Greetings and salutations!
Random Musings
I believe that Jesus Christ, fully human and fully God, is the Son of God and a part of the Trinity. I believe he came and lived sinlessly, died to save the world from sin and death, and gave us the Holy Spirit. I believe he rose from death and will return again in rapture and resurrection. I believe in the power and truth of the Bible, the Word of God.
Just thought I'd clear that up
FICTIONAL DREAMS
If they had told me it was going to be like this, I never would have volunteered. Another bullet had just slammed into the wall behind me and I was just about out of patience. I knew I only had 5 shots left, which is what happens when you carry a 9mm. Their kalashnikovs seemed to have plenty of ammo left though....god damn it.
I was able to see two of them moving toward my position. They knew I was there of
course, just not my exact hiding spot. Still, I didn't have much of an advantage or anything in the way of an escape route. It occured to me I had one chance. There was what appeared to be a petrol canister in the far corner. Time to use those bullets. When the sentries were close enough, I fired two shots into the canister. Luck break, it blew up and sent the men ducking for cover. I jumped up and fired my last three shots in their direction. I didn't get to see if they hit home though because I was busy diving through the now weakened wall to the outside.
CHANGE
She sat there, simply staring at me, and I could do nothing but stare back for the longest time. Her eyes, it was her souless, painful, beautiful eyes. They cried out and I wanted to as well. Darkness was coming and I was afraid of what might happen if I was still here when night came. I still wonder to this day, if she was actually real, or just some kind of gorgeous nightmare. She had touched me though, I remember it still. Her hand, still bloodied, had reached out to graze my cheek for only a fleeting moment. I had closed my eyes and time seemed to slow, and when I opened them, she was gone.
