Line up the time

The world is crumbling...the time was prophesied to come but nobody was looking. Nobody was watching the signs, the changes of seasons, the changing of mind.

Without anyone noticing everyone had changed.

Once, people knew there was a God in this world but no longer do they have this spark in them. People once knew what was truly right and what was truly wrong but now differentiating one from the other has become...hard?

Since when have we begun to step off the road of righteousness. Since when have we fallen into such chaos. Can't you see, can't you see whats wrong with this world. Can't you see its...crumbling. Of course you can but you've been wired to a docile unintelligent state, "mentally", we have entered into a world you can effectively say in a "stupor".

I come not to mince my words but to raise his voice. I come to be a light to a world in darkness, I come to build something that can never be taken down. Once was there a God in the world feared by all. Once again his name shall rise in glory and honor, and praise. He sent us his son to this realm as a peaceable one yet with a sword of righteousness. He is here to save but families will be split and ones of their own household will target eachothers necks.

This was how he came the first time. But what about now in a world that doesn't even know his father. A world that turned it's back to his father and forsook him and his father. I am not some grand or noble person I merely come with words of reason. I also highly advised against looking at this as just some story but something thats happening as we speak. This story is about someone who shall raise the peaceable one's voice.

I believe that since your here let's start.

Friday, 11th

Time:12:30am

*dink* *dink* *dink*

The low metallic sound of the water leaking from the ceiling into the pan breaks the painful silence. *vrooom* *vroooooom*

HA, I knew this was going to be bad but this was unexpectedly worse than I thought it would be. Zachariah says as he lays on a mat in his small back alley motel. It's gotta be a curse right? Every time I go look outside the world seems to be worst than the last time I looked out.

I just don't get it, what's wrong with our people nowadays. It's like we play a trumpet everyday to get up and release some of our stress with scripture in the church. But the problem is that this is not suppose to be some motivational speech to get you up and ready. For the next week is it? I find it hard to believe this is what church was suppose to be.

I remember when I was young no matter old or young the women had an aura around them though there was a difference as in immature and mature depending on age; the women felt actually capatible, they were innocent and they were righteous. They had morals, they protected you from making a foolish mistake and line yourself up with bad apples amongst them. Along with that their personalities were more pure, you could still have a women with spice or sassiness without her being over the top, and unbearable; The best thing was they weren't all that calculating looking to dip their hands into your pocket by pulling certain emotional strings, like looking for the next dish of money.

The men, the older brothers were really something else. They...Nevermind, the past is the past, the future is your goal, and the present is your work toward your goal. "(remember that)".

After braking out of his remenencing thoughts Zachariah subconsciously takes his bag of clothes which comprises of 2 shirts, 2 pants, 2 pair of worn out shoes, a cap, and 3 pairs of socks. No underwear except for what he wears everyday. It's simply how things are with (practically) no money, no job, and no way out of this situation. His situation was already bad and he was already thinking about saving up to buy a expert's book to learn how to live in the wilderness. Not to mention the fact that he had only lost his job 2 weeks ago. Having fallen from a nice comfortable house to just about ready to be kicked to the streets so quickly would crush anybody who is unused to the life of the wretchedly poor.

I've done many things I shouldn't have and I have been knocked down to where I am because of it and I know that. As Zachariah's thoughts were flowing through his mind a knock swept through the annoying roaring of a vehicle and slapped his conciousness awake. After finally breaking free from his thoughts he noticed he was already at the door; weird I'm already at the door but I don't remember walking here.

*BANG* *BANG* *BANG* I KNOW YOUR IN THERE, GET OUT OR ELSE.

With that Zachariah instantly knew what was going to happen next. As soon as Zachariah opened the door he was grabbed by the shoulder and shoved out. Two slightly big, fit, yet rough looking men was staring daggers at Zachariah. Then the 2 rough looking men stepped away from each other to show an out of place handsome man with glaringly prideful aura. Well, well, well, obviously seems you weren't expecting me to find out huh? You do know that I can see your current job, balance, and income total right, say...

Just as the handsome man was about to say more Zachariah barked through, hold up, what do you mean you can see my balance. I didn't agree to allowing anyone see my bank information... DON'T INTERUPT ME WHEN I'M TALKING, anyways, you want to know how I got your banking info right? Alright then I'll tell you, it's called the fine print.

What fine print, I read all the papers and...WAIT, you don't mean...

Yes it's exactly those sets of papers, you did have the option to look at them and deal with them yourself and knock off some of the things you wouldn't like, but, I'm guessing the welcoming and calming air lowered your guard did it not. Sigh, It's new years eve and now look at where I am. Having to deal with another dog who couldn't differentiate left from right. Oh well isn't really a habit of mine but I guess I'll be kicking another poor soul out. Oh and don't come back if you don't got the money to pay, my prices are always cheap.

As rude and insulting as this fellow was he still shot a marketing statement to the same man he had just deemed as a dog with no money.

With that Zachariah was officially on the streets.

Left with questions that couldn't be answered he kept asking himself why.. Why did I never think to save money up for situations like these, for possibly losing my job or for the future in any case I would have had something to cushion my fall. I wouldn't be in such a miserable position if I had looked at everything and considered losing it all too. Zachariah was starting to get overwhelmed in thoughts of what he could of done.

At this point the bodyguards were... not paying much attention to Zachariah. Instead the two were huddled up a couple meters away doing something else making quite a bit of noise.

Zachariah still overwhelmed in thoughts was starting to pity himself and yet condemn himself for his actions. Now that I've reached this position all I have to say is why...

why didn't I think of saving something up for myself. Just emergency food or...NO, now is not the time for me to start thinking about my choices leading up to now, I, I need to get out of this area. Staying here will only endanger me.

Soon after slowing his thoughts down and sharpening his gaze he got up and started to leave the area with one last thought passing through his mind before he touched the street, I got to get through this.

**********************************************

Handsome boss dude whatever thoughts:

Wait a minute did I just promote my business to whats essentially a beggar. I can even see my bodyguards snickering, huddled up like little girls who just got the new season of gossip.

HEY STOP SNICKERING LIKE LITTLE TODDLERS OVER THERE AND GET MOVING.
