The Silent Clock Master

Why are we as people always trying to kill time when time is all we have? We won't live forever. Our heart beats are finite. Any moment could be our last. Why do we waste our precious seconds in front of a screen that shows us images of the way we should be living? Where is our sense of urgency? Is it the condition of youthfulness that deceives us with a false sense of immortality? Is this why we leave the most important things on our minds an in our hearts for the next day, or the day after that? What would happen if we suddenly heard the silent clock of our lives begin to tick out loud? Why would we do? Are we the masters of our own fate or the robots of other faceless individuals that we sacrifice our lives, health, and happiness to in our belief that we can make a profit and ease the circumstances of our own mundane lives? What's really important? When will the silent clock master make himself heard?

Examining the green painted head of the arrow thoughtfully the assassin tapped the tip until it punctured his onyx colored glove.   A drop of crimson escaped the fresh gash and mixed with the forest green of the arrowhead.   Reaching down to pick Oliver’s discarded bow the assassin took a step back, turned, nocked the arrow and drew the bow string back to his cheek. “Don’t do it,” Oliver said watching his captor take careful aim in his direction. The assassin’s grip on the bow string loosened.   With an echoing twang the bow string jumped back into rest position as the arrow sped out from the bow toward Oliver. “Aaaaarh!” Oliver screamed as the arrow pierced his left shoulder at the joint connecting his arm to his torso.   A blaze of searing

The Soundtracks to My Life

I realized today how big a part music plays in my life. The world was so mundane. I mean straight boring today. The sounds of my life really define my moods and my actions everyday. I forgot my headphone in the morning and the rest of the day was just pure madness. It doesn't make today's suck go away completely but my music does complete me. Thank you to all my favourite artists and thank you to God for the gifts of hearing and music.

The Rise of Skywalker Spoiler Review/ The State of Star Wars

*DISCLAIMER* : This article is an opinion piece by one writer. It is in no way, shape or form a definitive guide to Star Wars Saga, the people involved in its making or it’s fan base as a whole. It is strictly the ‘certain point of view’ of one writer. Take it as you will. *DISCLAIMER #2* : Spoilers ahead.                  Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker is meant to be the culmination of a 42-year space opera that dates its inception back to the year 1977. The series creator, George Lucas, always envisioned his movies as a family drama whose impact echoes through the generations and across the stars. Not only has this come to pass in the three trilogies that make up the Skywalker Saga, but life has echoed art in that the movies have been passed down and impacted generations of fans around the world. Marketed as “the end of the Skywalker Saga,” this film was bound to be divisive from the start. Coming off the heels of the previous installment, The Last Jed
