My NemesisShow poetry

My Name:
Nemesis: Means "retribution, righteous anger" in Greek. Nemesis was the Greek goddess of vengeance and justice. I used to be Martach Shine, but I like this name, and have decided to keep it.


Your Hidden Talent.
Your natural talent is interpersonal relations and dealing with people.
You communicate well and are able to bring disparate groups together.
Your calming presence helps everything go more smoothly.
People crave your praise and complements.

What's Your Hidden Talent?

I write to keep myself sane, or as sane as I am able to. My writing is not mind blowing, nor will it knock your socks off. I know I am not that good, but I like writing and I do it to relax. I have fun with it sometimes. It is personal and it took me a long time to get to where I would write and show it to someone else. In hind sight, I lost a lot of my writing because once I had finished it, I tore it up. But, that is life. We change, we grow, we learn. As long as we are doing all those things, we are living. It is the day we stop doing those things, we start to die. I hope to be living until I take my last breath.


This is my simple religion.
There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy.
Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.
Dalai Lama, 1935 - -now.
