Favorite Quote:
It takes courage to release from the familiar and secure, to embrace the new. There is no security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in adventure, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power.

I am done trying, my brain feels like rust
Rumors out of hand, hatred is flying
All I hear are lies, not a soul to trust
I am done trying

Drama must end, I'm sick of the crying
No one has virtue, so caught up in lust
Secrets are not safe, everyone's spying

To straighten out the truth now is a must
But there's too much anger and denying
It is just too hard to brush off the dust
I am done trying

It wasn't said by me, but my favorite quote is: "Critics are like eunuchs in a harem; they know how it's done, they've seen it done every day, but they're unable to do it themselves." - Brendan Francis
