough, I know this blog has been languishing from lack of attention and I am sorry. I realized though, part of my problem is never being sure the level of seriousness I want to maintain here, do I only want to write about those things that bother me and keep [...]

Imagine Peace

Imagine Peace

I remember being in the car with my mom driving out to my grandparents house in Rogersville. I had been begging her to let me turn the radio to rock 99 the local rock/pop station. She was a hard sell on it, she only ever listened to KTTS, the local country station that [...]

Runs with Scissors

You know sometimes I hate having to hold it all in.

Being the Me I am underneath all the time. That would be grand.

But I can’t, cause she is not always a very nice person.

I had been trying to figure out what to post, how to get over my writers block. I finally decided to post 37 things: little known, interesting, or facts that I personally like about [...]

Working Class Hero

As soon as you’re born they make you feel small
By giving you no time instead of it all
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all
A working class hero is something to be

They hurt you at home and they hit you at school
They hate you if you’re clever and they despise a fool
Till [...]

Take a moment of your time…

I don’t want to come across completely woo woo But after all the crappy news of late,

Including some really interesting personal news that I am still not completely sure on,   I have been meditating more.

The following is one of my favorite meditations
 I found this quite a while ago on a rainbow family message [...]

Thank you for calling …

is it admitting to failure, when I say I cant do it any longer?

The 14 hour days are too much…

I do not have any time for anything I am struggling to keep up with my homework and am not getting near enough sleep

But the discipline is still there, I have yet to not get an [...]

all tied in knots …

I am pulling all nighters lately staying up way past my usual bedtime.

 I realized it is because… 

The end of summer draws near and I am starting to get nervous.

I am going to be starting back to school in a little over 2 weeks.

I am also going to be working full time.

I know many people have [...]
