Courage

What is courage? Writing about courage is a hard thing cuz courage is different for every person. Courage gives  people strength. The next question I'd ask is what gives me strength? Well I'd have to say my friends. I think the biggest challenge we have in life well, is life. What gives us courage to wake up every morning and go to school or go through out our daily lives? So what gives us that courage? I'd have to say my friends give me the courage to get up in the morning and go to school (which is a legal form of torture) everyday even though I may not like it or even enjoy it. Some people might say courage is when you stand up for something that is difficult like, if you saw some kid getting bullied and you stood up for them even if you didn't know them. people would say you have COURAGE to do that. But what if someone asks you why you did that? will you just answer "Just cuz i have the courage." or would it be "I didn't like what I saw and had to stand up for it" or would it be "I just felt like it?" Where does that put you as?

Brithdays

I thought birthdays were to celebrate you. but as it turns out i was wrong i just had a recent birthday. and it was more of a "Bash day on my day." all i got really was snide comments from family members.  and i got a lecture from my dad  about how i'm making wrong choices so. just to let you know birthdays are really BASHdays.

LIFE and DEATH

Most people ponder about LIFE but what is there to ponder about LIFE but i often ponder about DEATH. why is DEATH so different then LIFE. if there's LIFE after DEATH then wouldn't DEATH just be the same thing as LIFE? So why are people so afraid of DEATH?yes they are dying in this world. but you'll see them in the next right? So again i ask why are we so afraid of DEATH?

Dreams

Dreams. Are dreams real? I often ponder. because if dreams are real do the people in my dreams really get hurt? I get all sorts of dreams from happy ones to sad ones to out right depressing ones where i see my best friends die. What does that mean? does it mean i'll see them die? i'd rather not see them die. expessually if they die in the way they do in my dreams. but i would like my happy ones to come true. like the ones of my dream house. witch is a cottage with acers of land surrounding it full of horses and all sorts of animals with a forest all around it for me to go explore. i quiet like those dreams. or the dreams where i live in Disneyland those are good ones.  . . .but. . .then i wonder if dreams have a meaning. . .if they do what do my dreams mean?

Fear

Fear is a rather hard thing to type about since i'm really only scared of one thing. (those of you that have read my earlier posts will reconize my fear)  My fear is known as the Hooded Man. (aka HM) He follows me he comes in my room like he's wating for the exact moment to attack me. he looks somewhat like that picture but more scarier and menacing. there are sometimes when he has atually attacked me. but he cheats!! he's a freaken cheater!!! i'll plat one blow on him and he dissapears!!!  that COWARD!!!!  but still. . .it scares me what is he planning?. . . .

Prologue

"WILLOW!" Jack said " The council wants to speak to you!" i quickly stood up "okay I'm coming." I ran down the twisted Halls of HQ. My white cloak flew behind me and Xavier ran with me as a White Wolf. I went through the Big Brown doors that led to the council meeting room. "Willow Marksman." Chancellor  Oden said "yes Chancellor?" I said bowing my head respectfully. "We have decided that you will be banned. Due to what the prophecy says we can't have you anymore. but because of your loyalty  so far and your hard word we wont kill you. . .yet." that sent a shiver down my spine. yet. . .it echoed in my mind. "we are going to wipe your memory and send you to a normal world where you can't harm anyone." I nodded "I understand." 

I'm thinking about. . . .

I think about you like piano thinks about the hands playing it. I think about you like books think about there readers. I think about you like a balloon thinks about floating. i think about you like horses think about the grass. I think about you ingredients think about being baked. I think about you like cookies think of getting eating. i think about you like patients think about getting better. I think about you like cookies think about milk. I think about you like games think about playing. I think about you like socks think about shoes. I think about you like water thinks about seaweed. I think about you like the cottage thinks about the guests. I think about you like fire thinks about warmth. I think about you like the ghosts think about haunting.
