A poem that let's you feel a sense of total peace

Bringing You Into My Place of Peace
Isaac Ray

Go. Go to the small house that sits quietly in the midst of darkness

Shaded by trees that hide it from the glory of the sun

Inside you’ll find your first love waiting to give you many different worlds to escape to

Some familiar, some never explored

Go deep and get lost in these worlds of love and strength

I promise that he, they, will never find you here

Encrusted in the stone walls will be parables

Telling you things you do, don’t, already know

And when you’ve found enough of yourself

He’ll be waiting.


Come. Come out of the house and walk the path down to the beach

Before the sun drowns in the mirroring sea

Gaze at the endless sea that floats above

Making sense of the ever-changing smoke that glides on the surface

Hurry down the golden path

He’s there waiting for you.


As the wind effortlessly carries sprinkles of water

To kiss your skin

Embrace Him and pull Him in

You’ll only have forever to tell Him everything

He lays you down and you give Him the light of your life

Together you watch it play, all night under the stars

You fall asleep peacefully still in His arms

He wakes you to angels singing

With a sound of purity and gentleness

You look over to Him

Your soul dances with the fire in His eyes

As everything around you..

The birds harmonizing, the water roaring, the wind breathing

Seems to get more and more… quiet

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
