The Best Way to Know Life
Embracing Joy and Strife, Finding Beauty in Every Place
In the end, the best way to know life
Is to embrace its joy and strife
To feel the sun on your face
And find beauty in every place
To hold your loved ones close at night
And cherish each and every sight
To learn from both the good and bad
And make the most of what you've had
To follow your dreams with all your might
And never give up without a fight
To live with purpose, love, and grace
And leave a positive, lasting trace
Yes, in the end, the best way to know life
Is to live it fully, without strife
To appreciate each precious day
And make the most of every way.

I AM
This is not who I thought I would be. Before my family was captured and forced into slavery, I had aspirations of becoming a wealthy business owner or possibly a scholar and philosopher. Becoming a warrior was the furthest thing from my mind. Unfortunately, our Roman conquerors had other plans.

We'z Walking on a Path Ruled By Numbers
This road has felt endless, yet limited; every step tracked. Inching away along this path, I feel trapped. Confined. Left to this narrow passage that may one day amount to something greater. Time is not a concept. Only distance. From start to finish, I laugh and cry and attempt to convince myself that this is worth it. I cannot stray. I must keep going. Every step etched, is a step taken, is measured as more than before. I cannot even recall how I got here. Maybe I don’t even really exist. Just another tick marking off a perceived presence. Of what though? I am just another line drawn. Nothing more, nothing less.
