The Skeleton of a Dream
What remains when hope fades
He found the remains of an old dream lying fragile in his heart. It had no wings left, no fire, no color—just a thin structure of what it once was.

Why Should Living Have So Many Hobbies In It
When we live life do we think about how we should go about doing it or do we just do it? When you live, how do we do it? We sleep, we eat, we move our bodies, and that is what life is all about. The question is why should living have so many hobbies? We all know that having hobbies in life is a good thing because it is a way for us to relax and do things we enjoy. Sometimes we can do these things on our own and have some alone time and other times we can bring people with us and do it as a group. This all depends on the hobbies that we are doing and what we want out of them. Living the life that we want to live has so many hobbies because it makes how we live life worth it. The more we do the hobbies we enjoy in the way we live our lives the more we will get out of life through the hobbies we do. Living has hobbies to give life the variety that it does so that we are all uniquely different and so that we can get so much more out of life.
