The Northern 📍

  Have We Been Here Before?      Seriously. Think about it. Is this truly our first time around this blistering star on this rocky planet? Have we ever set foot in the place once before?      I don’t have the answer. Honestly, I don’t even know if I wish that I did. All I ask is- what do you think?      If I’ve learned one thing, here on my short trip in this reality- it’s that I truly do know nothing. Absolutely nothing, at all. Don’t even ask me what colour the sky is anymore because honestly, I couldn’t tell you. Everything we have ever been taught or think we know, is a lie. Seriously, everything. It’s like waking up one day to have your eyes removed, yet all of a sudden you can see in sound waves. Nothing make any sense.      I ask this question because dreams tend to feel real. Dreams make me question what is really going on here, in the first place. I know, some people simply dismiss dreams as nothing more than your...

  Hello Darkness, my Old Friend.      Today is the day I dread the most. The day I do not enjoy anymore. Funny, when I was younger, today was all the hype in the world. Now? It’s a constant reminder of just how far I’ve fallen.      Nightmares continue to haunt me, as I struggle with this battle. I dreamt of being surrounded by family last night, all gathered to celebrate life. My 3 day old nephew was there as well, fresh out the womb. He didn’t look like much of a child, to be honest. His face and eyes seemed more like they were extraterrestrial than anything else. Perhaps all newborns look like that. Or, perhaps I was dreaming. Go figure, eh?      Overall, being surrounded should have been a cause for celebration. Instead? I was stricken with grief. Stricken with the financial bear of reality, haunting me even within my dreams. Amazing, how the chains we are given in this realm, follow us onto the next. How the mind is able to conjure ...

     If you had 24 hours to live, what would you do?      Pretty simple question, really. Who hasn’t been asked this at least once in their lifetime? Simple question, yet complicated answer. 24 hours can really fly by in the blink of an eye. Regardless, the question remains- what would you do? Would you party into oblivion, doing all the drugs and alcohol you could get your hands on before the dreaded final hour arrives? Would you go out with a bang, intoxicated and abbreviated beyond recognition? Or would you take risks like never before- go sky-diving, climb mountains, swim with sharks? Would you go to the casino, and bet it all on red? Or would you hit the race track, and spend your final hours betting on horses to get your thrills? Or would you self-implode to the knowledge that you were going to die in 24 hours, and take your own life instead? Would you spend time with your family and loved ones? Would you throw a party or BBQ and simply enjoy your rem...
