Another month has arrived. So that means another blog post about my monthly goals for the month. Since this week already got a chapter, there's not need for another.
So the goals is try and have a chapter a week, but at the moment, I only have one chapter written. It's the chapter that would have gone out this week. I've also gotten the next chapter of TGP ready to go.
Starting this coming Sunday, I'll be releasing new chapters on Sundays instead of Wednesdays, but if I don't make have it ready on Sunday, I'll try to get something out later in the week. Be sure to visit here for updates on when that happens.
Thanks for everything that ya'll do.
Love,
CL

Daily Dabble - 5/14/15
Word
Words are so important. Words convey so much that we take for granted. Words are the world to some; mostly those who write. Words feel are life with so much. Sometimes we forget how important words are. Sometimes the good words are forgot because of the bad ones. Not cuss words, but words that hurt.
A word can change so much how a person reacts to you. It can cause someone to hate you or dislike you, at least.

passion
The cause of some problems. It's not necessarily a bad, but it can cause pain. It can be for change or beliefs, not just something more personal. Passion is something we all need about something. We've seen what passion for a cause can do, be it good or bad.
We seem to admire those who do something with a passion, but sometimes we don't.

Worry
Fear of what could be coming. Fear of the unknown. So many fears come from this word. This one word causes so many problems. It causes stress, which can cause so many problems for people. Worrying is something someone does every once in a while, or it's a constant friend. Worry is something some people fear in of itself.

I didn't know what to make of what I was seeing. I had never heard much less seen a black unicorn. I had seen the Pegasus that was beside him before. She was flying around him, seemingly trying to get his attention. He would throw up his head, but he only stood at the edge of the cliff.
Finally, she landed as close to him as she could. He lowered his head slightly as she walked over to him. Then to my surprise they nuzzled each other. What was this? Suddenly, a tiny little Pegasus came flying out of the forest beyond the cliff. It stopped abruptly before going over the edge. I soon realized something that I could ever had imagine. On the young Pegasus's head, was a small horn.

They stood under the flowering tree, below a full moon. Who were they? Why were they there? None knew. They stood back to back of each other in silence. All any one did know was they were someone of importance or at least one of them was. They were dressed in fine clothing, which seemed out of place in the shabby village. No one from the village dared go near them. None wished to deal with those swords.
So they came and went as they wished, while the village watched and came up with its own tales about them. Never knowing who they really were.

What had this temple once represent? Had it held priests or priestesses? Was it visited daily or was it a pilgrimage? Now it was not more than a ruin. Should I walked up it's stairs and reach the temple's highest point?
It felt calm near the bottom of the stairs. The rest of the forest had been nosiy, but now it was silent. I didn't like that. Why was it so silent here? What kept the bugs and animals away from the area?
Slowly I left the temple in the forest the way I found it. I decided that since the forest kept it alone, I would as well.

She had to flee. She had no choice. Either she stayed and lived a life she didn't want, or she left all she knew to try for something new.
Sitring upon her horse at the edge of the river, she looked up at the full moon. Soon they would notice, she was gone. They would come fast as they could to stop her.
Hearing them coming, she urged her horse into the water. She had to cross before they arrived. They wouldn't follow after her. As she reached the other bank, she turned as they guards appeared.
She smiled as she urged her horse forwards. She was free.

It once stood so noble, full of life, but now the great castle stood in ruins. How could this have happen? He had only been gone a few years, not the decade like other lords. What had happened to his keep? Where was hid family? The former lord hung his head before he remounted his horse and left.

I slowly moved the branch out of my way to see the lake beyond. I couldn't help but smile as I watched the two magnificent birds. They looked like two normal swans to me, but I didn't know what they truly were until later. The moon looked massive beind them. It looked so close I felt I could touch it.
The two swans swam side by side. They looked so gracefully as they moved. I almost wished I could capture them, but I knew that would fail. So I stayed in my hdidng spot watching.
Suddenly, they took the air, looking just as gracefully as they had on the water. It almost looked like they were rising into a light, but I knew that couldn't be true. I moved the branch back and left that lovely lake, with only my memories to remind me.

The Ice Dragon is something you truly don't want to come upon. Especially if she has her young with her. She is a fierce mother. Unlike her fire breathing cousin, she will freeze you where you stand, instead of burning you into a crisp.
Ice Dragons prefer cold place, of course. Mostly they live high into the mountains or at the poles. They also prefer to stay away from their warmer cousin. The two types of dragons do not mix. They are enemies, if an animal can have one.
Ice Dragons are slightly harder to earn the trust of than a fire dragon. While a fire dragon may let you closer if you bring it some type of trinket to add to its horde, an ice dragon requires more. This is because an ice dragon does not have a horde.

I missed a day. I had a different work schedule on the 1st so it threw me off. I didn't remember until 3am today, which is why I'm posting today's now.

Riding high in the sky, we can see everything. We see the river flow through the tiny village we once called home. We see the farm lands that surround it in golden colors. What we don't see is why we're leaving. We no longer belong to that quiet little village. Not after they discovered our secret. We had to leave everything behind, including Mother and Father.
They would use him, hurt him, or worse kill him. We can't let that happen. So here we are flying high above all we knew, to save our friend. The world is not ready to learn that he or his kind exist in the world hidden most of the time.
We should had never lead him to our home, but we didn't know. Now we pay more than he does. He's returning home, with us in tow. We both refuse to cry as he flies higher into the clouds.
We won't forget what we left, but we can't go back. With him gone, they will no doubt come after us.

I walked along the brook. All was silent around me. I could only hear the sound of the water as it rushed over the rocks. I came upon the edge of the woods. I slowly emerged and froze in place. Standing near the edge of a cliff, stood the majestic beast. A unicorn. It stood gazing out over the land below, framing the massive moon behind it.
I stood still in shock. Would it attack? Would it flee? I knew not. I stayed still and watched. It turned it's head slightly as to look behind, for a moment, but did nothing else. It just stood and watch, as did I. We both remained there at the edge until the unicorn slowly walked away. Paying no mind to me. Soon I followed its lead and left the cliff, following the brook back.

Two sisters on the opposite side of power. One is light, the other dark. One controls the weather, causing snow to fall. The dark sister commands the animals. They sit opposite each other, but not warring. Although, they are different they work together. What is odd is that their symbols don't go with their personality. The light sister has a crescent moon, while her sister has a full moon. Did something happen and the two sister switch roles at some point? Who's to know. No one can asked them as they float high above in the sky. The sisters watch over and help whom they wish, but what does that help cost to the person they helped?

Busy streets. Mules, oxen, and horses pulling wagons through the streets. The old lady yelling out her prices for some fruit from her farm outside the city. People bowing as some noble walks the streets. The Queen and King sitting in their thrones as they greet far away dignitaries. Children running along the streets, barely missing the busy traffic.
The mountains help to keep the city cool in its valley. Miners digging into the mountains finding new ores to big up.

Storms rolling in. Lives lost. Darkness covered the state of Alabama. People helping each other. People fighting to get to each other. Homes became rumble. This day left a scar on the state, but it's slowly recovering. Nature has grown and cover what it can, while man has rebuilt cities.
The world turned dark, but we over came it. No matter what team we cheer for come the fall, we all come together to help each other. Mother nature may take what she wishes, but we will always stay strong. At least, now we all pay more attention to the weather, because of that day.
_______________________________________________________________________________________
I want to explain this dabble. If you don't know. On April 27, 2011, Alabama was hit with multiple tornadoes. A lot of lives were lost. We had a F5 that came basically from the Mississippi state line to Birmingham. I was two miles away from it when it came through. We're still rebuilding, but there are places you can't even tell it came through now. Of course, there are places you can see the damage, but that's trees along the interstate.
I'll try to get this out earlier tomorrow. Thanks for reading.

Since this is the first post, let me explain the idea behind this. The idea is to find something, be it a word, video, or picture to write about. So here's the first one of the new series. I'll always post a link or the actual thing as best I can so you can see what I'm talking about. I should warn you that some times they won't make complete sense.

Spring
Birds returning to nest. Birds flocking in the trees. Birds singing in the trees. Squirrels running around once again. Animals waking up from their "long winter nap. (1)" The grass is becoming green. The trees are slowly returning to life. Flowers begin to push their way up through the warming dirt.
Rain pours down. Rivers overflow. Winds blow. Homes lost. Lives lost. Spring isn't always sunshine and rainbows. It also brings with it storms that cause so much damage to the earth and us, but we rebuild as does nature. It is all part of life in the South. Well, the entire United States.
