Goodbye, cruel world

After some deliberation, I've decided to migrate to a new blog.

http://davohynds.wordpress.com/

It's just better for me, more and better features. So farewell, Xanga friends, but I'm not going far.

Thanks all for reading.

Fin Xanga.

A river, dark and silent

In the midst of the weighty chaos of the everyday,
In the tumultuous heaviness,
Consistent only in its inconsistency,
I rest in you.

Who knew that love could run so deep?

Idyllic childhood birthday cake

As I was walking to work this morning, I passed a kid standing at the bus stop. He had his tongue out and was making a farting noise with his mouth, staring off at nothing. His mom stood across from him, berating him. He payed attention to anything except for her. "Keep on doing that, you little shit," she said. "I'll withhold your birthday all day if that's how you're going to act. You won't get anything. I have the right to do that, you know?" The other mother and six kids standing with them stared awkwardly at the trees.

The scene jolted me out of my routine. In the familiarity of the ins and outs of my day, it's helpful to remember that mine is not the summation of the human experience. A world exists outside of my own world, and for some this world is vastly different from mine.

I'm at a loss at times like these.

Well-travelled blog

My blog has seen the world. Or so it would seem. I recently tallied the hits on my blog by location.

So here are where my visitors are reading from, in order from most to least:
  1. Belgium
  2. California
  3. Indiana
  4. New York
  5. Spain
I really am curious about the Belgium one. I think I only know one person in Belgium, and that's S-Dawg, my high school English teacher, but I don't think it's him.

I figure Cali is you, Kelley?

Oh, and I logged a new one yesterday: Syrian Arab Republic. Ok. I'm sure I don't know a soul there.

My blog... it's been around the block.
