She has a pulse. Beating heart and tear-stained eyes serve as a reminder that all good things must come to an end. Good things are a pleasant reminder that all bad things must come to and end. And, when you really think about it, life isn’t so bad after all, friend. We move on. Upwards […]
It’s another one of those times where it feels like life is somehow slipping through my fingers and I cannot begin to grasp it. Reminded, yet again, of how quickly things can happen and change in just a short period of time. Tender love turns to harsh loathing. Tears of laughter flow freely as reminders […]
“I often find myself drifting back into that world I can no longer find. Shutting out today’s invading clamor, I return to the fields of crickets along the railroad tracks of my youth.

This world seems to exist at the mercy of an unseen “they”. “They” say what is good for you, bad for you, heart healthy, cholesterol busting, sex enhancing, personality developing, and other aspects of life that never seem to agree with each other.
