*(ending to Faith) I told myself that, if I avoided him at all costs, I&#039;d be okay; so I did, and I was, and he never game back.<br /> * More than we rely on other people, we rely on other peoples ignorance.<br /> *Just a little thank you, to all the morons that led me to learning to write well; you are the razors of the pen that draws the blood I write with. I owe it all to your mistakes.

So, as I attempt to sift through the jaded and bitter sand that falls through the hourglass of time that is my life, I notice that I don't even know where to begin. I've relished silence and darkness for so long that, when exposed to the light of truth, I'm totally lost. I'm holding all of my beliefs to judgment, testing all of my ways to a rubric of change. I am abandoning abandonment and embracing life as it is, exhausting, ruthless, and maybe, just maybe, worth it.
