Ending Post

" From now to beyond,

  things are a blur.

 Our future is not made, 

 but only of wonder."

     -Jared Lee Brannon

This summer is not a break from learning. Keep your minds open and don't do anything stupid.                                                   You're a human, not a statistic.

Stop the Sorrow

"You sit there alone in silence,
Wondering where's the home with no violence.
Time can only tell,
To stop your living hell.

This isn't a nightmare,
I know that life's not always fair.
The world will build you up then tear you down,
Burning all your bridges to the ground.

In the end all you have is purity,
A life with no insanity.
But deep down we are all insane,
Looking for all this fame.

But nobody can be better than you,
Only more experienced, that is true.
So stop your crying and sorrow,
There are better things on their way tomorrow"


                                           -Jared Lee Brannon

Tablet

Why do we have these tablets? What is the point of this? All it is going to be is another distraction. More and more kids grades are going to drop and many teachers are not going to allow these devices in their classes. So again, what is the point of receiving these tablets?

Beneath Your Noses

"Troubled and worried,
Everything is hurried.
Take time to smell the roses,
See what is beneath your noses.

There's more out there,
Just give a little care.
Take your time,
Just clear your mind."

        -Jared Lee Brannon

Interdependent

We live in a world where one thing has an effect on multiple other things. An example I when you buy a car. You may like it, but does it use to much gas and pollute the earth. Do you spend more money on gas, and now you can't buy the groceries you weren't able to buy before. Now that store is losing money. Is your car not too safe so now you risk lives of others around you. And where did you buy that car? Did you choose it over another company? Now that other company is losing money. Did you go for the cheaper car? Now the company isn't getting much money because you chose the cheaper car. But, there are benefits. You're buy more gas which gives thy company more money. You bought your car from a dealership and now they have money. You not going to the grocery store leaves an open space which allows someone else to buy from that store. Everything you do effects everything and everyone around you. Interdependent.

On the Rise

" On the rise,
There are no lies.
One: speak the truth,
Two: stay on the move.

Things get easier,
People get lazier.
Just keep on going,
There is no knowing.

The sky's the limit,
Be within it.
Shoot to the moon,
You'll be there soon."

       -Jared Lee Brannon

No Limits

We live in a world where we strive to be the best, but towards things we do not love. We are told what to do to live a life that others want for us. Screw that. Do what you want and exceed the expectations of what others have for us. As long as you are doing what you love, there are no limits.

                                                              -Jared Lee Brannon

Pull Through It

"When everyone says give up,

You have to stand up and fight.

Do anything you can to save your life,

Show them that this isn't right.

We live in a world that says you can't

But there are footprints on the moon.

There's so much you can do in this world,

And the reward for it comes soon.

No matter how big or small,

You must stand above it all.

Cannot back down, can't give in,

Giving up is number one deadly sin.

Be proud, be confident,

We are human,we get bent.

But we never get broken,

The beast inside has been woken.

We must work as one,

Take the power from the sun.

Show them that you can do it,

All you have to do is pull though it."

            -Jared Lee Brannon

Love

"Love corrupts us of reality."
           -Jared Lee Brannon

Lies and Greed

"We live in a world of lies and greed,
We steal to get the things we need.
 Things aren't earned they're given,
This life really ain't worth livin'.

Our hard work traded for nothing,
Yet we all suspected something.
Now you ask why we do what we do,
It's to make this world become more true."

                               -Jared Lee Brannon

Our Fate

"Why do we do the things we do,
They never really matter we just are a few.
We aren't much on this earth,
Given our lives from our birth.

As soon as we are born our fates are made,
I may not know much as these words are laid.
We are destined to do one thing in life,
That's why things end with a knife."

                            -Jared Lee Brannon

Hope and Pray

"Why give up on the things you love,
 In hopes for a gift above.
 Heaven isn't something that you live for,
 You just have to pray more.

 Pray to God for a better life,
 Hope it doesn't feel like a knife.
 Hope he doesn't stab you in the back,
But maybe there are things you lack.

God is doing the best he can,
But he is just a man.
You have to learn to help yourself,
Hope and pray for better health."

               -Jared Lee Brannon

Perfection

"We don't crave for perfection, we crave for an easier way to live."
                                         -Jared Lee Brannon
