Stolen Line :"We don't need to say a thing." -Michael C. Davis


The Hammock

In the back yard hangs relaxation in physical form.
stressful days,long nights, hours of school
the hammock brings rest.
I lay with nature,
loud but soft at the same time;
the hum of the bees, the sway of the trees
My friends and I lay together,
but alone in our own worlds.
We know eachothers thoughts;
we don't need to say a thing.
Relaxtation brings peace, brings contempt.
If only the hammock could find more time in my days.

Along with many other issues of this time period, the Thirty Years War was caused by a multitude of different thing, but nostly by the religious conflicts of the time and the economic failure. Religion had not only become an isse between othernations, but it had become a civil issus where people were battling their own government and their claim of power over their religious opinions. The Thirty Years War was destined to come eventually considering all of the internal conflict going on in Europe, but the Reformation sparked new ideas of religion and expressing new opinions publicly. Therefore this opened new doors to freedom that the government did not want to acknowledge. The efffects of the Thiryt Years War were like many other wars, economic depression, lack in trade, failure in ecomonmy in general, and price issues. Prices were being raised and less people were becoming wealthy. Like many wars before and after it, the Thirty Years War caused the economy to become extrememy slow and the culture therefore suffered. The effects of this war were extremely evident all over Europe for many years.
