I can see the youth in people's eyes
when they are doing something they love
or telling the story of a good memory
when they listen to a favorite song
or see an old friend
our spirit doesn't age
old people that still enjoy life
are worth knowing
their existence proves getting old is a choice
the body may have limits
but deep down we are all that hopeful child
if we encouraged curiosity far past childhood
and showed everyone the gentleness we show children who are still learning their way
especially if we made it easier for children to keep chasing their dreams
we wouldn't get old so fast

I want nothing more than to dedicate my life to writing, so I figured I would start here to test the waters. I will be submitting stories to as many communities as possible.
The Grand National
The Image is an AI Image By Me,And I Know Everything is Wrong Here - Just Like The Grand National. The Grand National is a disgusting event. Too many horses in a race that results in many horses being put down after each race. This is not a race it is a mass execution.

Disarmament
They say there's no atheism in the foxhole. While I wasn't currently neck-deep in a river of soft sediment, I was still praying to whoever would listen. Why am I doing this again? I would ponder while staring at the device that in no less than a minute could be my undoing. I scanned each and every variable panel and commonplace button as I watched the bright red L.E.D ticker countdown. No wires to cut, no code to put in, there was only one way to stop this infernal machine, and that incurred perfect timing.
