      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…

    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…

    I have all of my little cousins here and they love the Wii. (duh) I got to eat alot and see a few of my aunties. I wonder if I’ll ever be able to hold the family together like they did? I could never see myself as one of the older people at a family…

    He closes his eyes and lets his mind wander over the last few years like a spider walking on a web of memories. Times past, missed opportunities, friends gained, friends lost, friends that he couldn’t get rid of. Loves and the lessons learned from them. Life changing moments and moments most regretted except for the…

    When I was like 4 and 5 I would stare at myself in the mirror. I never really understood it, I just know what I saw. I would stare into my eyes looking for something, anything. And like a photo developing my preferential vision would blur and fade away and all I would see would…

    Don’t ask me where the idea came from but I decided that Friday at work, I would have 90’s music day. I spent the better part of Thursday night downloading up a storm. It all paid off and about 90% of my clients found themselves dancing, singing along, and generally smiling as a result of…

    The drops are like finger taps on a watery drum. Waking me and lulling me to sleep at the same time. Ironic ain’t it? How a turbulent storm can bring such peace. No matter the time of day or night, time is counted in a more human pace. No longer a second but a heartbeat,…

    In 10 minutes it will technically be my birthday. Thats right, I will officially be 25. Still young by standard standards but I still feel a lot more wiser. Now when one thinks about their birthday, they usually look back at their last birthday. I won’t be any different. Last year’s birthday was filled with…

    I’m still pretty much the same. Just upgraded a little here and there but still essentially the same. Like the same car but with different wheels and computer system. I’ve been a little inspirationally starving even though I’ve had lots of that kind of food shoved my way. Its like I have the lamp that…

    He watches his son ask he begs for 5 more minutes of a movie he sees a glimpse of the future. One of those glimpses like deja vu that he always sees and forgets only to see it again as it happens. He sees his son older as he saw his younger brother, as he…
