Favorite Quote:
Know the power that is peace. Black Elk
Your naked body should only belong to those who fall in love with your naked soul. Charlie Chaplin in a letter to his daughter, Geraldine


It is the moment when the owl catches its prey.
The crying animal pleads as the owl’s claws sweep it off the ground.
The small, hopeless animal is bullied into a flight that cannot stop.
A flight that will take place above humans’ minds and humans’ hearts.
A battle that is fought everyday, and forgotten about it as quickly as it is started.

I was assigned to write an extended metaphor in English class and I wrote about the moment of realizing you have lost yourself.
