I just wanted to share one of my favorite poems I've written. Now, mind you, I wrote this in high school, but I still feel it's rather profound and especially relevant as I'm wrapping up a year of working with several people who are completely incompetent. :)
swimming through the shallow side of dumbness
i choke on a thought
emerging from my imagination
no one could understand my superior intelligence
so i drowned

A deeper shade of gray
I would like to apologize for my absence from blogging. I have been rather depressed the past few months and I am hoping that now I have quit my summer job I will have more time to become inspired, relax, spend time with family (quality time) and, of course, get back to my love, writing.
Depression kills my creativity and makes me numb. Nothing is exciting or inspiring, everything is just a dull gray. I am choosing right now to actively seek motivation, drive, determination and inspiration. I hope that you will follow me on my journey. Comments, suggestions and advice are all welcome and appreciated as usual. I look forward to getting back to myself. Thanks for your patience, understanding and for coming along for the ride.
