Whispers in the Shadows

M.A.D. Works

Shadows softly creep, 

Whispers of deceit linger, 

Secrets in the dark. 

Yearning to break free right now.

To wreck havoc among us

The Embrace of Time

M.A.D. Works

Time’s fleeting embrace,
In the dance of days and years,
Memories count down.
Time slipping through our fingers
We must embrace the present.

The Digital Shift

How has technology changed your job?
View all responses

Technology has essentially taken over my job. In the beginning, when I first started working, everything was done with physical books and printed materials. However, now everything is digital, whether on an iPad or a computer. We have become very reliant on the internet, and there are times when the system goes down, forcing us to revert back to using paper-based information.

The Nimble Bat

M.A.D. Works

There once was a bat named Sara, 

Who worried her size like a para. 

She practiced each night, 

In the moon’s silver light, 

Now she’s nimble and light as a feather!

Maggie’s Skyward Quest

M.A.D. Works

Maggie was set on a quest, 

To soar high, she would give it her best. 

With hard work in her stride, 

She dreamt of the sky wide, 

Aiming to be the first and the best!

How often do you say “no” to things that would interfere with your goals?
View all responses

I don’t say no to things that get in the way of my goals as much as I should, but I’m trying to change that. It can be hard to focus on what I want, especially when new chances come up that look tempting. I’m learning to think carefully about what matches my goals and to be clear about my limits. It’s a work in progress, but I’m dedicated to getting better at making choices so I can stay on track and reach what I want to achieve.

I often think it would be amazing to have the ability to speak every language fluently. Imagine being able to connect with people from all over the world effortlessly, understanding their cultures and perspectives. It would open up so many opportunities for travel, friendships, and learning.
