"And it's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most, not where you live, what you drive or the price tag on your clothes. There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind." - Zac Brown Band

His eyes shine bluer than vast vacant skies
Bright smile, more bright than that of any sun
Lips as soft as love when his warm heart sighs
Golden hair, like that of a bold lion
When he speaks, he need not quiver nor shake
For he speaks of power, wisdom and truth
Majesty beyond mountains and great lakes
Reality past TV-men who claim youth
Charitable acts, never against his will,
He performs, during any time of year,
His knowledge beams through his fervor and skill
His compassion deems ceaseless and sincere
I sit in my room, with laughter I twist
Only in my mind does such man exist.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
