No more lowercase!

hahaha I just looked up how to disable the all-lowercase text that my template had. I'm such a noob =).

gives you courage to overcome life's obstacles.

i had a very humbling experience when i opened up my inbox today. sometimes you keep a blind eye to people who may look up to you, trying not to inflate your ego. but you can't really do that, because someone who looks up to you... looks up to you. we lead each other.

i haven't been very proud of myself lately... heck, when am I ever proud. but there's a definite bit of peace that i'm lacking. it's not school, family, church or any one subject that's bogging me down. it's balance that i seek! i am terrible at balancing things out. i try to stay level but i've never had good balance. i've been devoting so much to school, that everything else seems to be going to heck.

i guess i've tried to make up for that during this spring break. i've spent time with family, friends, neighbors. i've done some cleaning, some fixing, and too much eating. now it's time for me to start to get back into the school groove, because it's gonna come up on me like a raging tiger! so in a couple of minutes i'll be working on a sewer interceptor design, yum!

i owe thanks to those who 'look up to me' and to those i look up to... you guys give me courage, and remind me to find my center once i wander off.

strength comes

and goes. strength comes from within. strength comes from above. strength comes from below. strength comes from without. strength comes.

heart ache makes my heart ache.

hey world, why are you so troubled? wish there were more i could do to help, but i'm just one. i do what i can... but sometimes i'm not so sure... wish there were more...

A collection of poems

here are some poems i had written a while back... i should write poems more often... or should i not? you be the judge.


Death is part of nature’s prose.

As I sit by her side, I can see the light go from her eyes.
All at once I feel like a parent consoling a child. A man losing his wife. A child losing his mother.
I just sit by her side and watch her wait as her body fails.
The life in her is faltering.
I sit by her side and hold her hand.
Can you see it in my eyes? I wish to tell you we'll meet again.
We'll meet again.

[canceled] set me free pt. 2

I wanted to make a nice blog about this (see 2 blogs down), but I am not so sure. I plan on doing a talk on this some time in the future and will unload then & there. The low down, however, is a message about freedom, how it's misunderstood today. How i gained it, and what i choose to do with it.

it's now time for me to study groundwater. have a blessed day.
