Wow, Old things have passed away.

 Not many people know me, most times, people never truly do.

At this moment in time, a lot of things exist happening simultaneously around the world. Some good some bad. These things eventually come to you in the form of people and events, you 'taste' the world. You witness its beauty and ugliness.

Each new experience forms your person.

You learn you unlearn, you relearn. I'm going to be 24 years in two days. This feels like such a huge number. Do I feel my age? Nope. 

Since my mum passed 8 years ago, I had felt stuck in time. Never really growing up mentally because there were no longer parental markers to highlight my growth.

You were on your own. 

I noticed I still craved things, juvenile things as I aged, and I wanted them with the fervency I would have had, when I was younger.

I talked to my brother about this and he was able to help me get out of that state.

Now I'm not afraid to grow up. It's a blessing to be able to grow up. God made you, He knew what would happen, that I wouldn't grow up with my parents, that was why He became my strength.

He replaced my parents and raised me Himself. Talk about having the Creator raise you Himself.

What have I achieved? First, I'm saved by Christ. That is still my biggest achievement.

The second is that He's using me to save others.

Even as I experienced the good and the bad of this world, and my person formed, I didn't lose myself, who I was at my core. 

I now understand the world better but I found that nothing could make me waver. 

No one will be able to change my mind about what I believed in. It took a lot of falling and rising but my mindset is cemented in God's word.

If the world decides to be turbulent, I'll be the unmoving rock that breaks the head of the tide.

One thing is for certain, I shall fulfil my destiny whether the devil likes it or not. He cannot stop me. He knows. But he's trying to delay me, devil you can't.

He threw things at me thinking I would fall, but it only kept strengthening my resolve each day, I will become a force to be reckoned with, the darkness' worst nightmare.

I shall inherit this world because the meek shall inherit the world.


I am LIGHT, UNDER GOD. AND THIS WORLD SHALL KNOW HIM.

The fear has passed away.

Prompt 3: Murderer

Prompt: Pick a name, a place, thing and an emotion and write a short horror story about it. Name: Megan. Place: Tennessee. Thing: Axe. Emotion: Grief Dedicated to Gbolahan (G-easy/Gbolisky)♥ ***** It was the smell that woke her this time. That tangy, fishy smell. It was in the air and whether she liked it or not it was there to stay. It clung to everything- her clothes, it clung to the boxes and gas barrels that seemed to have been abandoned for who knows how long. The mouldy rocky floor was filled with the clothes and belongings of the deceased. Megan was locked up in some kind of underground warehouse. It was dark and humid. She could barely even see her hands in front of her. It had rained the night before. Drops of rain were slowly seeping in through the cracks of the floor above her. She was cold, hungry. Counting the days here, made no difference. All the days have long since merged into one. The smell was getting worse. Usually, the bodies didn't spend...

Prompt 1: Mykonos

Prompt: Pick a name, a place, thing and an emotion and write a short horror story about it. Name: Lauren Place: Mykonos A thing: Plier Emotion: Confused/Happy (pick any) Dedicated to Monijesu (Phaserprime) ****** She was gone and it's been two days. It's been two days of gut-wrenching anxiety and dread. The usual lively island was gloomy, giving it a rather tense atmosphere. Everybody knew everybody here, that was why when news of the cheery thirty-year-old fashion designer went missing, the whole island panicked. Mykonos was a small Greek island known for its Cycladic structures that often reminded people of the bronze ages. Mykonos was a summer house for the rich, the top percent of the population, a place to relax for vacations or just to get away from all the tension of the busy life that only the rich could relate to. Usually, it wasn't hard to move around here, usually you took a casual walk around town without having to worry about getting stabbed or shot...

GOLD

I'm looking for gold. Barefoot and hungry I wandered through the forest. My hands brushed roughly against tree trunks and shrubs as I leaned against them for support. I was tired, it's been two days. But I'd made a promise, I wouldn't leave without my gold. I could feel goosebumps rising up my body as the cold air clung jealously to my skin. 'I've lost him,' I thought looking back. Good. No one was going to share in my gold. Gold was all I needed in this world. I heard shuffling in the bushes nearby. I gasped turning around, arms and legs battle ready. "Who's there?" I silently cursed myself for sounding so shaky. There was no response. I tensed up. 'My gold,' I thought, 'my precious gold.' As I took a step towards the overgrown bushes, my lungs in my throat, out of nowhere an arrow flew right past me, missing my head by a few inches. I gasped, eyes wide. I turned around and made a run for it....
