  • Desiring Nothing = Possessing All

    I was at work today on a personal call and had an epiphany or maybe just a duh moment. You all know that rule. The one that states that when your with someone, that everybody wants you and when you single, nobody does. Its been said a million different ways like, “a watched pot never…

  • Just laugh until it makes sense

    Rhyming Contradiction Let your eyes go out of focus and try not to blink Take twelve shots and try not to drink Work hard and try not to stink Flirt and try not to wink Drown and try not to sink Mix white and red and try not to pink Feel small and try not…

  • Are you still spotting for me in heaven?

    Dear Melissa, While I can’t talk about everything we’ve been though, its only right that I write what I can. I remember the first day we met about 15 years ago in Mississippi. You and those glasses that made you seem so mean. You were mean. But even though we were so young I knew…

  • “Ahhh!” Screams the head of the nail as the hammer comes down on it

    So a long time ago, I when I was a junior in high school, I took a psychology class. The teacher gave us one of those floppy disks (yea it was that long ago) to take home. On the ancient floppy, there was a program on it that asked some questions and based on those…

  • I’m Feeling You Dog!

    You ever seen that show Heroes? Its kinda like X-Men without the leather. If you haven’t then you should because some people are like that. Now granted they don’t just jump in the air and start flying around all willy-nilly but their “gifts” are powerful nonetheless if not a little more subtle. Now most of…

  • I plea insanity

    I finally understand madness. Its one of those, “You had to be there” or “Walk a mile in another man shoes” kinda deal. I won’t say what caused it or if I’m better yet but I thought it would be a good idea to get it all written down in case I ever find my…

  • The Catch Up

  • 5th Gear

    MISSION STATEMENT         To live everyday better than the one before it. To understand and outperform myself. To clean my weaknesses with my strengths. To appreciate, enjoy, and share my blessings. To grow wiser through my successes and failures. To realize my true mental, physical, and spiritual potential. To live a life of significance.…

  • Tsuiokuhen and Seisouhen

      There are few true masterpieces in this world. Works of perfection so pure and untouched that the mere observance or interaction with them magnifies one’s own flaws so much that one must take actions to better them self. Maybe that is the purpose of a masterpiece, to encourage one to realize the masterpiece within…

  • The Secret is Out

    Things will be so much different this year. I will be where my boss was, “she” won’t be here. I will be the only warmth in my bed. Hopeless romantic, ha! I made a decision to cross a bridge into new territory. I don’t think I’ll be able to cross it again, only wave to…
