Promise
I made a promise to myself some time ago that I would continue living, that if, at the time, I could not find something to live for, I would find it in the future, and that if, at the end of my days it still eluded me, I would, regardless, die without regrets.

Do you know what it's like to have your dreams...

How to take notes in math class
Taking notes in math class is not like taking notes in other classes; it’s a skill. As with all skills, practice makes perfect.

Dry wells can’t be filled

simply won’t suffice.
Transience
Much of our time is spent in anticipation for the next phase of life. My elementary school teachers frequently told us that fifth grade was the “no joking, preparation for middle school” period. My middle school teachers said the same thing about eighth grade, except the word middle was replaced with high. I’m in my last year of high school now. And just as I waited to get into...

Thoughts
It’s snowing right now. In a way, the snow is like a blanket of forgetfulness. It imparts simplicity and purity to everything it covers, and one would be hard pressed trying to find fault with its handiwork. Nevertheless, when it begins to melt, the beauty will give way to a certain unpleasantness, which in turn will give birth to the rustling leaves and vibrant colors of spring. This...
The Eagle
He clasps the crag with crooked hands; Close to the sun in lonely lands, Ringed with the azure world, he stands.
The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls; He watches from his mountain walls, And like a thunderbolt he falls.
