When we we're kids we had so many dreams of who we we're going to be and what we we're going to accomplish.There was no limit,no thought to how much college tuition was or if that job would pay enough to support a family.It was just us and our dream.When I was a child I wanted to be a writer. I would keep several journals and frequently write stories and poems every day.Every once in a while I'll come across one of those journals and as I skim the pages of somewhat illegible words I find myself  disappointed.What happened to my passion?

I still write poems regardless of their potential,but my dream has become something like my handwriting so many years ago. Illegible to the point I barely recognize it myself.I continue to write t because it is the only way I know to show the separation from who I am and who everyone else is.Art leaves the heart anxious and eager.No one person is the same,but in this world we are often grouped as otherwise. We are always put into some impression,some pre-made mold that our souls never fit into.Writing is my way to escape that so why have embraced giving up so easily?

I've noticed over the past couple of months people seem to think the 'unicorn' in the Bible was literally just that.To be honest I've met fellow Christians who seem to take the 'unicorn' literally.I was confused by this myself at first,but knew it couldn't literally mean the unicorn as we know it today so I did some research.

The earliest description of the Unicorn was given by the historian Ctesias in 400 B.C who traveled to Persia and India. who described the 'indian wild ass' with a body the size of a horse,white,purple head,blue eyes and cubit long horn on it's head.The people then believed that if you drank from the horn that you would be protected from stomach problems,epilepsy and poison.Aristotle loved the unicorn myth and was partly responsible for it becoming so popular in Greco-Roman.Later on a historian named Megasthenes mentioned another unicorn that resembled the Rhino.There are 5 kinds of white and black Rhinos and they have two horns except the Indian and Java rhino.The white Rhino is larger than all the other species of rhinos because it weighs 4,000 to 6,000 and has  the height of 5 to 6 feet,however these white rhinos have a brownish tint to them.More than likely what he saw was the white Indian rhino.However Ctesias's description seems to be based off a mixture of the rhino,antelope and wild ass and was based off traveler's tales.

Passages in the old testament in Hebrew described a beast called Re'em which was described as strong and fast.This beast can be found nine times in the bible.However Re'em was translated to Unicorn in the King james Version.Re'em is translated over to wild ox in most modern versions of the bible today.In Deuteronomy 33:17 it implies that Re'em didn't have just one horn.

If you want to discover more just google it or there are plenty of books on it.You can find information on it if you're willing to look around and do the research.
