A Life's Creed

Life isn't about what you do, it is about who's lives you touch. No matter the troubles or hardships endured, endure them well. Don't let the little things that may seem so big get in the way of what really matters.
As I am coming to the end of a life I have always known a new life unfolds in a marvelous array of colors and patterns yet to be understood. Fear is ever present, but that will not hold me back from moving forward into the wild blue yonder of experience.
Let the things that mean the most grow into the best thing the human imagination could possibly come up with. Life only gets better, no matter the amount of troubles piling up higher and higher. Always have a smile, never leave home without one. Never be afraid to say hello or offer a helping hand. Opportunities are missed when fear takes over.
People come and people go but don't ever let them go unnoticed. Each life that mingles, even if for but a moment, with another is meaningful and special in impossible ways. Treat everyone with respect and love.
Success and failure mean little in life if you are alone at the end of the road. Don't go at anything alone, trust people enough to let them help and advice. Don't ever forget the people who helped. They will one day mean more than anything money could buy. Success isn't having everything without no one, it is having something with someone. That "something" is happiness. If happiness is really and truly there, everything you could ever dream is right there, don't close your eyes to what is right in front of you.
So as this chapter of life comes to a close, don't forget the people who matter, and if they matter enough, don't say goodbye... because goodbye means going away... and going away means forgetting... and if I thought for one second that I would forget all who made a difference in my life, I would never leave.

Never in a Million

   The thought never occurred to me as odd, it was simply the right thing to do. Ironic as it may be that I, Daniel Jameson Mackamay, would consent to this. I must have been out of my mind. She would never dream of going on a date with me. She was her, and I was... well me. She had him and would never leave him... perhaps I could just get her to go along with one simple night out. We had been friends for a while but maybe friends wasn't enough anymore. I know that I wanted more than for her to call me her 'friend'. She was amazing. She was everything a guy could ask for. She was her....She was Kat.  *                            *                            *                           *                         ...

Summer At Last

The cool breeze wafted into my bedroom through the open window.  Birds chirped and fluttered through the air and the crisp, clean morning air made my bed chamber into a fairy tale scene.  My eyes slowly opened, taking in the light from the sun that seemed so lost.  Months had gone by when the sun was no where to be seen, but today it was there like a beacon to the world.  My mind raced as it took in the sounds and smells of the morning.  Another smell came floating into my room but not through my window.  My bedroom door hung ajar and through the small opening came the smell of pancakes and eggs, hash browns and bacon!!  A perfect morning!  I throw the covers off my bed, slide my feet into a pair of slippers and skip down the stairs.  Mother is standing in her PJ's at the stove, bacon sizzling away.  Pancakes are piled high on the table next to a large plate of scrambled eggs.  My father is sitting at the table buttering a slice of...
