The village of sickle cell

Hi, I am really down trodden right now. Every time I come home from Mommy Pam and enter my room, I feel like a big mosquito is on my back sucking all my blood away. Sometimes I just close the door and walk away and forget that it looks that way. I've been doing that for quite a while. And it seems to work but deep down I know the mosquito is still sucking my blood. And soon the mosquito will drain me and then I'll clean up all the puddles and dirty bodies of water that attract and breed the mosquitoes. But then, my fellow in habitants won't watch their habits and they'll leave containers about and rain will fall and they won't think to use the water right away or get rid of the standing water. The will leave it and leave it and walk by it everyday. Even though I have instructed them and asked them to please not leave water standing in the open for more than a day because the mosquitoes will use it as their breeding ground. I have shown them by example what a mosquito bite can do but still they do not heed my pleas. Is it possible that I am the only one who suffers an adverse effect when bitten by a mosquito? Could it be that the others have developed some sort of immunity to the effects of a mosquito's bite? Do they all have sickle cell?! Oh, I see it must be so... They find that they can coexist with the mosquitoes. Ah, Alas! I cannot do as they do. I best be moving on from here.

Yours weakly,

Naul's Memory of the wind

Upon my first exposure to the video (on Mnet) with out subtitles, I thought: the guy in the uniform was a Japanese invader.  Japan was bombing Korea. ( I thought of this only because i remember Japan having to do something with bombs. Like Hiroshima; only I switched it around and Japan was doing the bombing. The guy and his daughter were playing and the bombs started approaching. He ran with his daughter but the bombs were faster and the guy in the uniform were getting closer. A bomb came really close and the guy used his body to shield his daughter. (Not really plausible seeing as the human body is not that strong.) Then the Japanese soldier was passing by and aw the little girl and had pity on her. then he ended up liking her so he married her. (Its very illogical because he doesn't age. And I doubt the little girl would have willingly agreed to marry someone whose race, nation help bring about her fathers death.) The Soldier is sexy jumping of his horse; maybe the reaso...

my shattered heart

so i was the one to say the words, to put the ring back into your recieving hand. we were supposed to have become a happy married couple today but we became two disgruntled single people. I said I love you because I do and to talk to me if you needed to talk because I wanted you to tell me I could talk to you. You always thought that i had friends to talk to but i don't. their lives are so shiny and filled with light and to go tarnish it with my problems especially when I think I am the Problem is not feasible for me. I don't have a wonderful man anymore. I pray that he continues to find himself and grow to have a beautiful family that ill probably be envious of and a nice compassionate wife. I don't know what to do with myself. Usually people  who break up with people have somewhere to go, something to focus on. I feel like a dunce at work a pretender and i'll soon be found out and kicked out. I feel like my relationships with people all over are so shallow. ...

Life leaves me wanting.

The way I've lead my life leaves me wanting so much more. For example the last 8 years of my life could have been so much more active, or so much productive, so much more aspiring, so much more of so much more... I could have set goals for myself experimented in more ways life, love, art and faith. In my life I could have been childlike, I could asked the questions I longed to ask save for fear that if I ask them it would seem as if I was rejecting God, rejecting religion. But that's just a part of what I could have done that is so much more. I could have been so much more. I can still be so much more. the entirety of the rest of my life lies  before me. The words that I say, every one of them, a new beginning. The much more that I desire, it's within my grasp. The questions I want to ask, God's ears are open I only need ask; I only need to look forward and test the waters by doing more; to producing more and to be more active. The entirety of existence has not end...
