Someday. --- A Poem
For one simple thing.
That one thing that will change everything.
That will make things better.
Or worst.
I don't know when it will come.
Or what will happen.
But I don't care.
I want my life to be full of new things.
And experiences.
For it to be something that I won't regret.
Only for this to happen.
I have to do something about it.
What that will be.
I do not know.
But I don't care.
I will make it happen.
Somehow.
Someway.
Someday.

Fearless?
Death. The final calling of any and living being. There is no escaping it, no way of bypassing it. Death is fixed, Permanent and –most of all- inevitable. It’s the thing that dwells in the unknown, revealing itself only to those who have reached the end of their path. Whether it is hell or heaven, reincarnation or infinite darkness, whatever it may be- death is all around us, lurking in the shadows, ready to pounce, and take advantage of everyone’s deepest and darkest fears as it does so
Death is fear, translated down into everyday terms. The fear of spiders, is really the fear of the tiny pinchers, bathed in poison, ready to bite their next victim. The fear of things that go bump in the night, is really the fear of what they just might do to you in your sleep. The fear of flying, is the fear of the death that would follow if the engines of the planes were to fail. People’s fears, whether it’s of insects, fairy-tale creatures, germs, war, or maybe even people with beards – the list that goes on and on, and all have one thing in common. They are all linked to death. Everyone has one fear, one fear that plays on the ancient and primal phobia of death. One thing that makes their heart rate double, that sends shivers down their spine, a feeling which creates an un-healthy churning-sick feeling deep within your stomach.
They say that there is nothing to fear, but death itself. But what happens when you no longer fear death, what do you fear then? What is there left to fear? It everyone has one fear, and there is nothing to fear but death itself, then what? What do you fear?
“The fear of death is the most unjustified of all fears, for there is no risk of accident for someone who is dead.”

Empty Night
This was a thing I wrote last night at about two in the morning, I couldn't sleep, and was just starring out my bedroom window. And I just had to write this. I was beyond inspired.
Till next time.

Family
Some of my favorite childhood memories were from my family reunions. Having all of my cousins, aunts, and uncles together was always fun. I loved setting up the tents in the yard, going swimming whenever you wanted. You see every family reunion we have a play horseshoes. And not just play a few petty, but a full on tournament, with a trophy. My family takes horseshoes very seriously and the teams are randomly made by whoever thinks of it first. And at the last family reunion, I got roped into playing as well. I got paired up with my dad, and surprisingly I had a lot of fun. My dad and I even won two whole games, which is shocking because I am terrible at horseshoes. It’s funny how we have this at the center of family reunions, and it has been for a long time. I am pretty sure that horseshoes has been played at the Forest Family Reunion for at least the past fifty years. Also the youngest person I know of that was one of the champions of the great horseshoes tournament was my cousin Ryan, I think he was fifteen or sixteen years old, and his partner was my grandma, who by the way is awesome at horseshoes. Even my little cousins run off into the shed to get the little plastic shoes so they can play too. My younger cousins are actually the ones who keep score most of the time. We were all just brought up learning the rules of the game and how to play. And when we play, it is fun and amazing, and makes me happy to have a big family.
