A World

Imagine we lived in a world

where we were blind to color

color of skin, color of life, color of love

Our eyes and minds were blind to bias

and our hearts were free to explore.


Imagine we lived in a world

where children weren't hungry

mothers weren't restless

and fathers stayed.


Imagine we lived in a world

where worth wasn't based upon

the amount likes, retweets,

or copy & pastes

we received in order to

feel relevant in this race

Imagine we lived in a world

where politics wasn't a game

but a movement used

to make a change

that bettered society

instead of perpetuating misogyny.


Imagine we lived in a world

where nuclear warfare

wasn't a reality

but humility and kindness

was the basis for morality

Imagine we lived in a world

where faith wasn't questioned

but used to heal the bruise

of wounded soldiers and the

abused.


Imagine we lived in a world

where women's bodies were a temple

and not a temptation

to degrade, demoralize, and objectify

because well "I'm a guy"

and its "aight".

Imagine we lived in a world

where disability wasn't

a reason for humility

but celebrated for

its unique ability

to brighten a room

instead of focus on gloom

because a grateful heart

is better than hateful art.


Imagine a world where

cities upon cities

weren't stricken with poverty

and people didn't rely on armed robbery

to provide for their starving

families who lived

out of Camrys

but the wealthy

could walk out of their

Bentleys and learn to serve

like our God, Jesus

instructed us to in His Word.


Imagine this world and create it.

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.
