Poem I just wrote

You can own all the material possessions in the world
Do they make you happy
Does money make you happy
Do things make you happy
What makes you happy
For me it is the small things
My kids laughing
My kids making me drawings
Sunrises
Sunsets
All the seasons
Rain
Storms
Smell of flowers
Birds chirping
Dipping my toes in the sand
Swimming in the lake
Sound of crickets on a summer day
Full moons
Stars shining
Time with family
Time with friends
Laughing with kids
Being silly with kids
Laughing with family
Laughing with friends
Chasing lightening bugs
Playing in the mud
Long baths
Hugs
Kisses
Love letters
Seeing loved ones smile
Hearing I love you
Things that make the world go round
Possessions don't last
Life fades
Memories stay
Hold on to today
Hold your loved ones close
Share memories with everyone you touch
Share stories
That's how we will be remembered
We won't be remembered by what we have but how we
touch the hearts of those we encounter and those we love
(Just wrote this tonight.)

Stop giving the negative people attention

 Stop giving the negative people of the world so much attention.  Stop making negative people so famous for negative stuff. It's disgusting that the people who are doing horrible things are being given that attention. We as people see it in people's real lives and social media. Social media is where we need to start drawing the line. If we would take that attention away and ignored the bad behavior maybe just maybe they would see that it isn't good. People have turned negative into this is a social normal. It is not a social normal. Stop feeding the negative and toxic behavior. Stop saying it's normal.  I'd like to see more of you sharing people who are trying to succeed in life, build each other up, helping one another with small business or businesses, spreading love and light, helping people who are less fortunate, listening to others, being there for people who have depression, anxiety, PTSD,and much more.  So many could be successful if everyone supports everyo

Cursed House

  It's a dark stormy night this Halloween night. The clouds  are ominous.  You can feel the energy from the storm. 5 friends and me are staying in an abandoned house deep in the Bayou of Louisiana.  I had picked the place. My friends and I love spooky things. This year we are hoping for a good scare because last year we went to a cemetary and it was just a bunch of teenagers messing with us. We get to the abandoned house before it starts storming.  There is a fireplace in the living room and we light a fire to stay warm and cozy.  "Ari what is the plan?" my boyfriend asks. "I thought we would eat and check the house out after." My friends and I make sandwiches. We eat in the living room. While we are eating we hear kids laughing. We get up to see where it is coming from and find nothing.  It is  a big house you can get lost in because the house is made like a maze. "This house is strange," Joe says. "Did you know  it was made like a maze?&quo
