Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: High tide: 3 of 64
The river is empty of high tide. It has gone from the middle of a hot, summer's longday. My water has retreated. The low tide shows off the nakedness of the mangroves. The midsummer sun barks down at the mud. Critters scurry from the sun and burrow down stinky holes, that they call home. I want my water back. Take this mud a... More..
Society & Lifestyle > Social Values & Norms Why society needs to slow down: 1 of 21
Yes, society really does need to slow down. Everyone is always in such a hurry to get somewhere or to do something. People want to get home so that they can have more time with their family, husband, pets? But by the time they get home they are too tired to enjoy the lovely family that they had previously longed for. I see y... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Christian Beliefs & Culture Non-Christians' chance in Heaven: 10 of 138
The chance of a non christian getting to heaven, or entering in heaven and actually staying there, I think is the point. I'm wondering who actually thought up this title for an article. I am guessing a Christian. Firstly, how can any person ever know if a person who looks like a "non-christian" is in fact a Christian or not.... More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Judging: 3 of 37
Judge not and maybe I won't judge you. Accept me and I'll do my best accept to you. Walk the line with me See what I must see Maybe even take my hand, then I think you'll understand. But for the grace of God, go I. Same for you, you ought to try. Walk the line, be me. Accept the grace and then you'll see. More..
Other How do I know if I'm born for greatness?: 11 of 82
How do I know if I'm born for greatness? How does anyone know? Greatness is all in your mind or in my mind! It is all about how you perceive yourself in the world around you. What makes you feel great! What make other people feel great! What great idea do you have? What is really important to you, personally? And will you go... More..
Entertainment > Movie News & Previews Movie predictions: Live Free or Die Hard (Die Hard 4): 2 of 13
The Die Hard franchise, I believe, is going to go down in history as an almost, cult legend I remember watching the first two Die Hard movies, way back in the 80's and they were great. Die Hard is up there with Star Wars, in my books. Bruce Willis had left the schmaltzy, Moonlighting series, where he had successfully co-star... More..
Creative Writing > Reflections Reflections: Motherhood: 11 of 64
Motherhood, motherhood, motherhood. I wonder where that word comes from and what it could possibly mean. Is it perhaps due to some ancient, Celtic ritual that women performed in a cave before sunrise on the first day of the spring Equinox. When upon giving birth for the first time (and hopefully producing a wailing yet, stra... More..
Creative Writing > Reflections Reflections: Growing old: 8 of 46
When I was young or younger (I am still young!) I used to dread the thought of being old because I thought that by being an old person, I would miss out on life. That there wouldn't be anything to do anymore and that I would end up being lonely and everyone would find me tedious and boring. I remember thinking that you becam... More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Alcoholism: 17 of 82
They have asked me to write, to wax together some lyrics, about alcoholism. That cunning, deceptive and destructive, dark ism. That entices young people, into watery prisons. Open the door that says, alcoholic fun. Come into the cave. Welcome everyone. Lie on the floor and open your mouth, Let the poison run in till you are ... More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Love does not die: 69 of 312
How can the force of one's life, that is so fierce and strong, ever die and fizzle out, wax, wane, wither and be gone. Love cannot die. It's what keeps us alive. Love joins the world together without it we don't thrive. Why, love cannot die. Because to love is to live and life dies if love ceases. Love is life. To die is to ... More..
