Tom

Meet Tom. Tom is 6'5 and very athletic with soft hands. He wears glasses due to his awful nearsightedness and is always well groomed. Tom is sometimes a mouth breather and walks like a duck, but he has a very nice beard with a pretty face and thick eyebrows with multiple piercings. Tom is kind of a douche. He is self involved and can be vain. He can be annoying and anti social, but to even it out he is also a love of music and is a bit colorful when it comes to his personality. He likes games and is involved in many social networking sites. Tom does what Tom wants because thats just Tom

Magic Wands

I think as a kid we all had a Magic Wand at some point. We pretended that it gave us the power to control things we either had no control of or didn't like. Then Harry Potter came out and instead of grabbing colorful sticks with stars at the top, we went to the backyard to grab limbs off the trees..its easier to believe in magic than it is to believe in the horrors that this world contains. We would rather try to look on the bright side than face that this situation may not ever get any better. It would be great if magic wands were real and we could shape the world to fit our dreams. Except for those who would use it to instruct chaos and disorder....with every action there is a reaction I guess. Cant have one without the other. Good and Evil. Forever forced to love and need one another. Kind of like a bad relationship lol. Can you imagine if nothing ever went wrong? Your car never broke down, you were always on time, people are always polite and curtious. A perfect world almost. The saying is true, Too much of a good thing isn't always a good thing. Sometimes the things we think would make like easier would actually cause more problems. Things happen because we make them happen, not because of a magic wand, or magical powers. We would never appreciate anything if we did have those things!

Sliver Necklace

Currently I am looking at a plastic necklace with silver beads. It isnt broken. What would happen if I were to break the ends keeping it together? Would the beads fall off the chain or would they stay? Would the necklace be any less beautiful if it were broken? No, sure you may need a new chain for it or maybe some kind of glue, but the necklace is still good. Just because you may feel broken, doesn't mean you cant put the pieces back together. You will need to be patient because not all the parts will fit back into place like they once did. You may need to replace some pieces with new ones. In the end you can always pull yourself back together. It just takes the right tools and time. For example. My last relationship almost shattered me when it ended and I use to not be able to look at him when we would cross paths, but today I saw him and just simply smiled. It didn't hurt anymore. He was just another person. Sure its a little weird but im ok. I'm no longer broken and the pieces of me that I had given to him, I got back. Its all about perspective. Choosing to let someone or something destroy you. No more will I allow someone to tear me down and break me. My silver necklace has been fixed and its never looked more beautiful. Don't get me wrong, some days are better than others but every day is a journey and adventure. Its what you make of it. Don't let someone break your silver necklace

Credo. In latin, means "I believe"

After reading a short story called Always Go To The Funeral, I felt very compelled to agree with a few of the statements made in it.
"Always go to the funeral" means that I have to do the right thing when I really, really don't feel like it. I have to remind myself of it when I could make some small gesture, but I don't really have to and I definitely don't want to."   Going to funerals is never fun, but there are two reasons why people go. To either pay their respects and be there for the family or, because they need closure from the death and want a chance to say goodbye. I think the moral of this credo is to say that there are always going to be things in life that we don't want to do, but its generally those things that we end up doing so we can be there for someone else.
In a way this credo is a positive saying by using a not so positive experience, funerals. That's ok though, sometimes its through the dark experiences that we can see the light better. In life we need credos to inspire and keep us moving forward. It gives us something to believe in! Like Santa on Christmas, or an inspiring movie like Harry Potter. As people we want to be great and achieve great things, its been this way since man was created....http://www.npr.org/2005/08/08/4785079/always-go-to-the-funeral

My Credo
   Eleanor Roosevelt once said, "Do the things that interest you and do them with all your heart. Don't be concerned about whether people are watching you or criticizing you. The chances are that they aren't paying attention to you." All these quotes really get me thinking about what it is I believe in. I believe in love and passion and kindness. So much of todays problems are brought on by hate and anger. We need to learn to let go of the past and move forward with open hearts and minds. Forgive those who have wronged you, not because they deserve it but because you deserve peace. Now I didn't write that and im not sure who did but it goes along with what I believe. Take more road trips, hug longer, listen to music every day and embrace nature. Go back to your roots if you ever find yourself lost. Take time for yourself more. Leave behind those who do not wish to help you grow as a person but instead wish to keep you in the same spot. Realize that even though the world isn't a perfect place, you have the power to make it better. Things happen the way they are meant to. I’m not calling it fate. We have the power of choice. There is no such thing as a coincidence all of our choices lead us down a different path. We just get to choose how we get there and how the game ends
