Today is a good day.
Because of you, I’m here to stay.
I’ve been given purpose.
Art, Funnies, Horror-galore.
Dreams, signs, Spirituality, and more.
I have so much to offer.
Boosting your happiness is all I could ever ask for.
But, there’s more I want to do.
Maybe take things up a notch or two.
Regardless of what the future may bring, thank you for the support and everything.
Now here’s to one year, and many many many more!
I awake to find myself under infinite blue light. One moment I find myself stuck between multiple realities, sitting under a tree, to now this.
I feel no pain, no worry, no sorrow, no fear, no anger, nothing. No… not nothing. Instead I feel ‘complete’. I feel whole, like as if everything that I had ever wanted or needed was with me right now.
I felt infinite joy; a wave of pure light consumed me and now I find myself in this beautiful, beautiful light; the same light that consumed me.
I no longer had a physical form; no longer bound to the earth where I once stood. I felt so free, it was liberating. I was right where I needed to be.
The best part is, all I could feel is love. Infinite love. I wasn’t alone either. No, I felt surrounded by a sea of everything that is and what was; which was with me now.
I didn’t care about the things I would have cared about if I was back upon the earth I stood. Everything felt perfect.
Just when I thought I was free of commitment, I felt the spirit in blue speak to me again. “It’s time to go dear little one.”
“Wait, no… NO!!! I don’t want to go. Please! No!” I started to feel afraid. I began to cry uncontrollably. I didn’t know what to do.
“There is much work that needs to be done. And you are the biggest part to it. The key.” The voice paused for a moment. “You are safe dear child. No need to worry.”
“I don’t want to go spirit!” I cried out loud.
“You won’t be gone for very long my dear. We need your help.”
“Why me spirit? Why me?”
“You shall see shortly.”
A great flash of light once again consumed me and once again I found myself sitting on the gnarled roots of the glowing tree. I looked up and found that the orb that was once the spirit in blue took on a different form.
This orb now had eyes and a small shimmery halo above its head.
“Are you still the-” The cute little creature nodded its head and started to float around me. I looked at it in amazement. In all my years I have never seen something so unique in my entire life!
“Let’s go!” the little orb enthusiastically squeaked, grabbed me by the collar of my shirt, and carried me off the grown. Here we go again!
I have lost track of all the days I have wandered aimlessly, eyes drained of tears and body depleted of energy.
My heart tells me to keep going, but my mind tells me to back down, give up.
The dreams of the fallen have shattered in front of my eyes.
Like their dreams, my heart broke along with them. I lost myself.
I lost myself only to be found again. I found myself in the spirit in blue.
I stumbled upon a blue orb in the grass today.
Infinite beauty is she. Balanced power adds he.
It was as though the orb was there, waiting for me the whole entire time.
Am I really worthy of the orb’s eternal power?
As I stood in the early evening dusk on my skin I felt something, perhaps a gentle breeze whirr past my ear… “Take the orb my dear, it is yours”.
A great jolt of energy shot up from my feet through my head. With every fiber of my being ignited, I knew exactly what needed to be done.
I swiftly grabbed the orb from the grass and ran off with it into the twilight.
I have lost the will to be anything other than me.
The weight of the mask bears too much on my fragile heart.
I’m not a terrible person; I am a person who seeks love and belonging.
I search despite the fact I feel as though I am unworthy for it.
I have grown sick of the twisted melodies flooding my mind every single night.
I no longer wish to hide from the world for it has already consumed me to a morsel of dust.
Dear mind, please let me be me for once.
I no longer wish to fight this losing battle.
Set me free from this disguise so I can finally heal from my seeping wounds.
I deserve to have a chance too…

Science and Marine Biology have come a long way when it comes to understanding our oceans and the life that continues to thrive within it. However, there is still so much work and research that has yet to be done, especially for one of the most misunderstood species on the planet: Sharks. OCEARCH is dedicated to conducting research on sharks through tracking (which you can track them via their website) as well as educating others and offering free curriculum to students grades K-8. They have made over millions of impressions online via their website, Facebook, and Twitter. OCEARCH and their supporters have and continue to dedicate their time, money, and efforts to obtain as much research as possible to inspire others.
One of the steps we can take to help preserve the environment would be to learn and obtain as much knowledge of it that we can, one day at a time.

There is something that I’ve wanted to do for a little while and I wanted to give a heads up on what it is. I have interests in several different special causes, non-profits, organizations, charities, etc. What I am going to do is once a week I am going to post and feature a reputable special cause, what they’re about, and how we can help.
I’ve learned over the years that even the littlest bit of effort counts; whether it be community service, donating, or even just sharing the cause with others and spreading awareness.
So with that being said, I am going to go forward and begin!
If you have an organization or special cause that you think would be important to share, let me know and I’ll feature it! All I need are the groups credentials, what they do, and how they contribute towards the specific cause.
