Author’s Message

Everyone has a unique story. Something that only they can tell and no one else. The ability of life to create each and every person so differently is how the greatest of changes are made to the world. In a challenging time, there are few outlets of safety left for us. Just like how we all are made differently, this outlet we seek to discover is just as unique. One person’s outlet is always different from another’s. Some seek to climb mountains or run into the open arms of nature and others find solace in improving their mental abilities through reading and studying. No matter the outlet present to us, it is an outlet we must never take for granted. It is an escape from the things that seek to bring us down when we do not yet know how to conquer them. Oftentimes, this outlet will put us back into the mindset we need to possess in order to truly take down each of life’s challenges for us. 

My outlet is poetry

I enjoy more than anything to write a story or put my mind in a mode to write an entire novel within the span of a year, however, when I find myself in the darkest depths of negative thoughts, it is poetry that is always my saving grace. I find that I always have time to spin together an entire story in one line or leave no meaning at all. From the moment I discovered the connection with the pencil in my hand meant so much more than fractions and decimals, I was determined to create a path for myself that would never allow me to look down upon who I was. Now it is customary for whoever decides not to follow the flock of sheep to struggle and feel like they are alone in the world. I have moments like this a lot and I know that until I have proven to the world, I will continue to have such moments. However, it’s these moments that make me a stronger individual once they are over. Although I may question why I was born with the mind that I have, I know that in the end, it makes me who I am. There will always be those who disapprove
