Is everybody happy?

I would really just like to be happy being me.
I've forgotten what that feels like and I'm afraid it might be a lost cause.
I don't know how to get there but I'm trying.

Death on the Line

Catching for trophy is more messed up than catch and release, I suppose.
But "sport" isn't being slowly reeled in to your potential death by a hook through your mouth, while you fight with all your might to avoid your demise.
So really, they're both infinitely more  messed up than catch and eat, which is what catching was ever really supposed to be about.
(My stream of thought in the shower just now.)

Hellp

The best help is always the help you don't have to ask for, from people that know you well enough to identify how they might strengthen what they already know to be your weaknesses. 
It's both extraordinarily humbling and uplifting at the same time.

You Can Do It

People who work in food preserves do what they can and can what they do.

Single Stroke Role

Paradiddle!?
Heck, I'd settle for a single diddle.

Mirror Man

I never feel the alone that I do until I'm finally alone with you.

Hot Mess

You can't generate light without at least some heat, but you can generate a great deal of heat without producing any light at all.

When You Got Nothin'

With nothing to lose and nothing to gain, and failure the certain outcome of any given course of action, you have more freedom of choice than you could ever know.

Scoopy Scoopy Doo

Not one of three
Have called to see
The status of me
Or my family

Bullet the Blue Sky

Some decisions in life are about like choosing which bullet you would like to have shot though your skull and who you would like to pull the trigger.

Between the Black and White

Where there is light, there are shadows.
Where there is darkness there is only darkness.

Hollowed Be My Name

To feel needed but not wanted
To feel loved but not liked
To feel desire but not desired
These are hollow victories

What is the half life of hope?

It might be time to stop looking for what might be found, in places it seems it will probably never be found.

What Song?

Desperation makes sense of the senseless.

Black and White

Your story has been written.
You can finish it, or put the book down.
Put it down now and you'll never know if you were the villian or the hero...or both.

Living In A Gangster's Paradise

It is not the day to day decsions that we make, but in those we make under fire, when time is short, that reveal our truest selves.

That is when we reveal our most private and raw thought processes engrained in us by our own indulgences, based in our own biases and convictions.

Anyone can make a good decision when they have time to consider consequences.

Though many of us choose otherwise.

In times of ease and prosperity we forget who and what we actually are.

That is when it is easiest to convince ourselves that we are the masters of our own destiny and not subject to our Creator.

It eases our conscience to think that we, as well as those around us, do not, and will not suffer to the consequences of our wrong doings.

But we can live in a fool's paradise for only a short season.

Solo Cristo Salva
d(-_-)b

What I lack in good looks and charm I make up for with incompentency and bad fashion sense.

No Apologies Required

Contrary to the old saying "Love means never having to SAY I'm sorry." I think more accurately stated "Love means never having to HEAR I'm sorry".

Not that it shouldn't be said...
because it should.

Ebb and Flow

My head is filled with noise and snow, and a stream of thoughts I can't let go.

There's constant ringing in my ears, and still voices are become clearer.

I feel the blood pulsing in my body, head to toe, but there are a million thoughts and feelings I'm sure I'll never know.
