He's all of just 8 years old, but speaks with thoughts and words of someone much older. As we are driving along in the car he is discussing the movie we just saw. He is vibrant and energetic. Then, as he is describing a part in the movie, he says "You know (OOOOO) would have liked that one part, you know if he loved us like he use to love us, I would tell him him about it, and we would laugh together."
Then silence. Vibrant, energetic stops in a slit second.

Potential Energy
He opens the door, "Hey what's going on?"
"Hi, not much, got an A on my test!", I reply.
His office has a welcoming feel to it,
like home, comfortable.
A place for understanding.
I slip off my sandals and sit cross legged
in a large overstuffed couch,which engulfs
my whole being.
"Things must be going well,
there seems to be a consistency
in your attitude!" he exclaims as he sits down.
Smiling, I say "You know, I just want to tell you
how much I appreciate how you've guided me through
a difficult time in my life."
He leans forward and says, "We all struggle
with things in our lives. Some keep it to themselves, and others like yourself, have the ability to vocalize,
communicate, openly express what's on their mind.
When you come upon something challenging in your life,
you put it in your hand, turn it over, question it and
want to know all there is to know about it."
I nod my head and smile as he dispenses
his perception of me.
He continued, "You are authentic and open, and those
who are not, have difficulty with this."
"Tell me about it!" I exclaim.
He laughs, leans back in his chair and runs his hand through his hair.
"You know, fundamentally we're all a bunch of nut cases,
so next time you begin to judge or analyze someone,
try to remember that!"
Laughing,I slip on my sandals and stand up.
"You've seen me during my best and worst times haven't ya!" I exclaim.
and before I could say another word, he replied,
"Yeah, and your harmless!"
I just shake my head and laugh.
"Later genius" he says smiling.

Round Two
Well I came out swinging in Round 2!
Physics is not going to kick my ass!
I got the scores from my next test and I got a 90%!
The neighbor asked me when I sleep
because the light is always on.
I told him sleep was over rated
and there would be plenty of time for that,
in my many years ahead.
I have learned that an important thing for me
is my power of choice..my option to feel how I chose to feel,
do whatever I choose to do
and be whomever I choose to be.
Life lives on the tip of my tongue.
Things go well because I say so.
Unfortunately,
the opposite is also true.

Knock Out Punch
Sorry for the many blank spots lately.
I'm taking a Physics class that is trying to kick my ass.
You notice I said trying?
Test#1 kicked my ass, but Test#2 I put the gloves on and came out fighting.
After studying until 4am every morn.
(There's your answer to what I'm doing up late every night)
I got an A.
Right now, in my mind-the touchdown celebration dance.
You know what I'm talking about!
Another test tomorrow, fall asleep with book in my hands tonight.
It's worth it, trust me.
