To my faithful readers and friends.

I'm sorry to say, that I will not be updating for some time. Not
only am I not able to, due to school and my lack of inspiration,
but also because of something that has been happening over the
past year in my family.

Today, my little brother, at 13, was arrested, and led away by
the police in handcuffs. I just can't do anything right now. So
please bear with me. I do plan to start writing again after my
depression has lifted somewhat. Thank you for your reviews, your
comments, and your patience. I'm sorry if this bothers anyone,
but at the moment I have no will to write anything. Thank you.

A poem I came up with so FF.net would let me post this.

~What kind of world do we live in?
So full of pain and agony.
What is our reason for living
If all we can feel is hurt and blame?
Why are we alive at all?
Does some God really watch us
From skies so high?
Or maybe this is just me?
