Ugh. The week goes on. by Gossamer on February 4th, 2010, 6:31 pm
Well, its been a long week and it keeps getting longer. A lot has happened in real life and it keeps getting worse. I'm not sure why, but I bet if someone was interested in astrology they'd say something like 'Mercury is in bad alignment with the planet Bullshit' and that's why life is going oddly. It just keeps getting weirder. I started out the week having a day where I was seriously the biggest klutz ever. I tripped up stairs, down stairs, over my own feet, broke eggs collecting them from the chicken house cause I dropped them, lost tools, broke a headlight, and had misc things happen in a long string of exhausting events. My tire went flat, I was late for work, etc. Can you say Ugh? I can. Anyhow, I thought it was getting better. Until last night. Anyhow... what changed my mind? Life was crazy busy last night. And above all the other stuff going on that defined crazy, I met someone who was acting crazy. Well, you know how distracted people can get driving right? They talk on cell phones, text, eat cheeseburgers, shave, apply lipstick, drop something on the floorboards, fiddle with the radio, etc. Well, officially as of last night, I saw an all new high of stupidity. A driver had a laptop computer mounted to his dashboard that was playing a movie. He was more interested in watching the movie than dropping his load and picking up his empty. He was acting dangerously, and so I stopped him. I asked him to not watch his video in the yard and please please please be thinking of safety. So he pulls out his work permit? Green Card? Some sort of card BS and his lawyers card, and flashes them all at me. I'm not kidding here. Then he goes "You are interfering with my civil rights! I will sue you!" In heavily accented russian. At least I think it was russian. Yea. Dude... you have a high probability of running over my family (or someone else's family) with your 18 wheeler because your stupid distracted driving and I'm crunching... [ Continued ]

My take on Nature and Wildlife by Laeraix Cerys on February 16th, 2010, 3:07 am
Nature and Wildlife: My take I’ve seen some pretty amazing things in the wild. I’ve raced against horses on a four-wheeler. I’ve wrestled hunting dogs and saw those same hunting dogs go after cows like they weren’t huge and dangerous. I’ve been 40 feet under water, swimming with sharks, stingrays and other people. I’ve seen a lot of nature thus far in life, and I feel sorry for people who haven’t. I mean, most people that live in suburbia don’t have a chance to see nature. Kids raised in suburbia actually say that meat and milk come from the grocery store. The first few times I saw this, I thought it was for shock value. Now I’m actually starting to think that kids believe this. And why shouldn’t they? Aside from what their teachers tell them, all they know is what they see at a neighborhood grocery. Am I the only one who finds it sad? I am not a zealous PETA activist. I have raised 6 hogs, 13 chickens, 200+ cows, and 6 horses. It wasn’t fun all the time, and when I did all that, I was a redneck. I absolutely loathed going out every morning to feed the pigs. I hated washing them in 60 degree weather while they squealed and stepped on my feet. But them piggy were clean after words. I on the other hand, was soaked, annoyed, horribly smelly and thoroughly exhausted. The horses weren’t much nicer. We had an old green broke horse named Hammer-Head. He decided that one day, on a calm ride, he wanted to take my happy 10 year old self and GO. He galloped at top speed all the way to the gate. I was so scared…. But it was exhilarating. It has made who I am. It has changed who I am. I am no longer a redneck, but living in the middle of the boondocks will always be a part of me. Why don’t other kids get to experience that? Probably because they’re smart. But… humor aside, wild life has so much to offer, to everyone. Now we live in concrete jungles. Oh!! Wait! We have parks! I forgot about the parks. That’s our little bit of nature nestled among the hustle and bustle of the city... [ Continued ]

My Innocence.. by Diane on September 30th, 2010, 6:20 pm
It's all about stepping forward.
I think the little things makes everything so Ok,I still found myself into this state where no matter what I do or how I do things,it's always a step forward.No matter how tough/harsh is life with you,she will always push you back,make you fall,hit walls,making you to crawl over..you got the remember how the small things and moments can bring you Up again,bring you back to Life.
The innocence is more like brilliance,sometimes makes you smile,thinking that those very moments are perfect and you wouldn't change them for anything.At other times brings tears to your eyes,it's the happiness from inside that makes us wanna cry and don't wanna let it go and pass away.. At some times,I feel like drowning,falling into this pitch dark whole with no way out,I search desperately for a way out..I want to find a safe place,where the "warm comfort isn't a dream" and no tears need to be shared.
I need you now,I want to hold on onto you..please don't pass away from me,please bring me back to life,give me back all those happy moments and give me some more in the future.The innocence inside me is screaming out loud,but slowly the voice is fading away.I have to struggle,to fight this to get to those feelings from back then: calm self,happy smiles and let myself to be stronger.
It's all about stepping forward..Do you need me To?
