What’s in a Name?

I don’t think I would willing change my name, but if I had to, I have a couple in mind. One name I’d consider is Zelda. If you don’t know by now, I’m a huge Legend of Zelda fan. Princess Zelda is my all time favorite character. The name also means “woman warrior,” and youContinue reading “What’s in a Name?”

Blog Blah

I have to be honest. If anyone has been following my website for a while, you might have noticed that I always call these little writings of mine as “webposts.” And, yes, I do see the little red squiggly line saying it’s not word every time I type it out. I recently did a webpostContinue reading “Blog Blah”

Write for Hope

I would like my website to bring a little bit of hope. When people come to read it, I hope they find inspiration through my trials or poems they can relate to when things are downtrodden. I’d like to offer quirky stories or suggestions, prompt thoughtfulness, or offer an insight into a job a lotContinue reading “Write for Hope”

Brewing Fear

Scratch your knuckle on a rusted nail and suddenly, you’re going to die.Never go out in the thick or the night or else you may not survive. Don’t ever trust other cars on the road. You’ll end up in a wreck. Don’t tell your secrets to someone you know or they’ll stab you in theContinue reading “Brewing Fear”

Big Four Double Zero

October 14th of 2020 was when I started this website. I’ll reach four years of posting twice a week this October. That’s so huge for me to think about. I’ve written two webposts every week for four years, and you’re probably wondering why I’m bringing this up on July 31st instead of celebrating it inContinue reading “Big Four Double Zero”

Make a Change

What would you change about modern society? If there was anything I’d change about modern day society, it would be how people treat each other. I would change things so people would be kinder. Instead of acting on emotions, act on compassion and be more considerate of others instead of focused on our own goals.Continue reading “Make a Change”

Hope in the Pitch

I keep having to take deep breaths. The butterflies in my stomach won’t go away. The great oak doors of the Hall are dead ahead and I have to catch my own feet to keep from running inside. With another deep breath, I almost laugh as I jump through the threshold into the stone hall.Continue reading “Hope in the Pitch”

Looking for Hope

You arrive with butterflies in your stomach. It’s late. You hope you’re in the right place, but the event is still a couple days and you see no signs of it as you pull in. The chalet has you confuzzeled. You look for a tall and wide building, a modern day hotel, but the chaletContinue reading “Looking for Hope”

For the Sake of the Sequel

Last week, I indulged in a story that didn’t turn out how I expected. I dare say, I was almost disappointed, but I understand why they ended it the way that they did. The story was Disney’s Descendants; The Rise of Red. It’s not the first Descendants movie, but it’s one where you can getContinue reading “For the Sake of the Sequel”
