My goal for this blog is to post something once a week every Tuesday.

I may get writers block, so if anyone has topics I'd love to hear them.

A good friend will let you fail...

Sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing. There is a time for silence. A time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into their own destiny. And a time to prepare to pick up the pieces when it's all over. - Octavia Butler

Sometimes for me I will not learn something until I fail. When I mean fail I'm really fail, face plant into concrete fail. For me it's very hard  to see my family and friends fail. You keep begging them to stop, to just listen, because its for their own good. You wonder how the hell do they not realize what they're doing to themselves, loved ones, and you. The fact is some people will not get it till it's too late, till they get that DUI, till they go to jail, till they brake their leg, till they hit rock bottom, or even worse they won't and unfortunately will pass away.
And you wonder "How can I just sit back and watch?" Reading this quote about friendship from Octavia Butler is very truthful. You must know how to react to the different situations they're put in. Especially when they hit rock bottom. A true friend doesn't hang around only at your prime, but stays with you, at your lowest point. They take a seat with you when you throw the biggest party in high school, and the cops come to bust it.

Nature vs. Manmade

I saw a flower

So miniscule compared to a tower

But it’s beauty so superior

The tower so inferior

Though a piece of art

Created by someone so smart

But a flower wasn’t designed

Nor created by mankind

Instead a natural piece

It’s life only a temporary lease

Nothing is forever

Nor constant, always an unpredictable endeavor

But that’s the beauty

Nature’s easily attainable duty

The want, the need, to continue on

As we look forward towards the next dawn

I Stand Firm

I stand firm

Until I find someone else to take over my term

Holding up the weight of the world

Above the abyss with my arms curled

A constant evil trying to penetrate

Getting low so that a wave will not excavate

The life that has been created

A new protector has been awaited

A protector doesn’t need perfection

Just has to have a unique affection

For the good and bad souls

Otherwise there will be holes

And thousands of pounds will fall down

Everything will drown

Under the relentless waves

Will lay billions of graves

If you have any questions or thoughts...

Just leave a comment or email me.

Just Be You

Dash like the wind

Towards the place you’d like to be

No crack too small

No wall too tall

You can go with the flow

This will surely let you grow

Choose your own path

Don’t be intimidated by their wrath

Who cares if it’s normal

Normally fun isn’t abnormal

Live with tradition

Under your condition

Create something that’ll last for the ages

So beautiful that it’s displayed on stages

Always do right

You’ll be respected like a knight

The Dream

The dream

To be happy while you flow down the stream

Now this dream isn’t just sitting around

It’s up above on top of this monstrous Mound

And I understand I have to work

Even if it’s sometimes a knee jerk

Nothing should be handed over to me

Nature obviously agree

I want to be my best

And pass my test

The goal is to get high

Not just from that green ganja in the sky

But by natural pride

The feeling you get when you’ve really tried

You take that last advance

You’re drowned in excitement you might even dance

You feel thump-thump

Your heart filled with adrenaline just before a ski jump

You know deserve it

Because of the hours you’ve spent in the pit

Even if you lost your goal

You still gained some heart and soul

But eventually you’ll realize it’s worth the time
So you can keep up improving your prime.
