Once Upon A Time

Once Upon a Time... those words seem to start some of the most exciting tales that we ever heard in our lives.

You can think of about a hundred tales that people can tell you and help you love and learn though the years... I like to think of our lives as one complex story that allows us to comprehend the troubles around us. However we see the world seems to put less and less into the power of a good story for a more interactive tale like a video game or a web game where we can role play our favorite characters in our favorite universes... or we plug our lives into a television and then wait for things to happen... which they never do.

There is magic that comes from using the spoken word to express your innermost feelings... it makes us dream and hope and grow more and more and more. The more articulate the more you learn about yourself and how you interact with the world around you.

I used to be a writer. ONce I thought that writing was a talent, but then I realized that I needed to write more to become a writer instead of waiting around for inspiration to strike me on the head. Inspiration is not something that makes you have concussions... it is something that you have to train yourself to recognize, like a good hunter can recognize the signs of an animal was around.

This is me writing again. If you enjoy it, thanks... if you have improvements let me know. I am going to write 1000 words a day for the next month to see what happens.
