After a couple years gone, I think it's about time I made a return. Time to upload some poetry.

Biography
I believe there is a reason for everything. This is not, as some people might think, an empty platitude, but rather the absolute, frightening truth. There is a reason for everything. To look back on life and see all the various paths I could have chosen that would have altered who I am on a fundamental level is enough to overwhelm me. Love has made me hopeful and idealistic, cruelty from others has made me strong, and poetry has helped me survive it all. I'm a psychology student and, if psychological typing means anything to you, I'm an INFP with a broad sense of humor, a strongly philosophical mind, and an unbreakable will when it comes to things that matter. I am extremely faithful to my friends but I am also highly selective. I alternate between appreciating the complexities of the human mind and trying to help others with their problems. If you need any help or advice, just ask. I may not have all the answers, but sometimes it just helps to have someone who is willing to listen.

- Well hello, my name is Brandi. And that's a good idea. But you should always try to write that way! Duh! That's what makes writing pretty. And I will check out your poems... Here in a little bit. I think that it's good to write in different ways though. Get's your expression out there that much better. Way cool. :) Ttyl.
