Josiah's Dreams

An adorable children's story my cousin wrote and submitted to a children's book competition. I didn't know what to expect when she sent me the link, but I thorougly enjoyed it. The story is no longer than 2 minutes reading, I'd love to hear your takes. Josiah's DreamsOnly wish I had read the story before the voting period was over

I loved that story! Kind of reminded me of how I was as a young child, however not so rampant in my daydreaming. It had wonderful meter and rhyme, and the rhythm was great! I hope she won, or at least got some kind of honorable mention.

I found this statement amusing of you: "we're too similar and that's just boring." Funny how that works isn't it. I have guy friends who are similar to me and I've told them--more then once--there's no way in hell I'd ever go out with them, we'd always end up arguing and never get along. Being so much alike isn't the best thing I think. Jordan and I have a few key similarities, but more differences then similarites actually.

Your statement about the enviroment you're in and how the coddling of safe situations cause the realities of life to be a shock are quite interesting to me. Mostly because I understand that--to a degree--I wish life wasn't always "every man for himself" but it is...and that's just not right. To succeed in business (regardless of your career choice) you have to be heartless, ruthless, callous, and self-seeking. There are exceptions for every rule of course, but majority rules. I never really saw things that way, until Jordan and I got involved in this new business.

Sorry I'm rambling. I realized I haven't noted you in eons and felt something longer was in order.
