Buddhists characterize the agitated, restless quality of our negative thoughts as the Monkey Mind.  Like a troupe of monkeys swinging through the forest, our minds rarely pause to savor the peace of the present moment.  Instead, they move wildly from branch to branch, chattering and screeching about what we have or haven’t accomplished,  how we fear we’ve failed or will fail. Our negative thoughts keep us in a locked in a constant state of worry while we fritter away the moments of our lives in a turbulent back and forth journey between what was and what might be.All Rights Reserved

Wing's of Ice, Heart of Fire by PyroKyu

"I'm leaving. I... I just need some time away for a while. Sorry, just... if I don't, I'm afraid I'll snap, or pull a Fauna, if I don't. So... see you later, everyone." "Dizzy, please, leave. I don't want you to get hurt. Just run, and don't let them catch you." "M-mom... okay, love you." Two great ones, left from their families with vastly different causes, but the results are echoing.

Rosebella by IfeAdeife7

ALONE OR LONELY Ever felt like shutting out the world? Being alone with not even your thought Blocking everything else out Left alone with just the same old beat. No words said just the beaten beat, Angried when disturbed Headache comes in after Even feels sick of others voice That you wish to hear those annoying voices; Inside ones head for a change? And you can stare into nothing for hours? No thought in mind Are you been lonely; Or you wants to be alone? That's what am feeling right now. No emotions for now, Just wants to be. Its all about feeling left out and in the dark of what lays beyond.

The Savant by elaiowo

"Ponder upon the nature of reality, [∎∎]. The past is a memory, while the future is an expectation. Both being equally as ungrounded in reality as we know it. The present however, is the never-ending permanence of the reality we experience. The true nature of reality is infinite and nonexistent, at the same time. It is the duty of a {Savant} to understand and interpret the true machinations of the universe's [Ultimate Endeavor]. If one succours their soul in the face of the [Ultimate Endeavor], only then can the {Savant} transcend the confines of reality, and end the eternal dream."
