294/365

 

It's National Why I Write day or something of the sort and I told Ms. Proulx that I'd dedicate my 365 for today to it.

 

So.

 

I write because sometimes life doesn't bring me where I want how I want and instead of getting out there and being all assertive and annoying and whatnot I can go and pretend it happened by channeling the music-loving/emotion-feeling/self-aware romantic in myself (not hard, I should say. It doesn't actually need any channelling at all) and opening my laptop and creating a character that reminds most people uncannily of the author herself and creating a situation that is mysteriously parallel to something that happened recently. Except there's always a perfect ending.

 

Either that or I'm just in the mood for something to read and I can't find anything to read that suits my criteria for what I want to read about so I'm just like "screw this I'll write it myself"

 

That's actually what happens most of the time but the former situation makes me sound much more eloquent.

“What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever been given?”

 

“Never write down anything you wouldn’t want read out in court. You never know when it could come back to bite you on the arse. I’m a solicitor so I know the extent of that. It applies in all aspects of life. Leave no trail, you won’t need no bail.”

The easiest way to get paint or ink or anything else on paper is via the fingers. Its tried and proven by kids everywhere :D

About 20years ago this former Devon Iveco minibus was on transfer to the North West for conversion into a mobile engineering workshop.

Whilst on the second leg of it's journey from Hyde Road the bus fell victim to an engine fire.

The bus is pictured here at the compound at Ackhurst Industrial Estate, Chorley.

The front door of a long-abandoned house in Howth, county Dublin. I wonder what tidings of joy or sorrow passed through this letterbox...

Tonight, I can write the saddest verses.

I loved her, and at times, she loved me too.

 

On nights like this, I held her in my arms.

I kissed her so many times beneath the infinite sky.

 

She loved me, sometimes I loved her too.

How could I not have loved her intense, steady gaze?

 

Tonight, I can write the saddest verses.

To think that I do not have her. To feel that I have lost her.

There’s a man who walks around my campus with a sign. It’s a sign that many of us don’t understand and might seem a little harsh and judgemental-- it’s a sign that I take one glance at and write it off as a hateful, religious, and full of non-sense. Deep down inside, I judge these people who hold up these signs. Deep down inside, I call them hypocrites who don’t really know jesus. Today, I’m sorry that I’ve had these thoughts, even if I didn’t verbalize it. Today, I’m sorry for thinking that I am right, they are wrong; I know justice, they don’t; I know love, they don’t.

  

Today, I met the man who holds up these signs around my campus. His name is Monte. When I approached him, I was expecting him to be a grumpy old man, ready to bark at me and tell me to go away. I already had my preconceived notions of him, which is why I was surprised when I met a man who smiled and openly shared his story.

  

Monte grew up in a non-religious household. His grandma had 12 children and his mother was a middle child. It was a tough childhood for Monte, but he always had his grandma’s love. His grandma would always recite bible verses for him and give him toys with scriptures on them. It wasn’t until Monte’s college days when he first experienced the love of God. He described it as:

  

“I felt peace and joy-- it was incredible and I knew that God was real.”

  

From that point, Monte dedicated his life to God. He told himself that he would commit his life to deepening his relationship with God. One event lead to another and he discovered himself dropping out of college to travel the country and let God lead his life. His friend gave him a tiny bible, which Monte would carry with him throughout all his adventures.

  

“The Bible, it came alive to me. I read it and I read it as I hitch hiked all day, and miracles would happen-- everything I needed was provided”.

  

He continued to tell me more.

  

“I am shy person. When I first started doing this, I was nervous. God told me to sing, you know, to break the ice and all. So I would start off singing softly ‘Jesus loves me this I know...’ Instantly, the spirit would fill me and I would shoot my arms up and sing louder. God works that way and he can change you for good. God told me I don’t need to please men because I am made to please God. My signs are bold, but that’s because I want to grab their attention. People need to know the truth, and that is God’s love.”

  

I felt inspired by this man. I could see it in his eyes and by the way he smiles when he talks, that Monte is a man who genuinely loves God. I felt moved to pray for him, so I asked him if I could. He seemed very happy that I asked and he joyfully nodded.

  

Thank you Monte, you have become Stranger #111 in my on-going stranger project.
