Four bros

This is a tale of four unlikely brothers

On an unlikely journey, separated from mothers,

To pisa, led by the architect, followed by a cook,

Then by a farmer and one who writes horror books.

The architect led his group, to design a grand tower,

However they left in a haste at an unnatural hour.

When the rays of the sun crept upon the end of twilight

The architect was due in Pisa in the latter half of two nights

They scurried and hampered the four brothers did

As they gathered their tools of profession, amid

The confusion, they left in a hurry

To the the alps they decided, it was all so blurry

It was the midst of winter, the ice was blowin

The writer’s ink solid, the farmer’s hoes frozen

They arrived at the alps just as a blizzard hit

The four thought to themselves “holy crud”

Traversing the snow, 16 stone in weight

Their arms weary, their stomachs ached
Trapped in this seemingly endless storm

Then before them an aura formed

They left the cold guided by the light

Escaping the blizzard with Pisa in sight

However, they came upon a crossroads and was stopped by a strange man

With horns on his head, pitchfork in hand

The man was dressed clean and quite the charmer

And out of the four of them he spoke to the farmer

“In life, what is it that you seek most?”

The farmer then explained to their strange host,

“I wish of endless land, with endless crop”

“I wish that my rice yields would never stop”

“But having such land would hurt so many,

Having such a monopoly would force lots to have not one penny”

“They remain poor, whilst i become rich, so i do not care,

Just give me my land, don’t be a square.”

“I do your bidding, your wish is my command.”

And so the farmer left his brothers on a path to claim his land

After the farmer left, The man turned to the cook,

“What do you desire?” Said the horned man with a humbling look

I want to be known for things that I am not

I want to create spicy food to trick those who do not like it hot

In a moments notice, the devil did not stall

He granted the cook the spiciest of meatball

Like his brother, the cook left on the path

To cook for unsuspecting customers with the meatball’s wrath

And then there were two, the architect and scribe

The horned man then asked the latter the same bribe

“I wish of a book of horror so frightening it writes itself,

I want it to be sold by the millions, right off the shelf.”

“Of course, Of course, your wish is to come true,

None will write better horrors than you.”

Like the two before him the writer left to write his dialect,

Which left the horned man alone with the architect.

The horned man asked “What do you desire, fame? Fortune? Power?”

The architect did not trust the man and said “I just wish to build my tower”

“I am certain in myself and what i do on my own,

I do not require a stranger and his even stranger loans.”

The horned man hesitated and looked at him with disdain

He tried to argue, but all in vain.

The architect, now alone, completes his quest to build his tower

Right before his time is due, right before the darkest hour.

Epilogue

“So what happened to your brothers” said the architect's friend

The architect said “ They went down the path of unrighteous men.”

“My brother the farmer’s land was devoured by ice,

My brother the cook passed away by eating his meatball’s spice.”

“And what of your brother the scribe?” The question remained.

“Why his stories were so scary, they drove him insane.”

“Im sorry for your losses” As the friend left the architect with his ale,

Alone the architect sat, and reminensced his fallen brothers, Devon Sam and Hale.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
