We're at 103,000 feet. Looking out over a very beautiful, beautiful world ... a hostile sky. As you look up the sky looks beautiful but hostile. As you sit here you realize that Man will never conquer space. He will learn to live with it, but he will never conquer it. Can see for over 400 miles. Beneath me I can see the clouds... . They are beautiful ... looking through my mirror the sky is absolutely black. Void of anything... . I can see the beautiful blue of the sky and above that it goes into a deep, deep, dark, indescribable blue which no artist can ever duplicate. It's fantastic.

Times have changed, I'm not on Wattpad anymore. And I've been busy with other things, I just want to say sorry to the people I let down. I have multiple ideas but when I try to execute them, they suck.
More books will be coming soon and I promise you, they'll be good.
I just need ideas...
Announcement: I'm done with the Search and Rescue Book.
