The Art of the Body
This is true: as a little kid every night when my Mom would kiss me goodnight, she would take my cheek and say, "Goodnight. Don't do drugs. Don't pluck your eyebrows. No tattoos." This started at a time when I barely understood what any of those things were. I'm certain on her deathbed many years from now I will look down on her, take her cheek, and she will still whisper those same words to me again. Those three lessons seem to be the values she holds on high over all other wisdom a parent could pass down to a child. Only three "Thou Shalt Not" Commandments passed down from my mother to ensure-- in her mind-- a safe, productive life.

The Evaluation Of Time
For many 2020 has been a solid brick wall on the train tracks of life, some have found ways to go over said wall, others found ways to smash it down, while some took a complete u-turn. For me it got me thinking on where I want that tracks on the other side to lead. It has got me to examen how I dedicated my time to preCOVID, do I still believe in the causes I have dedicated my life to? Do my actions represent those decisions? And the most important of question all is; why am I doing this?

N00bie Alert
Wow, I am finally doing this. I’ve alway been intrigued by what bloggers do but could never find a real enough blog for me. So I stayed my ass on Tumblr. The beautiful wonderland of depressing quotes, black and white anime gifs and nature scenery and no worries about being grammatically correct (Don’t judge me) I guess now I can be a real blogger who actually speaks on life. Bro/Sis/They/Them/Your Pronoun it is fucking hard living. Take it from a suicidal bitch... well in the past. I will be 100% honest with you and go over different events in my life through this blog but holy shit... I’m rating Earth a -100/10.

GETTING YOUR LIFE BACK ON TRACK
Have you ever had that epiphony moment? That moment when you're in bed, in a bus, cooking dinner, or most likely, sitting on the toilet and realise "damn I really need to get my sh*t together". Well, I've been having that all the time. But the problem is where do you start when trying to 'reset' your life? As a student, I usually always turn to studying and working; as an athlete, I try finding consistency with working out; as a human, I focus on my health and relationship with family and friends.

Don't Cry... You Can Over Come
There is a time in every person's life when you look at yourself and you think. What have I done with my life? I know what your thinking. I am not talking about when it comes to your Job, Career, if you have kids, decided not to have kids, etc. I am talking about those people, whom wake up every day and look in the mirror and cry because they see what they have been come.

Is Joy Real?
Is joy real? I have a friend who I associate with joy. She is the light in every room. Her voice takes up space, but in a way that is welcome, longed for. I never realize how deeply I miss her until she is near me, and then I feel a budding in my chest. She gives me her joy. At least that’s what it feels like.

People with Issues
Since I have graduated from high school, I have noticed some changes in some of the people I went to school with. Some of the people graduated before me, with me, and after me. I understand that after every graduation, every student will go there own separate ways in life. When I see people out and about, and I remember them from when I was growing up I'm going to speak . It's in my blood to speak to people, not to walk around with my head up and think I'm better than people, just because we are out of high school. It's looks like if I role up on some of the people I remember from my younger days, they seem to have a problem with me. They act really rude towards me. They act like the problem they are having since, they been out of high school, are all my fault, or they may think I may have caused some problem while we were in high school, and that is the reason for their problem. I'm going to be real with ya, as a young boy, I had to over come a lot of sickness, and I had to under go a lot of surgies. Therefore, when I was able to return to school, the Ashdown, Junior high school, welcome me back with open arms. Through all my sickness they was able to send all my school work to the hospital, where I was so I wouldn't fall behind. So the teacher's at Ashdown, Junior high school, stayed in contact with the teacher's at Children's Hospital in Little Rock, AR. All they sent was my math and English. I remember asking my mom and the teacher there at Children's Hospital, why don't they send my other subjects like my science and history. My mom told me that math and English was my base subjects. She said I needed them in order to past. So when I return to the seventh grade, the only classes I had to take was my history and science. There was a lot of parents wondering why they didn't throw me in special education, I guess because the number of classes they had me taking, or because alot of my classmates used to help me to my classes because my balance at the time was not good. The teacher's would let me leave class fifteen minutes early, before it was over because they thought I would fall down, while changing classes with other students. From the time I made it back to Junior high school, in the 7th grade up until now in adult life, I have accomplished done a lot in my life. I was shocked that when I made it back to school, to see that alot of the students was not doing to good at all in their school work, or in their everyday life outside school. Some of them got held back in the same grade due to lack of performance in the classroom. In Junior High and high school, there was two students, who brought guns to school. There was a young man who brought drugs to school. Some of the young girls started in the 7th grade getting pregnant. Some girls have a full scholarship, waiting on them when time for graduation, but let a no good as boy say the words I love you. Then the girls will just put her dreams on hold, and forget all about the scholarship. The same thing with the young men. The older generation turns the younger generation to drugs, crime and violence. Other than trying to convince them to further their education. There was a mother who hated the fact that another young lady, was name valentine of her high school class and not her daughter. When this same lady's son was about to graduate, this mother went around town talking about the students, that was not going to be graduating making fun of them. But she didn't say one time about her son was one of the ones that would not be graduating. When this woman daughter, went to college, with the same young lady, who got the Valentine in high school. The mother had no idea that her daughter, was not given it her all. Therefore her daughter was wasting her money that her gave her. Giving her money to men, and letting them use off her mother's shopping card. Then she ended up getting evicted from her apartment. She tried keeping the news from her mother's. She ended up moving in with the young lady, her mother couldn't stand in High chool who was Valentine. The whole time she was a freeloader on Ms.Valentive. Unitl one day Ms. Valentine's, went to her trash can in the kitchen, and found all the job applications, that she had gotten for her friend all ripped up in the trash.
