Beautification of the Clouds

Just another short flash fiction story about wanting to make the world a better place. Enjoy!


She ran into the great big city… buildings everywhere, skies unpolluted, people populated all around, arms and eyes wide open... The excitement cheered as she stood brightly upon the stage in a room filled wall to wall to announce her keynote speech. Wisdom was shared on how to promote change and betterment to the world. “Let’s fight for justice by seeing all people as human and not a color on a paint palette... because we are all beautiful!” The crowd exploded in jubilation and took action. The clouds can relax peacefully now…

Evolution from Sick and Twisted

Long story short, people need to stop seeing the world as something painful and start seeing it as something beautiful. Enjoy!


Sick and twisted life
Gives us pain like it's the bane of our existence
As we feign our identities to conform to society and get by...
But what if your heart beat is one in a million?

Not only are we thrown tragedy, but we're thrown pain... lots and lots of fiery pain... pain that's enough to cause depression... and depression that represents a succession of sadness that leads to a progression of prowls down the streets that propel you to the path of difference as you repel the evil and start your sessions of success!

Sick and twisted life can morph into a healthy and colorful beauty as depicted through the eyes of an artist...
An artist who's a positivity advocate, Working to place the rainbows into fruition
As we're warriors in this faction,
Fighting fractions
Only to be the main attraction...
Of people's eyesight and brain space...

It seems how people are oh so consumed in their overzealous ways...
Disregarding the feelings of others...
Picking on them,
Battering them into the ground,
Preying upon their beings,
Only to selfishly cause destruction...ruin...and instill unnecessary fear...

WHY??? WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE DOING?

Hello darling sick and twisted life...
Why can't we place a smile upon your childish glow, even though the world isn't entirely comprised of unicorns and smiley faces...
Some depict this as a beautiful storm...others call it a story... while some call it a morbid wasteland...
But in reality, we are all in the same place and living a different story...

Do you want to paint the world with your color palette or do you want to paint it with blood?
Do you want to start a fire to warm a town and get everyone to sing kumbaya, or are you going to be foolish enough to use your being as a detriment?
The elements are ours to manipulate in this sick and twisted land... but why not use them as a superpower?

This vast universe is a blank storybook canvas painted with words and images.
Negativity is as solid as a volcanic rock that can be crushed in the palm of a strong woman's hand...
Let's all turn this sick and twisted into big, brave, and bold... 

Evolve it into a beautiful universe...
Morph it into how we shall perceive the world today...
Which is a beautiful place splattered with color that we should view from a child's eyes... untainted and unharmed!
Now it's your turn to paint your story with some color and beauty to share!
And take action to destroy this sick and twisted view for once and for all!

The Stars Have Aligned

I wrote this lovely spoken word poem in dedication to my boyfriend who has been oh so wonderful to me since we've been together and I finally got in the mood to write a love poem... now that I actually know how it feels. Enjoy!



Dearest Max a Million,
Let me begin again to tell you how the stars have aligned…
When the pink-sunsetted skies and spiritual guides casted a powerful glow to continue the flow,
A case of the feels flew down my spine as my heart notified me today was going to be something special…
As I saw a shooting star whiz past the emptiness I once held in my glass, I was blessed with fairy dust being sprinkled upon me to convert my glass from empty to overflowing!

A few hours later, in a suburban apartment containing computer nerds, you blissfully graced my presence…
I felt your soul radiating throughout the main room as my senses were drawn to your essence in the same way a cat smells food and runs to go get it!
Your energy levels synced with mine behind your hazel eyes,
Enabling me to feel your gleaming aura
And tell me the stars have aligned…

Immediately, we form a team of protagonists and touch our superhero rings together like dorky cartoon characters to combine our powers, uniting as one being, while we combat the forces of evil and injustice!
Your significance to me is infinite because of how we both empower each other to exude our greatest strengths and turn each other’s weaknesses into superpowers!
Every time I feel the warmth melt from your hands I feel your entirety ejected into my veins through your gently beautiful soul.
When you were halfway around the world in India, I was still able to sense your presence thanks to the art of communication.

Before we met, I was consumed by a past flooded with pain and plentiful amounts of sorrows… until you mended me with your healing love and full-blown passions.
Listening to your heart beat enables me to notice how our different drums roar in unison as you inspire me to play more confidently, more boisterously, and to the best of my ability.
You embrace how different I am and see it as something beautiful in a way no one else can even fathom.
The more time we spend together, I crave to delve deeper into your core to know why and how you are who you really are,
But no matter what, I know the stars have aligned and you are all mine!

Throughout our adventures and struggles together, you're always there to hold my hand,
To catch me when I feel my world is going to crumble,
To hold me when I'm an erupting volcano in a fetal position by your side,
To instantly forgive me for my wrongdoings,
To kick turbulence to the curb and eliminate the toxic waste in my life
To share the same visions of success,
To accept me for how redonculously nerdy I am,
To be the person I can share my silly self with more than 100% with,
To be the special someone I can engage deep conversations about the meaning of everything
To be my go to person for book recommendations,
To be the taste tester I can share my food experiments and homemade soupie a la Rebs when you’re sick,
To let the tides pass during a trivial argument and allow me to communicate,
To inspire me to conquer each day and stand up for justice
And to engage in our glory walk, envisioning our forever’s together,
With me knowing how wonderful it is to be able to write a laundry list of reasons of how wonderful you are to me and still be able to continue writing indefinitely!

You are my rock, my set of ears that listens to me and appreciates me…
You are the missing piece of my puzzle I've been looking for my entire life!
Your unwavering support and being there for me means everything to me…

And just so you know, my darling:
I choose you isn't enough to express how much you mean to me and tell you how much I miss you when you’re gone… even if it’s for a day!
I love you isn't enough to show the depth of my feelings towards you, especially when you financially save me!
Thank you isn't enough to display my gratitude for all you've done for me!
You’re amazing isn’t even meaningful enough to tell you how incredibly beautiful and noble of a person you are and how much I love feeling your being even when I’m asleep…

I can't wait to continue unfolding our lives together down as our love at first sight was meant to be!
Time is a meaningless explanation of how love works, especially with you because you’re sweeter than my favorite blue pixie stick!
Your love helped a new version of me emerge from the previous darkness which is now healed by the ultimate medicine from your heart, which I love sharing with you too!
You are so sacred to me to where I can add you as a character in my book of wonder!
I want to embrace our lives as one as we continue trekking down the yellow brick road together skipping through the flowers and holding hands!
Your endless amazingness and gleaming glow behind your hazel eyes and your powerful presence is exactly how and why I know the stars have aligned,
And I'm more than lucky and thankful to be a superhero with you!
Because I confidently know that my heart is yours, and your heart is mine!

Love Rebs!

Stop Feeling Sorry For Yourself

Dear beautiful universe,

Stop feeling sorry for yourself… please! But why am I randomly coming out and saying this?
In a world where younger and younger people are emerging as instrumental prodigies, 10 year-olds becoming finalists on talent shows, 23 year-olds are signing deals with Mark Cuban, and general success is coming at a younger age for people, everyone just wants to be the best and make something of themselves.

Unfortunately, this may come at a large cost. While seeing all of these super successful people as inspirations, you yearn to see the same success within your own endeavors. You think that they rose to the top without any major blockades because they make it look easy. Although that could be true, there’s always another side to the coin… the side of which you have to fight adversity every day in order to accomplish the ultimate goal of yours. That may be more prevalent for individuals who classify themselves as “different”, but that’s more than ok. If you’ve heard of the stories of athletic stars rising from being homeless or that person’s magical idea that was rejected 26 times until someone decided to give them a chance is true. Success doesn’t magically appear with the snap of your fingers. You need to realize that lots of hard work, passion, and resilience are involved in climbing the ladder. Keep fighting, because it will happen as long as you don’t give up!

The more that you think of these young superstars, it may sometimes cause you to feel sorry for yourself because you aren’t achieving the ultimate success as early as they are… and you know what? That’s TOTALLY FINE! Not everyone finds their genuine passion as a young teeny bopper because there is no set age or timeline for success. There’s no one saying that “if you’re not successful by age 25, you’re going to be screwed over forever”. That’s completely false because everyone takes their own amount of time to truly find themselves and you need to understand that life isn’t a race. Be patient. As long as you keep trying and working towards your goal, just keep going and it will happen when you least expect it!

Not only that, but many people also come with quite the painful backstory. You are not the person with the backstory, but you are the person who overcame many challenges. If people bullied you, don’t let their problems adversely affect you. If you think you’re “fat” because we live in a world where people only claim that skinny and being ripped models are beautiful, don’t listen to society because you’re beautiful as long as you’re not some creepy criminal or something. With self-esteem issues flourishing up the wazoo, you need to realize that everyone’s path is different, everyone will reach success when the time is right FOR THEM, and the only way to win is to work. Even if you accomplish a smaller milestone, you should feel PROUD of yourself and realize that you’re one step closer to what you want. If you appreciate your accomplishments, you will become happier.

Most importantly, STOP DOUBTING YOURSELF and STOP THINKING THAT YOU’RE NOT GOOD ENOUGH. The more your attitude shows that, the less happy you will be. Not only that, but people flock towards confidence. If you present the world’s greatest idea and you’re like, “here’s my idea, but this sucks” you won’t receive as much support as you would if you presented your idea proudly and with style. Most of the time when we doubt ourselves, it’s because we want the utmost greatness. However, with failure comes lessons and with lessons come progress. Also, with your own self-doubt, other people can undermine you and not believe in you as much as they should. If you don’t believe in yourself, others won’t either. If you think your best isn’t good enough, you’re going to create discontent in your world, as well as create a blockade in your own progress. Just take a moment and APPRECIATE everything that you do because even if you don’t realize it, there are likely many people who are quite thankful for everything you have done. Your best is only your best and as long as you realize that you’re doing a good job, others will concur.

Please just take a moment, close your eyes, and think… think about all of the wonderful things you have accomplished. Even if you’re not a millionaire at 18, take your time, enjoy life, work hard, and success will come to you when the time is right FOR YOU! Don’t worry about them, worry about you! Don’t go comparing your life to someone else’s because it’s your life. Go rock it, appreciate everything you've accomplished in your unique life, and tell yourself how beautiful you are today!

From the bottom of my heart and with lots of love,
Rebs McDuxler
