    They pass you in the hallway like a cold wind you feel the presence but you don’t see a face to the body. A body in the shadows unwilling to be recognized. Any slight acknowledgement of existence is unimaginable to the shadow. This shadow is not the darkness in a white wall this shadow is a person with warmth to a hand and a beating heart like any other. The only difference is that this young soul has never been in a world so massive with all different types of people with different styles and personalities

    One of the most severe trials that has ever affected my life was when I lost one of the most important people in my life, my grandmother. She was someone who had a major influence in my life, and for most of it she was very sick, in pain, couldn’t move very well she was pretty brittle in that sense. Before this severe tragedy, It never really came to my mind that someone I love could just disappear like that. During her final week of expected time to live, she was the worst, non responsive, incoherent

    The Allegory of the Cave

    Plato wrote “The Allegory of the Cave” in the early 300 B.C. This parable has left many scholars dumbfounded throughout centuries because of the insight Plato fills the pages within the story. It is a story of prisoners trapped in a cave, but specifically about a mans journey from ignorance to knowledge. This is the worldly take on the story—in a biblical point of view it is still a journey from ignorance to knowledge, but in a very different context. The journey from the darkness of the cave into

    My shadow and I Destiny Andersen Shadows come in all shapes and sizes, some little some stout. Some are so small they stick to your feet, some you can't see, but others can. Shadows can be large but nearly invisible, others are misshapen and blend in with the shadows around you. Each person has a shadow, just because you refuse to see it or aren’t noticing it, doesn't mean it's not there. Even the sun has a shadow, but it doesn't need to change it, but it uses it to its advantage. We each

    PROLOGUE: Ma, Eversince I am a child you know I am different. I'm not as tall as the others and I'm not as muscular either. But you never told me I'm different-I'm just special. You always told me that even though I am physically weak, luck is always on my side. Like how I manage to evade a falling boulder, or how I am able to walk away from two exploding cars. Luck, as you define it is a success apparantly brought by mere chance. But now I feel desperate because I can feel I am running out of

    Unknown It’s the shadows where they hide. The unknown. Deep dark corners where only you can see them. They hide till you’re alone. Playing hide and seek behind your back. Tip… toe… tip…toe. You pretend you don’t see that lone shadow as you whip your face forward; that hollow haunting whisper of your name against your neck just before you sleep; and the shape of your guilt right on that mirror. Oh, but there’s no one there. Need more sleep? You hide them in your mind. You’re not alone. You know
