We are the forgotten children,
The ones who made mistakes.
We are the ones who try to set right,
What it is we have done wrong.

They are those that fight.
Longing for release,
Yet seemingly unable to listen when we say
“I was wrong.”

The globe spins,
’round and ’round.
I try and stand against it,
Yet I fight more than just space.

How, or why?
What happened?
When? and Who crossed who?
I am in part the cause of all destruction.

In this valley,
I see eagles circling.
For this prey is far too good
To leave for vultures.

What storm clouds that gather,
Those stars that collide,
Further to spread the beach sand,
Causing further irritation - I stand in their way.

Mere weather shall not stand in my way.
I have a goal, a journey to follow.
While it’s not been unscathed,
Blacked and hollowed, I must still fight on.

They are those who lie on the beach.
Knowing the cost, but hoping for naught.
I am the water that falls from the sky.
Trying to wash the sand away, for the time is high.

Serenity will soon come,
Hopefully the cost not too high.
For it is the day that we ask to say:
“We were wrong.”

We are those that lead our community.
We are those that take the extra time to make the hard calls.
We are those that make your recommendations reality.
We are those that hand out recognition.
We are those that don’t ask anything in return.
We are those that are taken for granted.
We are those that still are your friends.
We are those that don’t get asked how our day was.
We are those that don’t get hellos.
We are those that are approached when people want something.
We are those that don’t forget.
We are those that form your Executive Council.
We are those that don’t ask for (but still would like) a simple smile and thanks after a job well done.
We are those…

So, after doing some hunting about online, I - of course - found many many rumours about the ST:XI project (apparently due in 2007…) and I found myself to be completely disappointed. What is it with Star Trek’s most recent infatuation with the PAST when there’s so much left undone in the present time period of the ST universe? If you ask me, they just don’t want to touch the present because that leaves a lot of ST fans without all the fan fiction writing possibilities. What I’d really REALLY want to see in the future of Star Trek would be some finality to some of the plot strings they’ve already got going. With Will and Deanna leaving the Enterprise (and Data somehow still not the first officer…) that pretty much closed the book on TNG…however, there’s still VOY and DS9 to worry about. Voyager, in my mind, still has a lot of potential. Did Voyager finally deal a crippling blow to the Borg? What is the Federation going to be doing with the Maquis crew members? What happens to Captain Janeway that she becomes an Admiral - despite the wild predictions of many ST fans that she’d get demoted upon return to the Alpha Quadrant. What implications does the Doctor’s Holoemitter have on the current time period upon return? What happens to the Seven/Chakotay relationship? Does Harry ever FINALLY get promoted?

Alright, this one falls under the “I’m extremely tired” and “Ranty” catagory. Click ‘more’ to read it. (more…)

So, here’s my big thing - I have absolutly no idea where I’m headed. I can’t help but feel like I’m kind of a loser - no, that’s not the word. I’m a loner. Yes, a loner. I mean, my friends are basically all in this stupid little box. It totally sucks. Everything I seem to touch seems to melt into thin air. I just seem to loose track of friends…I don’t know where to head or what to do with life.

I’m rather annoyed. Yet - of course I can’t say much. Needless to say, I’m rather frustrated that someone called me a liar then didn’t believe me when I assured them I knew nothing. Like, what the crap.

Yes, things, for those who’ve noticed, are rather rough for me right now. My real life isn’t on steady waters right now. I’m basically living Meteora right now. I think I might have a chemical imbalance or something because whenever I’m REALLY happy for one day, I’m six times more UNHAPPY for twice as long as I’m happy.

Oh, and I’ve been having some serious headaches for two weeks now - incase anyone wondered.
