An old man told his grandson, "There is a fight between two wolves inside of us. One is bad-- it is lust, pried, and lies. The other is good-- love, caring and humility." The boy thought for a moment and asked, "Which one wins?" "The one you feed."

I wrote this slam poem to the people at school who bully people and all the victims out there to let them know that I hear your voice and I understand and that I won't keep quiet.

The universe was exploding, each particle away from the next, hurtling us into dark and lonely space, eternally tearing us away from each other--child out of the womb, friend away from friend, moving from each other, each through his own pathway toward the goal-box of solitary death

&ldquo;Every day, think as you wake up, today I am fortunate to be alive, I have a precious human life, I am not going to waste it. I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart out to others; to achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all beings. I am going to have kind thoughts towards others, I am not going to get angry or think badly about others. I am going to benefit others as much as I can.&rdquo;<br /> <br /> <br /> ― Dalai Lama XIV

&ldquo;I will write peace on your wings and you will fly all over the world&rdquo;<br /> <br /> I don&#039;t give a da*m what other people think. It&#039;s entirely their own business. I&#039;m not writing to please other people,i&#039;m writing because it&#039;s the only thing that keeps me sane.
