Zeke❤️ Everyone wishes they could be a kid again. Zeke McPherson is a 16 year old kid living in fear of his once loving father. Zeke was always a quiet kid but his father's violence has made him almost silent and nobody even notices. Art and music are the only things that keep him going so when his best friend Ronan suggests that his other best friend Josh and the two of them start a band, he's delighted. He even manages to make a new friend named Caolan who joins the band too. As the band grows so does Zeke's confidence but his father's rage is getting worse...
Zeke McPherson Hi I’m the drummer of Careless Reaction and maybe you haven’t noticed me but that’s ok I don’t like attention all that much.😊 I’m the quiet one in the band well actually most people seem quiet compared to my friends so maybe that’s not right. I’m quiet in general. It annoys people and I just don’t get it? What’s the problem? Would you rather I shouted in your face all day? Teachers especially have a hard time dealing with it. I’m not a trouble maker even though I look like it and I do my work pretty well so what the heck is the problem? Teachers think I’m pretty thick cos I’m quiet but when they get my exam results they think differently or think I cheated, seriously! I’m really good at music and art and I’m pretty good at everything else except sports. My Mum is really proud and she thinks the band will be good for me and give me some more confidence. My Dad however hates the whole idea of the band and he just wants me to be a jock. Before I’d be scared but I have gained confidence, I even asked a girl out! I’m still quiet though and before I didn’t like it but these days I like it, that’s who I am and everyone else can just deal with that. My best feature would be my skin. Pretty lame but it’s really clear these days while everyone else is all spotty. I actually have a tan too which looks good unlike the rest of me!

When I say that I don't want to exist right now, that doesn't mean i want to die. Not to me it doesn't. All it means is I want to disconnect from myself. To not feel my own emotions, to not hear my brain rile on and on, to not feel my skin on my body, to not feel, to not hear, to not taste, to not smell, to not see but still observe. I don't want to be interacted with like a person when I wish to not exist. I wish to a narrator, a viewer, a camera-man. I wish that I could fast forward to when this was a memory. I know it may seem concerning, or maybe a bit outlandish, but it makes sense to me. I want to not be there but still be there. I want to not be acknowledged by anyone and to simply watch. Watch others experience what's happening. And I want to not experience it. I don't want it. I just want to sit in the corner and watch. But when someone's in the corner watching, someone has to whisper. Has to ask questions. Has to make me exist. I don't want that. I don't want to exist, but I don't want to die either. It does make sense to me, but not everyone is me. I don't mind that either. But I want to be able to say that I am not existing and for people to understand. For them to not be concerned about the kid in the corner. About the guy sitting in silence. About your suspiciously quiet friend. I am simply not for now, and I hope you can accept that.
Stillness has a way of pulling everything to the surface. The dreams you have tucked away, the fears you don’t speak out loud, the memories that still echo, and the questions that still don’t have answers. It’s when your guard is down and the world is quiet that your soul speaks the loudest. Even in the weight of it all the wisdom is still unfolding, the thoughts and feelings are not here to torment you, there here to show you the truth of your heart, what needs your love, your attention, your healing. Allow the quiet to soften what the distractions may sharpen. Allow your soul to feel heard so that you can understand the map of your heart and move in the direction of what’s purposeful and true.
The whole house is asleep in peace and quiet
Do you know that? When you wake up at night and can’t fall asleep again and then sit quietly in your living room or kitchen and watch the quiet of the night. How peacefully the furniture and appliances in the room sleep and you only hear the ticking of the clock, the bubbling from the aquarium, the purring of your cat or the whistling and snowing of the wind and snow from outside. It's so peaceful and calm. I couldn't sleep recently because of the full moon, so I sat in the kitchen with my cat on my lap and watched and listened to the peacefulness of the night. It was just so relaxing listening to the quiet of the night and doing nothing. My cat purred on my lap and I gently stroked his back. At the side of my cat, I am never afraid and I feel very secure. Even in the darkest night♥

I miss being alone in my room surrounded by books. I miss the quiet and natural sounds of the forest. 🌲🌲🌲 I've been quite inactive on tumbler the last few months (sorry about that), because i'm in the military in The Kings Guard, stationed in the capital💂💂. The biggest problem for an introvert in the military is without doubt being surrounded by so many peoole all the time, having no personal space and the constant sensory input/overload😩 But then again, it is just another challenge to overcome. I'm hoping to become more active while i'm still in the military.
I drew this silly sketch last spring, and it's been hanging on our refrigerator for months. Don't be jealous Kaz & Ocelot. Snake needs petting just as much as you do!
Black and wide
The silence fills infinity
Calm and quiet
I float in deep tranquility
