The Power of Imagination!

 The beauty of imagination has been something that has always excited me as well as inspire me to become a writer and be able to create a world where it could be used to inspire others.

Using our imagination can be used in so many different ways whether it be to make up a game to play when we were kids or even use it to help create something special that can help change the world as we know it.

As I have been going through a lot of self-reflecting, I realized how much being creative and writing stories help saved my life and to be even more frank, learn a lot about myself as a human being.

Imagination has brought me so much joy and to be honest a feeling of comfort and safety and more importantly, HOPE!

Hope was a feeling that I could never ever possess in my life and I often wonder why I would randomly write things down or just write characters or stories. Looking back on some of them I noticed a change about me as well as the difference in my writing.

I use to think of dark, gothic, depressing and even suicidal thoughts a lot of the time. I still to some degree write that way, but now I have brought more hope to a lot of it and I am forever grateful for that.

And now I want to use my writing to create something special for not only myself, but also to the people I love and to anyone out there in this crazy world that I am meet some day or never meet in person. I want to inspire others to use their gifts to create something special whether it will be in music, story telling or something else like becoming a teacher, or a priest or just being a truck driver that gets to see the beauty of the open road. Let your imagination fly!

That is one of my goals with these blogs and I pray that these have given people out there enjoyment and hope. I would also like to publish a book someday and I would love to be able to use my writing to inspire others to do the same.

More importantly, I want to encourage everyone out there who reads these and let them know that it is ok to have an imagination and use it to bring good into the world and always know that there is hope and beauty even in a world that is surrounded in darkness.

God Bless every single one of you!

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
