Half-Life

Time, time, time, never enough or too much, it speeds by in a flash of numbers and gets lost all in itself, as well as to everyone else. There was never, and will never, be enough to go around; this is a fast paced society, people needed results and they needed them then and now. High demand, high expectations, and high outcomes, it was always too high, so high, it was always nearly out of reach. Bobby Singer felt as if he was rushed more than he would dare admit, he may have been older but he…

One of the benefits is connecting long-lost friends. A user can do a search for old friends from childhood or whenever and reconnect with them. If they live in the same area they could potentially get together and catch up. Another connection Facebook has is finding family members. Not just distant relatives but there have been cases where Amber Alerts were put on via Facebook and were successful.

Mr. Joyfellow felt 73.674 years old exactly to the third decimal place. Although he sometimes hated this number to the nearest tenth, today he hated it down to the thousandth, and would have even if the thousandth's place were zero. Disgusted by the necessary cliché of waking, he shuffled off to the kitchen as his stomach requested of him (rather impolitely, he thought). He had once been a man of regularity to the point of eccentricity, but that was less a trait of himself than of the past, and…

'll go.” In my life reading has allowed me to escape the world around me and learn and understand not only myself but also the world and the purpose of life as a whole. By the time I was in 6th grade I had many books, but I also wanted to fit in. One day I thought it would be a good idea to sell all my books so I could go shopping for new cloths to conform. This one moment has formed and altered me as a reader forever. Reading and our experiences with books give us new meaning to life. In…

you ever knew. Three years ago my mom's brother was diagnosed with Stage 4 colon cancer. That changed our whole family. He was 39 years old and given a death sentence. Seeing your mom cry every single day changes you. It was the hardest year and a half for our entire family. We prayed and prayed but it just wasn’t enough. We knew the end was coming but there was no way we could be prepared for something so deplorable. Two years must have been too much to ask for, because he didn’t even last that…

Death is inevitable. Every life has a story, and in most cases, the conclusion is death. Some special people live a life where their story continues to be told and in a way they continue to live on while dead. When you die you always leave something behind. Some people leave a loved one, most people leave family, and everyone leaves a trail. There are many different ways death occurs. An individual could die of old age, naturally in their sleep, in a traumatic accident, suicide, disease,…
