wondered from all over the world to join together to live as neighbors in one special community. My friends and I claim our space in the Dreamville neighborhood laying our tents, chairs, and bags in four corners spaced far apart from each other, to create a square of land for ourselves to camp on. Since the extra space we had allowed us more room for relaxing and activities, my friends and I developed unforgettable friendships with our neighbors surrounding our space. Later, the day begins to…

attainable in life. For Oedipus, it is especially tangible, as there is a marked distinction before and after that knowledge is gained.

Settling upon the ground and observing the bleak landscape of no man’s land, I could see a multitude of other Reapers going about their work like silent shades amongst the dead and dying in the trenches. Scenes painted by wars such as this one made busy work days for the likes of we haunted few, perhaps…

staircase that coiled down beyond the star 's dying light. From the faded darkness came the cry of a tormented soul. It was his soul, his true self. He sold it for the spoils of the Underworld. And now he wanted it back. He bought a white rose, the Celestial, with his last coin.

a Christian in 1520. This work expressed the heart and soul of Luther’s treatise on Christian liberty in which he sets forth the essence of Christian faith and life.
