Deep Into the Darkness

"Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before."
-Edgar Allan Poe

I chose to share this quote from one of my favorite macabre authors because I thought it suited my mood for how I have been feeling lately. I have been a lost soul of sorts these last few years, just wondering around, trying to find some meaning in my life. Being laid off from my job and going to school to improve my skills has not really brought me any closer to feeling like I have any answers. At the same time, I sense that something is going to happen; the energy in the air is changing. I don't know what is coming I just hope that I will be ready for it. 

The eternity of the soul keeps us wanting more
In the infinity of the cosmos
We keep searching for the end
Tidy, neat packages wrapped in string
Clearly labeled and sorted
The chaos within is all consuming
Swallowed by the black hole of our own despair
We fall freely, until
Created is the illusion of stability

If you find yourself feeling like a lost soul, do not fret. Know that you are not alone; many suffer together in our own private hells. It is the darkest before the dawn. Just breathe and keep on keeping on. 
Have an awesome Thursday!

Trekkie Tuesday

"Justice"- Season 1
I will be honest with you, I am not entirely sure why I am talking about this episode. It's one that I watched with some friends a few weeks ago and it was of general consensus that no one really enjoyed this episode. However, since we are rewatching the entire Next Gen. series from start to finish, we figured we had to watch this one as well. Frankly, it's just not a very good episode; there is bad script, bad acting and, most noteably, bad costuming.


 I don't know what more to say about it. It's the sort of thing that you have to have seen in order to really understand just how bad this episode is. I hope that the few pictures I have provided will give an idea of what we are dealing with here. There simply are no words.
However, I would love to hear your thoughts on this episode and please don't hold back! I will simply leave you with this thought; moose knuckle. Ponder that and get back to me.
Live long and prosper!
