Ryan Jackson's Blog
I live in Hertfordshire England, I'm 32 years of age. Originally I was born and was raised in London until the age of 21 when I moved to Hertfordshire's countryside.
I am a strict vegetarian, for reasons that our species has made me. I like reading/ writing poetry/ sports (football/baseball/hockey) spending time with the people I love and my animals.
I have 3 dogs (2 male Labradors, 1 female rottweiler) And now a gorgeous cat, her name is Sadie, They are my heart! I adore and love all creatures and I will do anything to help and save animals in need/neglected/cruelty towards. I'm also a proud member of PETA/WSPA/ANIMAL PROTECTOR/ANIMAL AID/NOAH.
This quote nails it for me about my beliefs- "As long as there are slaughterhouses there will be battlefields." -- Leo Tolstoy.
I have always loved writing poetry growing up. When ever I was to write out birthday cards/Christmas cards my family would always comment on how much thought and depth I would put in it to express my words. With there support the older I got the more I started writing and noticing how much I enjoyed poetry. My girlfriend bought me my first poetry writing pad. From that moment I writ so much which filled the pad within the month, I now have 4 more new poetry writing pads to challenge my mind.
I like to write creative scenarios that I haven't had experienced from, then build from there. Usually, I begin writing with nothing in mind, I would then write a line with any thought that comes to me, from there my mind excelurates fast with ideas and madness thinking that I didn't think was in me. Little voice screaming to be recongnized on paper by the markings of broken wooden leds. There has been a lot of poems that I have written that are from my own experience, or something that's touched my heart and I felt the need to share it with this world. These poems are the most dearest to me. I like to try and put out expressive points in my poetry that will open up the reader's eyes, or touch their very soul. I will continue to write, I feel it helps the mind for mentality and also soothes the soul.
Peace with you.......
