One Day, When We are A Little More Ready To Be Seen..
May you be held in the kind of comfort by the arms of Grace that those four walls of the church never did.. May you dance within the warmth of a dawns new light; and May you remember you’re worthy in those spaces of shadow before the sun draws out your night..

The Empty: And the Girl who Saves the World.
We all fantasized of the world ending in a zombie apocalypse, or some other overly cliche chaotic nightmare come to life. And maybe we imagined that particular doomsday because it made us feel comfortable in the hope that the world would recover; that the monsters were flesh, something we could kill. But the real monsters were in the minds of humankind; still living, and breathing, and not feeding off each other’s organs, but our fear. The Apocalypse came in “The Empty”, where we lost our sense of humanity, and exchanged our compassion for hate. The first one to choose this; a man the world saw as our savior led the population to blind themselves from the truth. He figured out how to get us to flip a switch to our emotions, to turn on each other, and forget who we were. A few of us Awake remain, and the rest sleep in their heads; walking the Earth dead in their hearts, and minds, tearing the earth apart in fire and lies. My name is Nakona Wilde, and I am the girl in this story who changes its end.
