painstaind

six things i could never do without...

The sun rising over the edge of the world.
The sound of a heartbeat.
The smell after it rains.
The feeling of the earth beneath my bare feet.
The warmth of a sunset.
The sweet surrender of a passionate kiss.

the story is in the pixels. (photo introduction idea stolen from crypticwhore)

My name is Haskell.
once upon a time i got married. bought a house, did all those things.

i was a soldier too.

when i got back from iraq i seperated from my ex-wife.


i was lost, so i went looking for myself.


there were some beautiful sunsets along the way.

i spent alot of time just getting by with my friends.

it took a while, but i learned to live for right now, not tomorrow or yesterday. living in the moment, while everything else is moving around me at it's own pace.

sometimes you just gotta relax, kick back, and enjoy the teacup ride.
chill under a beautiful cloudy day,

or go to a show/party.

i've learned that every sunset is different, new, beautiful in it's own right,


the same way every day is beautiful. Especially with the right set of foot prints running parrallel to yours.

melo: origins

because i thought it was a cool idea, and noone has ever really asked me what it means, i decided to post it here as well as on the melo origins thing, cause that is a great idea. this is what i wrote on the origins page:


"I wrote a poem when i was like 16 or something about how when people have seen hard times you could tell. it was like they wore their pain like a cloak, for protection, or for warning, or just because it was a part of who you are. people are painted with the pain they carry, as well as the happiness. the poem was called painstaind."


also i'd like to note that noone has ever read that poem. and if i find it i'll post it here.
if you don't know what i'm talking about, you should go here and do the melo:origins project, about the origin of your melo name.

Re: have that jealous signifcant other?

I want my hubby to read Some of my melo entries. I feel it will give him a better insight about me. But he prefers that I have melo just for me.

Re: have that jealous signifcant other?

Is it weird that I don't even mention melo to people? I will wear the shirt, but I don't tell folks I have an account. I told a lot of people when I first joined and it became a problem a few times...

Re: running from myself.

it's all going ok. big questions to answer, but for the most part i think the roads are opening up, and i'm heading in the direction i want to. sooner or later i won't need these silly roads.
