| One-Fourteen"You're a good kid. I think you have alot to say.
I'd like to hear it."
-Mr. Freeman
The greatest and most important problems in life are all in a certain sense insoluble. They can never be solved, only outgrown.
  
Art without emotion is like chocolate cake without sugar. It makes you
gag. Next time you work on your trees, don't think about trees. Think
about love, or hate, or joy, or rage - whatever makes you feel
something, makes your palms sweat or your toes curl. Focus on that
feeling. When people don't express themselves, they die one piece at a
time.
Mothers of teenagers know why animals eat thier young.
  
I can't do everything for you. You must walk alone to find your soul.
I hate admitting but here it goes: I would do everything within my
power to have you here but I am too timid. I do not regret kissing that
boy. I do regret kissing that boy.Getting
drunk was fun as hell. I am leading my ex into empty promises. I need
God. So bad. I only have one best friend. You weren't a drunk thing but
I will never tell you that. I have five boys here for me. Five. But you
know what? If I had all the boys in this city, I still wouldn't be
satisfied. None of them could compare with you.
  
She has a bigger and better heart than any girl you've ever known. You
wanna know how you can tell? Because she's had a front row seat to "The
Mess That Is Your Life" and she still sticks around and she still
genuinely likes you. She sees something worthwhile and redeeming in
you. Something that makes her hang on. Although you've given her
nothing, absolutely no reason to say, she's still there. But she won't
always be. So hold her close while you can.
If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't
ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward, you're always
in the same place.
  
Some love stories aren't epic novels, some are short stories,
but that doesn't make them any less filled with love.
Only people who will risk going too far
can possibly know how far they can go.
  
"It's not true that I had nothing on. I had the radio on."
-Marilyn Monroe

| One Hundred ThirteenSome are mine, some aren't. It doesn't matter what you say about
someone once they're gone. What matters
is how you treat them when they're still here.
I trick myself saying that it's gunna be different that time.
But it never is. It's just different shades of the same.
   As they run, they touch shoulders, but thier arms are free.
They look contemptously into the lens, but they are happy.
They are two people entering the long run, with a wedding ring and a dream. And they'll think it's just because we're young.
  
I smile, and the craziness of it makes my skin flush red,
but he does not stop at my sweater. As I close my eyes,
I feel him touch my neck, then my cheek, and the he kisses me on the lips.
Your silence will not protect you.
  
"She's so damn beautiful," is what he says over and over.
So what are you drink, so what are you popping, so what are you eating, so what are you dropping, so what are you smoking, so what are you sniffing, so how are you coping?
   "Why is everyone here so crude?" I ask him.
"This is a hospital for the truly insace," he says.
"It ain't no Palos Verdes garden party."
We need to have things taken away before we recognize how good things are.
-Mr. Rosenthal
   Compassion is a choice. Some people naturally choose to be kind, and they choose to care. But for those of us who struggle, it's a choice everyday, whether to have compassion or to judge. It is the choice between friendship and bitterness. | | |
| One Hundred TwelveMine. Credit isn't necessary.
 
I'm feeling things are about to change.
I'm guessing this is growing up.
Sometimes we'll be piled on the
couch wearing sweats,
eating the kind of ice cream we like, watching our favorite
TV show, talking in the shorthand way we talk that nobody
understands, and I'll realize that this every day,
simple, no-big-deal moment; this is my happiness.
 
And it breaks me just to know
that I've torn her apart so many times.
My uncle used to say that we like people
for thier qualities but we love them for thier defects.
-Hellboy
 
Wherever life takes you, big cities or small towns,
you will invetiably come across small minds.
I should've known we'd never get anywhere,
can't
fall in love when you're falling apart,
can't make amends if you're
only making mistakes,
and empty words can't fix a broken heart.
 
Why did people say there were "falling in love?"
Why didn't they step
into love, or slide into it like
baseball player heading for home?
Was
it the thrill, like jumping off a high dive,
or the fear of not knowing
how they might land?
 
Feed your faith and your fears will starve to death.
And everytime you feel like crying I'm gunna try to make you laugh. And
if I can't, if it just hurts too bad, then we will wait for it to pass
and I will keep you company through those days so long and black.
 
Return to the person that you were and I will do the same.
Because it's too hard to belong to someone who is gone.
