Upon thumbing in the English dictionary while writing a paper, I thought I’d see what I could tease out of the word “life”. Life, as of lately has been about elasticity. Much to my surprise, they got it right…though life could never be confined to one word or another. I am not ”right” nor are they, nonetheless, [...]

Can you imagine standing on the verge of a city, or perhaps the ruins of one, that you had only ever seen in a dream? And what if, for that brief moment of where you stood, you were convinced that it wasn’t just a dream all along, but the delicate dealings of destiny or what the Greeks [...]

When was the last your heart gave out on you?
It would be foolish to assume your heart has never been overwhelmed. Surely, it has.
This very day, mine gave out on me. I went to the movie theater today. The movie was ‘P.S- I Love You’, adapted from the novel by Cecelia Ahern. Yes, the theater was [...]

I packed my bags and grabbed my [...]

Do you ever have those moments where you think to yourself that things couldn’t get any worse? Or maybe you’ll be completely enjoying yourself and then you’ll remember why you needed to enjoy yourself in the first place… and then the guilt of enjoying yourself is just far too much so you pick up the guitar [...]

I walked the streets tonight. I can’t quite describe just how it was. Snow on the ground and up above, on my boots and in my lashes. It was the kind of night full of subway steam and silhouettes. There was no wind and no moon to be seen.
The Christmas lights have been strung. The pond now frozen [...]

It’s amazing what music can do to you, for you. It’s the “Speed of Sound” by Coldplay.
It sounds exactly like what waves look like underneath your ferry ride. It’s almost mechanical, churning over and over again. Almost like it has a mind, one that will never rest, exhausted by its inevitable ability to do [...]

Noah recently did one of these. Could be cliche, but who’s lookin’? I think this would be something difficult to do, especially if you’re being true. So here it goes?
Ten Random Things About Me

If you’re anything like me, I’d like to know, why is it we can never say the things we mean to say and when we mean to say them?
Words are never sufficient, that much is certain. I find myself having a tough time getting by with them, let alone without them. How do you tell [...]
