It’s Christmas. Well, Christmas season, at least. I should be happy right now. After all, the feelgood vibes of the holiday season only come once a year. Unfortunately, in spite of my strongest efforts, I’m not. If I go to the room I grew up in, exit the door, walk slightly to the left, turn … More For Her

If there’s one pastime that my generation needs to do more of, its reading (at least in my humble opinion). I remember as a kid, before the smartphone age, I would stay up hours upon hours at night after my bedtime with a little light underneath my covers so I could finish the chapter I … More Books!

My mother always told me that no one should be written off. She ALWAYS gave people the benefit of the doubt (sometimes too much so). This “soft” demeanor definitely rubbed off on me, and certainly applies to how I view the President. Surely he had the right intentions, right? I mean no one would want … More A Presidential Speech

If you’ve read any of my posts before, you’ll know that I think a lot about the world and how it could be improved. Its important for us to understand that any humanly-created system or construct can always be amended or changed, and that there will likely never be a perfect Utopian solution.

That got me thinking, and I wonder if they’re onto something. Considering today’s social climate where almost everywhere we turn there’s news of another … More Privileged Gun Permit

Alright. This is a delicate topic, and I generally try my best not to offend people. But at a certain point, things start to get a bit out of hand. As we see all the entertaining headlines on our news feeds and kill time sifting through the hilarity of the comments section, I can’t help … More Political Correctness & Tolerance

I’ve talked to a lot of people since this writing thing began that have told me they would be interested in writing themselves, but they (insert obstacle here). Whether its time constraint, lack of confidence in their writing skills, or what have you…it sees many people would like to write, but for some reason convince … More Writing and its Benefits

This is probably going to sound ridiculous to a lot of you, so prepare yourself. But stay with me here. Wouldn’t it be cool to start an experimental city? A place where everyone contributed in a meaningful way, without the need for money or other useless things? It could be separated agriculturally, commercially, and so … More Experimental City

“Alright folks, let’s get it together.” Stepping out of his makeshift office that NASA had converted from a vacant conference room, President O’Hare lifts the stack of documents that need to make the trip with him. All high-level US officials were relocating from NASA headquarters to the Sand Hills of Nebraska, where one of the … More C2 – Chapter 2
