"Bitterness is the poison we drink in hopes that someone else will die."
I feel sorry for the poor bastard who runs into a hyper me.
Hate spawns from love. Without love there is no hate, but even without hate, love will still exist.
"Sometimes on the way to where you are going, you might think 'this is the worst time of my life' but you know what? At the end of the road, through all of the adversity, if you can get where you wanted to be? Remember that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger."
In the end, we run so that we can fight another day, and we fight to run away.
If to resist is to die. Then I will die for my right to resist. All can resist if they wish. It is the right of all. It is a choice that all posses. So I will resist. If I am alone, I shall fall, but even then I will not fall alone.
Many people have claimed that a dream was a futile effort. They said that touching the moon was futile, and yet we continued to reach for that moon and dream upon the dust of the stars.
You said you would do anything for me. Is that still true? Would you die for me? Will you kill yourself if I asked? Alright then, I want you to die for me right now. I want you to kill yourself. I never want to see your face again, I don't want you to be a part of my life any more. You pretended you cared, you were just playing with my feelings, but it doesn't matter anymore. Drop dead. Good night.
Nothing's unfair; it's just the way you look at it.
Do unto others, as they do to you.
“He who battles alone... Dies alone.”
No matter whom you are, no matter what you look like.
You are always more than meets the eye.

There’re all the damn paths in the world if you just make your own.SpoilerHer hair was up in a ponytail
Her favorite dress tied with a bow
Today was Daddy's Day at school
And she couldn't wait to go.
But her mommy tried to tell her,
That she probably should stay home.
Why the kids might not understand,
If she went to school alone.
But she was not afraid;
She knew just what to say.
What to tell her classmates
Of why he wasn't there today.
But still her mother worried,
For her to face this day alone.
And that was why once again,
She tried to keep her daughter home.
But the little girl went to school,
Eager to tell them all.
About a dad she never sees,
A dad who never calls.
There were daddies along the wall in back,
For everyone to meet
Children squirming impatently,
Anxious in their seats.
One by one the teacher called,
Each student from the class.
To introduce their daddy,
As seconds slowly passed.
At last the teacher called her name,
Every child turned to stare.
Each of them was searching,
For a man who wasn't there.
"Where's her daddy at?"
She heard a boy call out.
"She probably doesn't have one"
Another student dared to shout.
And from somewhere near the back,
She heard a daddy say,
"Looks like another deadbeat dad,
Too busy to waste his day."
The words did not offend her,
As she smiled up at her mom.
And looked back at her teacher,
Who told her to go on.
And with hands behind her back,
Slowly she began to speak.
And out from the mouth of a child,
Came words incredibly unique.
"My daddy couldn't be here,
Because he lives so far away.
But I know he wishes he could be,
Since this is such a special day.
And though you cannot meet him,
I wanted you to know.
All about my daddy,
And how much he loves me so.
He loved to tell me stories
He taught me to ride my bike.
He surprised me with pink roses,
And taught me to fly a kite.
We used to share fudge sundaes,
and ice cream in a cone.
And though you cannot see him,
I'm not standing here alone.
Cause my daddy's always with me
Even though we are apart.
I know because he told me,
He'll forever be in my heart."
With that, her little hand reached up,
and lay across her chest.
Feeling her own heartbeat,
Beneath her favorite dress.
And from somewhere in the crowd of dads,
Her mother stood in tears.
Proudly watching her daughter,
Who was wise beyond her years.
For she stood up for the love
Of a man not in her life.
Doing what was best for her,
Doing what was right.
And when she dropped her hand back down,
Staring straight into the crowd.
She finished with a voice so soft,
But its message clear and loud.
"I love my daddy very much,
He's my shining star.
And if he could he'd be here,
But heaven's just too far.
You see he was a fireman
And died just this past year.
When airplanes hit the towers
And taught Americans to fear.
But sometimes when I close my eyes,
It's like he never went away."
And then she closes her eyes,
And saw him there that day.
And to her mother's amazement,
She witnessed with surprise.
A room full of daddies and children,
All starting to close their eyes.
Who knows what they say before them,
Who knows what they felt inside.
Perhaps for merely a second,
They saw him at her side.
"I know you're with me Daddy."
To the silence she called out.
And what happened next made believers,
Of those once filled with doubt.
Not one in that room could explain it,
For each of their eyes had been closed.
But there on the desk beside her,
Was a fragrant long-stemmed pink rose.
And a child was blessed, if only for a moment,
By the love of her shining bright star.
And given the gift of believing,
That heaven is never too far.

They say that those who battle alone die alone. If that is so, that is the path I choose. I have heard of animals that drag themselves into a place where they can be alone to die. If that is true, I choose to die like those animals.It is easier.It is easier to go when there are none to stay behind for or fight for. It is easier to fall when there is no one to watch you fall. It is easier to go if there are no loved ones to leave behind. It is easier to leave without saying goodbye. Deep down inside, I believe I realize it is easier to live alone then die alone than to love then say the final farewell.
