"I'm sorry but I don't want to be an Emperor - that's not my business - I don't want to rule or conquer anyone. I should like to help everyone if possible, Jew, gentile, black man, white. We all want to help one another, human beings are like that ( Read more... )

Have you ever worn anything for so long it almost becomes a part of you? For some it's an old baseball cap, or a necklace, or even a pair of earrings.

The saddest scenario of life in my opinion, is never being able to live it the way you'd like. Filled with regret is the man who looks back on the past only to realize he stares into a clearer reflection of the present.

My brother's girlfriend gave me a call a few days ago, and asked if I could help her out that coming Friday with a group of little ones she teaches. I didn't really think it was a big deal, so I said it wouldn't be a problem, and unknowingly signed my life away as the phone hung up ( Read more... )

This whole week has been pretty damn tiring. My brother is taking care of business with his ex-girlfriend, which has thrown the rest of us into a whirl of chaos ( Read more... )

My uncle woke me up today, and told me to get dressed so we could try our luck on some lottery scratches. I finally started to get dressed after a good 5 minutes of finishing up my sleep. At the door my father was all ready with his pocket full of coins, to see what he could buy with all that metal he's collected over the month. It's kind of a ( Read more... )
