My life in Quotes

When I was very young, after I came back to the Harkes, I would hit and pinch my Mom. I can imagine it being rough on her having a little boy that doesn't understand his pain and how to even express it properly. Dad said that she prayed ceaselessly for me to have peace inside. I have had a whole life of internal strife and sleepless nights of emotional pain. Mom was there for me through a lot of it.  It's weird having Mom gone. It's when they moved to Florida that our relationship flourished. I always found it odd and annoying at times when Mom left 3 min voicemails but I miss that now. I wish I had a recording of her voice telling me that she loves me. I have, I believe every card that Mom had sent to me from 2013 until she couldn't send out cards anymore. I have birthday cards, Christmas, Valentine's Day, Easter, just because she was thinking about me, and handwritten letters.

When she passed away after Christmas it was horrible for me. I cried myself to sleep and woke up in the middle of the night to feel her gone and I cried myself to sleep again. I didn't think I was going to get to go to her funeral because of a lack of money. Some...

B.O.B has a song titled Bombs Away featuring Morgan Freeman, whom is the narrator of this masterpiece. I usually use quotes to set the ground work for the piece. So this will do perfectly: "As the war between light and darkness continues Heroes and villains become harder to identify Kindred spirits separated at birth Fighting for their place in time to be solidified The clock ticks faster and faster While time runs a marathon in this Babylon But see, the end is only the beginning The beginning of the calm before the storm" So my Christmas Epiphany starts here with this war, which war? The war that has plagued the lives of families in the USA since big box stores dictated when Christmas would start. Now there are other parties - Amazon and Cyber week. The way I look at it with all these companies closing and stores eating the dirt, Amazon is the retail industry savior. If they win this war between them and all big box stores, Christmas might go back to being a f...
