Nature's Steps

Living life as we know it.

Nature's Steps
Infinitor in life


Existence is a question that is unknowledgeable to life;

It turns and erupts in science, religion, romanticism,

It rises and falls in waves and volcanic eruptions,

In Frankenstein and combines myths of truth with perception

It is truth and it is false.


A pure truth made within many forms,

The Sacrificial lamb drinks the blood of new beginnings,

One is God in his own perceptive image,

Power, Currency, Sexual Frustration

Drives the key that turns in the ignition.


Eggs, hams, coffee, toast

A cup of cells that bind the system

Lists made to set things right

The idle hands that play the devil’s symphony

Heaven or hell bequeaths harmony and terror.


Lies, deceit, spiritual virtues

A key to the path one ends

Masks in public, chaos behind doors,

Church gatherings to surface repent and sly away the harm,

Hoping to strive for the one day that draws near.


White, Black, Yellow, Brown

Flags whip colors to shake in air,

Radios screech befallen prayers

Stadiums center the cries of hopelessness,

Terror threats escape breaths of news reporters.


Sing, Cry, Scream, Shout

A rhythm of feet to stomp the stage,

End the misery with glory

Notes clatter in unison with endless plots,

Of conflicted agony to end in happy synchrony.


Confess, Bless, Wish

The genie is smoked glass that won’t come,

Hes and Shes deliver their own course,

Endless success, money in theft,

Joys in misery that conflicts all.


Stories, morals, promises

Yield upon a youngster’s education,

Within a dream that didn’t suffice

A parent who shattered their last breath

In a moment that collapsed;

In the lenses of a captured picture.


Discover, Change, Fall

Scope the instrument of one’s brain,

Invent the musical of a dancer’s feet

Old knowing turns to dust,

Fall through cracks that made angels.


Nothing, Blank, Death

A myth of rumors to birth the young.

A name on one’s lip’s

An invention of hopeless and success,

The end to the misery one had swept.

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.
