* Its been a long time since I have shared a real life issue I am dealing with with you all, so I guess I will share one now.

Do you see me.
Do you even look me in the eye
Do you notice the black cloud over my head
the slouching of my shoulders
I suppose I don't have everything you want

He has a good voice
He plays ball
He speaks in chapel

I write, and you say you don't like it
I bust my ass for two weeks you say I can do better
I try to play a song for you, you say you don't like it

I guess it's because the stuff you see is not all encouraging
I guess it's because I don't work on your schedule
I guess it's because I don't necessarily listen to the classics

When in reality attention is all I really want 
When in reality I want quality time
When in reality all I want to find is

"I do not know.  I truly do not know."  Then an elongated silence followed ended by some rustling of the bushes by where they were.   Rick raced to the truck and grabbed his rifle and flashlight, and tossed Jackson's crossbow to him.  The two of them waited in anticipation for what was to come hoping that it was one of their wolves.  Then Ash came exploding through the bushes. _______________________________ "Thank God!" Rick erupted as he put his rifle down lightly because it was still loaded. "Don't let out a sigh of relief just yet." Ash panted, "Bramble and I might have found something, but we need to hurry.  We caught a strong scent, so whatever it was, may still be there.  Let's go!" Rick set out four reflectors around the campsite, and jumped into the driver's seat, while Jackson went into the passenger seat. The group took off, Ash leading the way at a steady jog while Rick and Jackson kept a safe distance.  Rick ...

New Year New Me - Blog Goals

As the ball dropped in NYC on December 31, I started to think of some ways to make both myself, and this blog better, and set this blog apart from other blogs.  Granted this is going to be hard so I started to do some brainstorming.  As I started to brainstorm, I came up with several ideas, but a lot of them are going to be really hard to achieve, especially on a students' budget.  I am going to star the ideas that I feel are more of a 3-year plan. After the initial list, I am going to break down each one for you all.  Be more approachable especially when I am going to different places. Stay up to date with my posts.  Post more about stuff that I am going through. Summer Series* Do some Vlogs on either Periscope, Youtube, or Facebook* Be more approachable especially when I am going to different places.

Then-- Rick started to change.  The transition started with the eyes and then started to expand until he wound up with him being slightly bigger than Jackson, the eyes of his wolf-like form, slightly darker than Jacksons', Seeming to show the relationship between the two. The two of them trotted side-by-side, over to the scar-faced wolf and then, with a slight glint of pride the scared wolf said, "Welcome young Jackson.  Rick, do you promise to train Jackson in the ways of the wolf?" __________________________________ Rick stepped towards the Alpha, a glint of pride seemed to reflect off of his wolf like form and a spark of intent sparkled in his blaze orange eyes.   "I will, but not to the point where the monster takes over the man, Brandon ." Ricks' ears fell flat, and he let out a frustrated growl.  The alpha answered his challenge.  The two reared up and claws about the size of an eagle's talons retracted out of there paws, a glint of moonl...
