So, I have been writing since I was in middle school. Recently, writing has changed for me. My aunt just passed and she has inspired me so much more to continue writing and maybe even publish a book one day. She wrote and published a bookful of poems to the love of her life and I would like to publish a book of children's stories dedicated to her memory. Writing is now that much more important for me, as it is my way of keeping her memory alive and making her proud.

    Thoughts Are Loud

    Thoughts can be loud even if no one else hears them. They can be controversial. They can be good, bad, and everything in between. They make you cry, laugh, get angry, or confused. They can make you feel smart or stupid. Sometimes you don’t know where they come from, how they got there, or even why they are there. Your mind is always busy. It never stops, even when you’re sleeping it’s hard at work. Your thoughts even run rapid without your permission. We form thoughts about ourselves and other people. Thoughts about situations whether they are real or not. They are endless. Sometimes you want them to slow down but they won’t. People struggle with their thoughts to the point of them reaching out for help through therapy, self medication, loved ones, religion, and more. Controlling your thoughts and even the actions that follow some of those thoughts, is one of the hardest things to accomplish. Personally I’ve tried all sorts of ways to get my thoughts to slow down and make sense. Therapy, Religion, loved ones, coloring, etc. God has helped me see things through a different light on many occasions but that doesn’t mean I don’t struggle. I still have many nights where my mind races negatively and I often find myself crying because I just wanna sleep and not think all those things. My faith helps so much but even as a Christian thoughts are still very difficult to face sometimes. I have found through writing and through two very close friends that it is possible to slow down and breathe a little. The first step is to realize you want and/or need help. The next step is getting those thoughts out. Writing is a great tool. Physically seeing what you think about on a daily basis is healthy. Take time to sit back and review your thoughts, you may figure out solutions, you may figure out the why. You may even start to notice the difference between your useful and useless thoughts. Another method you could always try is talking. I know hat trust is very difficult now days for many people. But if you do have someone you can trust, talk to them. Explain what’s been on your mind. And whether they just listen and/or try to give you advice, it will help I promise. I have noticed through myself and others that talking is such a relief and helps you feel more calm and like you’re able to breathe again. If you’re in a good place already but you know someone who is struggling, try to get them to talk to someone even if its’s not you. If they feel like they can’t do that try to convince them to write it all down. No one has to read it they just have to express it and let it go. Above all these things if you have faith in your religion, pray! To whomever you believe in. Even though that step can be a challenge it is well worth it. I hope this helps you guys and I hope you enjoyed tonight’s read.

  • KindnessKindness

    Kindness

    Kindness goes further than you think. You will never know what a simple smile could do for a stranger you pass by in the store. Or paying for the person behind you in a drive through. Lending a jacket or a pen to a classmate. Giving someone something that belongs to you that not only made you happy but them as well. There is an infinite amount of things we can do or say to make someone happy, to give someone hope. To let someone know they are not alone, that there is a bright side, that happiness is possible. You can do great things. You can change the world with the most simple task. People see you, you're not invisible. People of all ages watch you, your reactions, your mood, all sorts of things. How you react to situations especially when they involve others is very important. It reflects your character, your heart, and shows how you treat others. Yes, it's okay to have a bad day but just because things aren't going as planned doesn't mean there's not a bright side. It doesn't mean you can't end the day on a good note and find so many things to be grateful for in the midst of a storm. If someone chooses to be hateful to you just let it go, I know it may seem next to impossible but it is very possible. Be the bigger person, even if someone is mad at you or lies to you or blames you, or any number of things. Choose to be kind, walk away if you know you'll be just as hateful back. You will affect that person way more by being kind than you will if you stoop to their level and give them negative attention. They are expecting a mean reaction back, but you can shock them by being kind and even praying for them if you believe in God. The whole point of this message is to show you that no matter the situation or circumstance. Whether it be a hateful comment, a rainy beach day, a mean customer at your job, a teacher being unfair, a sibling or family member arguing, and the list continues you can ALWAYS choose kindness. Choose the best way out. You can change the whole situation around with how you respond or react. If you spill your coffee on your favorite shirt instead of getting angry find the positive side. Spray it with a cleaner and wash it right away. Or find it online and replace it. Remember that you are lucky to have enough shirts to have a favorite. If someone pushes you in line to a ride because they are impatient, step out of the way and kindly let them pass. Don't make a comment just let it go. They will notice that. They may feel bad or be shocked, they may even try to fix it. Or fix how they treat people. There is an endless amount of situations that could be changed so easily by responding kindly. It's not just for them but also for you, you'll be more at peace. You won't have any consequences because you didn't do anything wrong or bad. I hope this message helps people realize that this world doesn't have to be as mean as it is.

    Losing Someone

    Most people say there are no words to describe losing someone you love. As much as I'd like to say that as a way out, I am going to find the words.

    The Beautiful Field

    The sun was shining brightly on this beautiful morning. The jungle was awake early and thriving as magnificent monarchs and hyper monkeys were passing through the canopies. Along with snakes rapidly racing on the forest floor and elephants galavanting through the rivers. These beautiful creatures were only few of many. One little tiger cub in particular was quite curious. He had begun to roam around uncrossed boarders without his mother at only eight weeks old. He was extremely brave for this, and the most brave out of his siblings at that. He ventured out to a new place with a gorgeous waterfall that filled out into a small pool area. Which was surrounded by a grassy field, that felt super soft to his little paws. He wandered around for a while, along with playing by himself enough to tire out. He decided to lie down and rest on the soft grass he was so fond of. Suddenly, he awoke to a sound coming from the bushes behind him. He turned around quickly, as he slowly backed away towards the waterfall. The sound was getting louder and the bushes began to move. Whatever this was, it became closer and closer to meeting small cub face to face. He had backed up to where he could go no further, for his back paw was now touching the pool of water. Not knowing how to swim, he began to panic and cry frantically. To his surprise and relief it was his mother, who had been upset and on the hunt to find her little one for what felt like forever and a day. They met up and hugged before lying down, both amused to be together once again after a lengthy afternoon. The mother began to bathe him, since he had gotten fairly dirty from playing in the field. They spent a while in this beautiful place before returning home... Home at last! Little cub gratefully ate his dinner their mother had prepared for them that evening. Once he was finished, he snuggled down safe and sound on a bed made of leaves, with his siblings, who had already made it warm... The following morning the cubs slept in while mama tiger took a morning stroll to enjoy a small amount of leisure time. A time that doesn't occur very often anymore. Her mate had passed away about six months ago, trying to save her from a vicious male tiger that had tried to attack her for being in his territory. She missed him at times but she was strong for her cubs and carried him with her always. When she returned, she was delighted to find her little ones all bouncing around waiting for her to let them go outside and explore. They were so excited they completely forgot about breakfast and had to calm down, so they could sit and eat. The day moved by quickly and pretty soon it was nighttime once again. Mama tiger was laying them down when she noticed something was off. She then realized that her brave little baby had left once more. Very concerned, she left to find him. Along the way she started to call for him, but no answer ever came in return. After looking for a bit, she finally remembered where he was the day before. She headed to that beautiful grass field, and that's when she saw her baby boy. He ran to her side thrilled to see her. He tugged her tail, trying to get her to follow him, she began to follow. He took her to a mysterious cave behind the waterfall. He didn't seem anxious, but his mother was indeed distressed. To her delight he had discovered a doorway to another field, only this was gloriously made and stretched for as far as the eyes could see. The giddy cub took her through to show her it was safe. She now understood why he liked going to the field, because she also fell in love with this place. It appeared to be so peaceful and elegant. Soon after, they brought the rest of the family there to roam around and play. They all had the time of their lives. The Mama tiger had finally decided it was safe and made it their new home. After a few days they had come across new water areas, more food, and plenty of resting places in the sun, as well as some shady spots... Months passed and the brave little cub started to miss home, so he left on a quest to that special place. Along the way he came across a snake, he got frightened but tried to ignore it. Then all of a sudden it went for him. He was bitten and bolted almost immediately after. He ran to his old home and decided to lie down and rest because he wasn't feeling well. He had been there for a couple hours, but couldn't get back up when he tried to. In fact, he could barely move at all. He tried to call for help, but he knew they were too far to hear him. He eventually used all his willpower to get up and mosey back to the waterfall, refusing to go back into the hidden field because he didn't want his family to worry. He knew something was very wrong. Knowing that, he decided to make a barrier around the waterfall entrance ensuring nothing could bother his family. Now they couldn't get out and he couldn't get in, but at least his family was safe. Knowing his father looked after family, he followed in his footsteps. Mama tiger had figured out later that evening, that he hadn't returned. But when she tried to go look for him she realized they were trapped. She was confused at first until she remembered something that happened a long time ago with her first litter of cubs. Her mate had trapped everyone in a small cave to protect them when he was hurt. It was for their safety while he healed. She knew then that her baby boy had learned what being a protector was and that he now took the role of lead male. She began to call and see if he would answer. He did, but she could tell something was wrong. They communicated until he became too tired to speak. They said a sad but heartfelt farewell before alerting her other cubs... They mourned for a few days, but they knew why they were there. They knew he led them there to keep them safe, and that he was very special. They never forgot him as they grew up... One day, they all went up to the barrier and broke it. They made a flower place near the pool for brave little cub. They would sit there together from time to time enjoying the view and memories of brave cub. They never left that home, even when they started their own families. Before they knew it, an entire population of tigers were bred and kept safe in that beautiful field. This would be a forever home for these tigers.
