| Sitting here on this Monday morning at my computer many thoughts go rummaging through my head as always but today seems different. Maybe its because I am back on this site finally? Or maybe I thought I would try writing my thoughts out again once more...I don't know.
Deep within myself I think I know what I am doing.
I am confused on the surface of what is going on around me and unsure how to stop myself sometimes from wanting to burst.
Reflecting inward, all seems very clear and I know where to go as if I have already done all this before.
Outwards I see my environment, a very dog-eat-dog place where you must play well at "cutthroat" in order to thrive.
..........To hell with all that
Conjuring up what potential, energies and spirit that lie within is what must be done, projecting all that outward and molding my life into my imperfect and hole filled desired existence is what I must do in order to put an end to the cycles I often repeat. I may not understand how to fully do that at this time but I know working isn't the way for me. I won't ascend into management at my job, I don't want it and I know it. Nor will I be able to land a GOOD job unless I am lucky like lottery lucky. And I will find a way to overcome those road blocks. I may not have dealt with these challenges in the past but I have overthrown a lot in my way and DAMMIT if I did it then, I can do it NOW!
Maybe I awakened something that I once had just now...? Or something I never had before? It doesn't matter... All that matters is backing up my words here. | | |
| Well, it certainly has been a long time since I have been on here.... anyways, hello to those I don't see nor talk to often due to life getting in the way and me being distracted.
I don't know what came over me suddenly to hop on here to xanga once again but I am here and I must say I feel inspired at this tired moment in the morning!
Hey, I think some of us should hang out soon like the old days. Just an idea but other than that gotta say it's been nice to see ToP get closer to where I have dreamed it being everyday! Maybe we can actually get it released before the year is out...yeah.
So without further adieu, I will bring this update to a simple close and say that those of you who are not around me much you are missed.
Hope to see you fellows down the road!

| Musical Moment of the Day: "The Way of the Fist" by Five Finger Death Punch
Break this shit down!
Zoltan, open the sky!
You want it, you got it
Everything you needed and more
You said it, I heard it
Careful what you wish for
Deleted, defeated everything you've ever been
No mercy, it's the way of the fist
Strapped with rage, got no patience for victims
Sick and tired of the whole fuckin' world
I don't remember asking you about your imperfections
You might win one battle
But know this, I'll win the fucking war!
End of the goddamn road! (Right!)
Step to me, step to me motherfucker
Zip your lip, you've run out of time
Step to me, step to me anybody
Talk the talk, now walk the damn line
Deserve it, you earned it, got yourself a fuckin' war
Believe it, you need it, face down on the fuckin' floor
I hate it, can't take it
Wanna break your fuckin' bones
No mercy, you faggot
Should've left it all alone
Strapped with rage, got no patience for victims
Sick and tired of the whole fuckin' world
I don't remember asking you about your imperfections
You might win one battle
But know this, I'll win the fucking war!
As you crash and burn
1, 2, fuck you! (Right!)
Step to me, step to me motherfucker
Zip your lip, you've run out of time
Step to me, step to me anybody
Talk the talk, now walk the damn line!
Step to me, step to me motherfucker
Shut your face, it's your turn to die
Step to me, step to me anybody
Talk the shit, your ass is mine!
I don't remember asking you about your imperfections
You might win one battle
But know this, I'll win the fucking war!
Nobody likes you
Nobody cares
Stop being a bitch
For you have no passion
You have no drive
Society has a place for individuals like you
Not here
Nobody gives a fuck!
Hatred cannot express enough
What was months now has become years of rage built towards you
All the smiles around you are faked
Nobody likes you
You aren't good enough
Stop being a downright bitch
You have no drive
Society deems you belong else where
Where there are men in white coats to tend to your need
Everyone you know cares more for the dirt on their shoes
You are a leech
Stop sucking the life out of the good things
All the smiles around you are faked
Not here
You have no passion nor drive
Waste or damn life away
Slow others down
That's all you're good for
Loathing is too weak of a word for one such as yourself
Begone like a nightmare
Begone like a plague
Begone like the parasite that YOU ARE!!!
*Thats all my ranting for today

| Song of the day:
It's My Life by Bon Jovi
This ain't a song for the broken-hearted
No silent prayer for the faith-departed
I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd
You're gonna hear my voice
When I shout it out loud
[Chorus:]
It's my life
It's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life
This is for the ones who stood their ground
For Tommy and Gina who never backed down
Tomorrow's getting harder make no mistake
Luck ain't even lucky
Got to make your own breaks
[Chorus:]
It's my life
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life
Better stand tall when they're calling you out
Don't bend, don't break, baby, don't back down
[Chorus:]
It's my life
And it's now or never
'Cause I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
[Chorus:]
It's my life
And it's now or never
'Cause I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life!
Well, it certainly has been a while indeed. As many of you know I have returned to what I began 7 years ago. It's now or never, this time it will be finished make no mistake on that. I've been procrastinating enough on this project. My words from ages past will be fulfilled to each of you for being apart of this project, I am open to last minute ideas how to add the finishing touches on this. Honestly, when I began the Touch of Power project, I expected the game to fail with all of you back in Smoky Hill but each one of you surprised me immensely by your interest in the game and innovative ideas. From the depths of my soul I thank all of you because if it never captivated any of you I would have abandoned the idea and it wouldn't have grown into the 130 page book it is now with over 600 abilities, 20 classes to play through and the unique character development systems not yet seen before in table top games. It has been through over 7 different versions, systems, different dynamics and many races have come and gone throughout the history of this game. Thank you all for beta-testing and playing through the game's flaws and faults as well as adding your own ideas to it. I never even gave it the thought of EVER trying to publish it for the world to play until you, yes each one of you, from Kilian, to Matt to Luke. Andrew to Jamie to Eric to Kirk. I even thank the one responsible for the 3rd version of the character sheet and the monster group known as the Nymph Squad despite my history with her, she helped build this project, thank you Krystal. Of course for the ones not mentioned already I thank all of you deeply. Now for the next few weeks we shall see if my hard work, your entertainment as well as wonderful ideas and long waiting has paid off. Thank you all for playing.
