Premium Member Stand Your Ground, Don’t Get Pushed Around
If a cop stops you and says, "Show me your ID," Know your rights before you agree. They can’t demand it just on suspicion, There must be a crime, a law must be broken. No crime? No reason? Then stand your ground, Don't allow yourself to get pushed around. If they threaten you with arrest, if you don’t...

Premium Member At Least One Giant Ground Sloth Is Alive Again
I found it curled in the shadow of what used to be a hospital. A slow hunch of fur, the color of old bark—like the forest had tried to grow itself a question. It didn’t look surprised to see me. Just blinked, as if measuring whether I was worth the glance. I sat cross-legged beside it, tore foil from a protein bar— offered the whole...

When you’ve been subjected to violence, scars and bruises tell. When you’ve been subjected to violence the mind doesn’t trust people that well. When you’ve been subjected to cruelty the scars don’t necessarily show. When you’ve been subjected to cruelty the internal bruises can grow. Finding ways to deal with… why! Why do I react like that?

View From the Ground
The sky, a distant painted masterpiece, Unfurling blues where airy currents cease. From here, the giants loom, their towers high, Their peaks like needles pricking at the sky. The hurried feet, a river at my shoe, Each face a story rushing to pursue A hidden purpose, a determined stride, While I observe where shadows softly hide. The cracks in pavement intricate and deep, Hold...

Premium Member Higher Ground
"Going to keep on trying 'til I reach my highest ground." ~ Stevie Wonder Once, when I was twelve, I turned a knob on a plastic box and heard the magic it unlocked. Infectious rhythm - what was once still life began to move - it was in that irresistible groove. Yes, I still remember when I first heard Stevie Wonder...
