Lyrics and ?'s towards life

Heres the latest writings from the lte great A.D.Warrick
The World is a vampire set to drain where secret destroyers hold you up to the blame and what do I get for all my pain? a (squigley line because I couldn't remember the words) and a peice of game. despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage. Why is this song called bullet with butterfly wings? SMASHING PUMPKINS. I am sooooooo tired
Heres a journal entry from comp called Time:
Yesterday. Today. Tomorrow. Why does it matter? Time will continue on for all eternity whether we live or parish. Something we do today could play a big part in tomorrow’s future. Something I jot down on this sheet of paper could mean the biggest discovery in the history of our planet. A question I ask in math class could trigger finding out the ancient Egyptians math system. To kill one man could be to kill 1,000 of his unborn relatives. To think that if I had not read the Harry Potter books in fourth grade I would be a totally different person. What is the future how close is my future? Will I have lots of money? What is the past? Did I have a life before this? Was I reincarnated? How many times has the world ended and been recreated? So many questions and so little time in our lives to answer them all.
This is an esay I wrote awhile back (please excuse the gramatical errors)

I believe in my church and god, but to me it means something totally different than what most people associate with church. No acolyting or extra-long services. My church is my safe harbor, and the place for my friends. Somewhere in my mind, this is connected to god. The church has some large bills to pay because it’s fairly new, but I love it for what it really is, my home.

My small family church doesn’t really have the money, or the means to be top notch and fancy. Frankly, no one wants it to be fancy we all like it the way it is. It’s a good feeling to wake up in the morning and being exited about going to church. Fun family, friends, and forty-five minutes of god in a slightly shortened church service make up my Sundays.

Eve though the service is slightly shortened, god and Jesus seem to be everywhere in my church. In the smiling people and the big picture windows, and even the pond we canoe on in the summer. All the happiness and sunlight is almost tangible in the air. Even in the dead of the winter when it’s freezing, we all fell warm because of the people around us and the smiles of warmth. One time, the heater went off, and we all kept each other warm by huddling up, telling stories, and laughing together.

In truth I think it’s a gift that god gave me St. Michaels. When I was in third grade, the priest of my old church moved to St. Michaels, and my younger brother and I were in great need of a little bit of Sunday entertainment. We visited St. Michaels, and our whole family immediately fell in t the church and clicked with the people there. My brother and I practically got down on our knees and begged my mother to switch churches. Although she was reluctant to switch churches, now, my mom plays dulcimer and Autoharp for the folk choir, and she has started our churches Christ-Child Guild. Our whole family will forever be grateful to our church

My life was changed by my church and by all the things I have done there, and all the amazing people I have met through the place the congregation calls St. Mikes. St. Michaels will forever be in my heart as the place I belong.

Till next time,

A.D.Warrick

  1. I don't remember you and Phillip being down on your knees, but I'm glad you felt that way about St. M. Little Rock feels more like home to me now that we are a part of that amazing community.
