There is nothing more daunting than a future decision. Knowing ahead of time that there will be a fork in the road is an all-too-common recipe for anxiety, overthinking, and stress.

Creating Space
We use the term “space” to mean a lot of different things, as a society. Usually, it’s not up to interpretation: space is the void of nothingness that exists between planets and stars. Easy right? Not so fast though, what if I am referring to a comfy space? Or a relaxing space? Or a secureContinueContinue reading “Creating Space”

Nightfalls
The sun hides its face in shadow. Burning fire erupts upon the horizon. Eerie darkness covers the sky. Black clouds rise above the fire; Like smoke that billows from hell’s forges. Now lighter clouds of steam rise behind. Chills cover your skin; Your breath smokes with the cold. Your chest tightens with fear gripping you.ContinueContinue reading “Nightfalls”
Requiem for the Lost
Do we stand, or do we flee? In the far corners of the earth, the Lost Ones shamble. In tattered garb they wonder further. They know not where to go, for they are Lost and can never come home. They leave traces of their passing. The cold darkness and empty feeling is felt in theContinueContinue reading “Requiem for the Lost”

Work, School, And Time Travel
Today is the day that I again dreamt of the impossible. W) Many times during work I daydream. Thinking of what I would rather be doing than sitting in a cubicle inputting data into never ending spreadsheets. Phone calls, meetings, the hub-bub of the office. There is something to be said for the dogged dedicationContinueContinue reading “Work, School, And Time Travel”
Heart of a Warrior
A short story from my notes: At the gates of the castle, the enemy gathers. A warrior stand ready to lead the defense from within. Stance wide and shoulders forward; his body is tense. He hears the battle cry of the enemy outside. He swallows his fear, his shaken hands grip his weapon tighter. ArmorContinueContinue reading “Heart of a Warrior”
The Man Who Died
A short story from my notes: Let me tell you a heartbreaking story: There once lived a Man who died. Yet while this Man lived he owned many things. Once, before he died, the Man prepared a feast. At this feast, gathered many people. Now some where only there for the food; Fewer came asContinueContinue reading “The Man Who Died”
