Life is fragile and it can be very confusing to just simply be a living person. So when you see something that bothers you in even the slightest because it means something to you, even with no personal experience, (which would cause a flood of sometimes misguided feelings as well) would you be willing to stand up and confront the issue or would you feel hopeless as if nothing can be done about it?

    You CAN do something about things no matter what you have been told before or how many times prior to now you have been discouraged, there are options that can involve......

   My sister has a 7 year old daughter who she loves very much. When I babysite her daughter we tend to have fun and play games and such. But when my sister gets home from her job she often screams hateful things at my niece that make me want to confront my sister. I have told my sister before that there is no need to scream so loudly or hatefully at my niece but she always tells me that until I am a parent that I will not understand things fully.

   It's true that I am probably missing out on parenting skills but one thing that I do not lack......

   "Dorgo has drawn your bath water," said Fialah in a sorrow filled voice. Alzafour turned to see that his love was standing at the door and a warm smile came to his face. Fialah mustered up the best fake smile that she could manage and walked to stand in front of Alzafour. He gently ran his fingers threw her silken hair and then kissed her. "If I would have lost the battle I'm afraid my spirit would have haunted this house for eternity," whispered Alzafour after pulling away from......

   Lightning struck no more than a mile away yet it startled the two men not one bit. The boom of the flash of light that came from the heavens only ignited the two to fight once more. The man that stood next to the olive tree with a ribbon wrapped around one of it's leaves was the first to draw his saber in an upward motion barely clipping the other mans ear as he himself used his own blad to strike the weapon from his foe's hands.

   The victor who still held onto his blade walked......

   I'm writing this now because I am reflecting on a mistake that I choose not to mention for now and how it effected me compared to how it might effect others. When I made my mistake, I kicked myself hard for knowing that I should not have done it, I even felt like going and mking ammends even knowing that it might make things worse. I had to have a friend of mine talk me out of saying sorry because of the nature of what I did. But sadly many people who do something wrong continue doing things wrong to the point that they no longer feel bad about......

  You might have heard the phrase reverse psychology right? Well chances are that you may be living your life in about 85 percent based on some sort of purposeful or non-purposeful reverse psychology. You might ask how I got this information and I tell you that it is as simple as telling a kid to not play in the street. The kid often from hence forth might be playing in the street. You tell them to not do practically ANYTHING and you will find them doing just the opposite of what you told them to do.    

   Parents make the mistake of using reverse psychology on their kids by accident by often telling their kids NOT to do something or NOT to say something and then they themselves turn about their own business and do just what they warned their kid to NOT do. It has been said over and over again by some of the brightest minds on this planet that the best way to teach your kid is to lead by example. It is said......

This world is not kind, in many ways this world has hatred seeping through and through, but in rare occassions, there is a light at the end of a tunnel that can be signified as another person who can help you. The wars and violence, the racism, the injustice, the tollorence for evil, the allowing of bad, the loving of what is wrong has been a blind fold over many peoples eyes for a long time. People no longer see each other and hope for good yet they struggle to meet one who would love them and accept them as who they are. Some people can be so evil and hate filled that they only think of killing all the time, and to those who are like that, what they......

Toreth: I see that which is coming and I worry not for it has already came and gone without an usher of unfair tidings to my soul once before.

Danev: But you must not see that the ones that are coming are filled with hate and in them they feel the anger of a many storms conglomerated into mess that will threaten us.

Toreth: I see what you see but let us not look upon such hazardous things for now; my heart is seeking that which is pure and uncorrupted and you have tried to sway my motive to be buoyant on wicked things.

Danev: It is for a reason and a good motive in that I willed you to see what I see for it comes with torment and horrible aching and betrayal I see too...will you not say that you fear it?

Toreth: I do not fear that which has already arrived and that which has passed me, for in the eyes of one lost spirit I was fine apart from the olive groves......

All the pills we take, all the life's we break, all the aching wounds ablaze that we make.

All the troubled thoughts, all the hurting minds, all the love we seemingly left behind.

All the people who, cared and loved for you, trashed the times you had, now you are so sad.

Picture in your head thankful that you’re not dead, leave the lie behind and face what we can't hide.

The truth can be miserable the words that are spoken, our hearts can be mythical all while their broken.

The winds can be dazzling, blowing asunder, and teaching us lessons that we can still wander.

Every closing door leaves the lock shut tight, every single day turns my blood to night, every whisper of the cool and pleasant voice, is a whisper I face and a time of my choice.

Insane do our minds drift out of control, we leave all the lives that we had to once know, we tell our deep secrets and hope in return, our hearts will not empty but for love will yearn. 

You don't know what S.U.D.S. stands for?

Well let me be the first to let you know, that by what I have learned from someone who I hold great respect in, that SUDS stands for seemingly unimportant de cisions.

Don't let this baffle you though, I sometimes speak in jumbled words, but the de cisions of course are one word but let’s just go along with this lesson now.

SUDS can get you into trouble; whenever you fail to do what is correct or orderly, and when you do something that is wrong without giving first the proper thought that any decision usually takes, you have just involved yourself is the classic SUDS scenario!

You might wonder why I make such a big deal out of this and I'll tell you why I am making a commotion: our world leaders are constantly making SUDS when they fail to think fully about important decisions that we have to live threw.

Not just one leader is responsible but it seems to me that ALL leaders (especially in times of war) are acting......

   Shocking news from the Pentagon today as President Bush gave a national speech announcing that the draft had been reinstated despite all that had been done over the last 7 years of conflict against terrorism and their combatants. George W. Bush seemed to be remorseful for the fact that he had ordered such historic and ground breaking news earlier today despite the fact that he shared a seemingly humorous time while having lunch with the Secretary of Defense.    

It hasn't been more than 40 years and already we have found ourselves as American citizens facing either supporting our country or going into prison and  being looked at as a coward. Either way, the choices for millions of unfortunate Americans will be rough considering that Iran and Russia are now both threatening the United States with a lethal payload of their nuclear arsenal if we attempt to invade."I'm......
