Howdy!

Well, this is my first official post here. They'll get better as I go, but, for right now, I'm learning how it all works. I may post some opinion based things now and again, but know that I mean no disrespect or offense toward ANYONE. I will respect everyone who views this blog, and I would like for them to, in turn, respect others on here as well. I heard a Native American story once (sorry I can't remember what tribe it's from now), and it went something like this:

Once, the wife of a brave warrior was out picking berries with her children. While out in the woods, one of the children stumbled upon a snake. The mother was so scared for her child's life, that she killed the snake. When her husband came home, she told him what she had done. He was very upset because, by killing a member of the Rattlesnake Clan, she had upset the balance in nature, and he knew they would seek revenge. And they did. In the middle of the night, several people from the Rattlesnake Clan came to the warrior's lodge, and made a deal with him. They would bear no ill will toward him or his children, so long as he allowed them to kill the warrior's wife for her actions.

Well, one things leads to another, and, in the end, the snakes do kill the woman to make the balance equal again. It won't be THAT violent here, but remember, "If you can't play nice here, go somewhere else!"

Have fun, and let me know if you want to know my opinion about something.

  1. Well done, Trinity! I hope your blog brings you a lot of fun. It's a little like keeping a diary, only folks talk back to you sometimes.

  2. Thanks, Mr. Valance. It sounded like fun, and maybe I can talk about some cool stuff every now and then.

    I wonder if I can put my poetry and fan fiction on here? Wonder if anyone would mind...
