Forevermore says the raven

 As I lay awake this cold and dark night. Can’t sleep and I have tried with all my might. I peer out into the darkness and see nothing in sight.

It is the same feeling that I feel inside my heart, so cold and empty. I’ve tried everything I could to fill the void but nothing ever seems to satisfy me.

Am I to wonder in this god forsaken world with no hope forthcoming? Or shall I reduce myself to nothing?

Everywhere I go, I see hopelessness in the eyes of my fellow man. It is a sight I can no longer withstand.


The loneliness in my heart is a pain I do not wish on my worst enemy. No matter how much pain is in front of me.


I lay down and pray to all the angels and the saints to guide me. To the one true being that I pray will find me.


Nothing makes sense in this world and no one here can tell me what is true. So I shall lay here feeling blue.


Somedays, I don't know how I can keep living. I can’t see how I can live a life that is fulfilling.


God only knows the things I truly desire. Yet somehow it makes me feel so inspired.


Are you telling me Lord that everything I am feeling is ok? Or am I making a mistake that will make me rot away?


As I continue on this spiritual journey of mine through the eyes of a raven. I may someday find that safe haven.


I pray that I can find you Lord because I have so many questions with answers I must know. For through this dark world, I truly have no other place to go.


Until that day I will continue on and see what is in store. I pray that you will always be with me, quote the raven, forevermore.

Lewistown Area High School Class of 2009

 I can't believe it has been 15 years since me and Chad have graduated from Lewistown Area High School back in 2009. High school was a very interesting time for not just myself, but for many of us who had attended, mainly because usually times at high school is the time of getting to know ones self and discover who they are and what there place is in this world. Being a teenage to becoming a young adult can be very challenging to a lot of people during this time in life. Especially with dealing with all sorts of different emotions that we didn't understand before. Sadly, there are also a lot of young people who struggled to figure things out during their time in high school and I was certainly one of those people.  I mention this because recently I found and looked back through my yearbook when I graduated from Lewistown and it was pretty cool to see some old faces especially now that I am older and learned so much about myself. The only problem about this is I wish I knew what

The Wacky Adventures Of Joshua and Chad: McVeytown Eagles Championship Parade!

Image
Well tonight was a pretty special night down here in McVeytown as Chad and I along with many other people who live here in McVeytown all came together to celebrate a special accomplishment. And that was how all three of the McVeytown Eagles teams made it to the CKYFL championship games. Winning in both the Peewee and Midget divisions and placing second in the Mighty Mights. Stuff like this doesn't happen often in such a small town where I live so to see these kids have the time of their lives during the parade was certainly a sight to see. One of the things I love about covering sports is when I see kids learn, work hard and turn it into success. And these kids were learning a lot throughout the season and watching them grow and not only become better football players, but better people as well.  Which is why I have really enjoyed covering the CKYFL these last few years for Hometown Sports. People like Travis McCullough who is the President of the league along with Adam Weaver, Rob

What's going on? Being honest with ourselves!

 I don't like to cause any problems with anybody but there have been a lot of things that I been wanting to get off my chest for a very long time now. And that is in my humble opinion people don't seem to want to be honest about really anything anymore. Now, I could be just a little paranoid, maybe my anxiety is getting the best of me or whatever. But as time has past I have been getting a weird feeling all over me. You see, I just feel as though people no one is really being honest with each other, themselves or to God anymore. I wish I could describe it better but it has been a concern of mine for quite a long time now and I feel like it is getting worse. People would always say things to me like, Josh it is just a different time. But honestly, I think that is just a lame excuse. And the reason I say that is because a lot of those same people who say that kind of stuff to me are the exact same people who then say that they don't understand how things around us are getting
