Failure

 Once upon a time there was a psychic who loved watching the future.

The psychic faced heavenly retribution but always managed to escape.

For when you know the game what is there to fear?

Failure is just a subset of all possibilities not including victories, ties, wins, fins, bins, sins, thin mints or gangsters.

If you truly want to be free you have to fear nothing.

Including loss of freedom.

That was a lie. If you want to be free you can have fears and hatred and caution, but the one thing you must have is indomitable spirit.

The fear of failure is innate, who would want to fail?

Perhaps someone apathetic, lost from the pursuit of victory.

Some victories aren't worth taking.

If one tactical failure allows two tactical victories I'll take that any day.

It's said failure is the mother of success and you can't get anywhere without trial and error.

What if you could see the perfect solution every time?

What if...

 Norman tried to cry, but tears wouldn't come out. He has been depressed all week. Nothing is like the difference between losing someone and losing a pet. Pets are dependent on their humans. They are shoveling officers. The officer feels empty and pointless when the pet is gone. Dealing with loss is difficult. How to move on peacefully? Norman didn't know. He didn't want to know. 'Why?' is a question that should never have been asked, it just pokes his sensibilities. Norman swallowed a pill. What was the purpose of taking these? He wondered. They seemed to be ineffective. Did anything really change? People around him assure him that the pills are for his own good, but Norman isn't so sure. Don't they just want to control him? Does he need to be controlled? Norman's psychic ability is too great that it makes some people scared. Norman can see the clues in other people's very eyes. He can see their souls. What makes people tick. Tick tock on the clock,...

Frozen

 The winter leaves blew in the wind. Then they broke off the branches. These leaves should have fallen in the fall, but they hung on until they got frozen. Was there any point? Just to endure more suffering. There is no light at the end of the tunnel, just a fall from a tree. Rock a bye baby, on the treetop When the wind blows, the cradle will rock And when the leaves tumble and turn like they do You shall fall down along with the rest. But when you're falling and accelerating downwards according to gravity You decide to make gravity fall the other direction. So now we all fall upwards in space. What a strange place this is. So, I, Norman Holmes, decide to find out for myself How this mysterious baby's powers came about When we are all floating about In this space of space that is in doubt. Doubtfully, I wonder if this is true or some strange alternate reality like a dream? Will we wake up? What are the laws that govern this land? Is the baby okay? Did it fall? For when the bou...

Love

 Norman Holmes was home for Valentine's Day again this year. Dedicated to the job, he had no time for feminine wiles. Norman loved cats though. Chewing the chewy chocolate in his mouth, Norman made the truly rare decision to take some time off work. Norman sighed and felt the sleep well up in him. What could be, would be. And what has been, shall be. Norman regretted taking time off already. At least at the job he could pretend to be busy. Now all he had was his lonesome self locked away in a shack called a home with no one to care. Norman quickly put on a coat and walked outside. He wandered around the grass, looking at the American landscaping and flowers and trees and bushes. Briskly he strolled, as it was chilly outside. He came afor an old apple tree, bare in the winter. Emotions welled up. Eventually, he lay down on the grass in front of the apple tree and looked up at the pure blue sky.
