Favorite Quote:
&ldquo;The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry.&rdquo;<br /> <br /> <br /> ― Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell to Arms

Friendships are like circles
No definitive beginning
No clear end
As long as memory persists
They don’t truly end.
No one can ever tell how they begin
They simply start

In the pure enduring friendships
Neither party can remember how they started
They go from zero to 60 in minutes
By minutes I mean weeks
By minutes I mean days
All of the sudden they are
whirlwinds

As with all things
Glamour fades
Not all that glitters is gold
People start to fade away
The same way that posters break away
from their adhesive

 

Silly Girl
All this is in your head
The glamour has left
But what glitters can be silver.
