I am here for Friends

About Me

"Everytime you meet someone think: ' This person is not perfect, is not just how they want to be, this person will never complete all his or her projects. This person is not loved by friends and family as much as he or she would like. This person regrets. Misses. This person will, sometime soon, be dead. Perhaps in the next half hour. Perhaps in thirty years. Who knows?'"Scepticism Inc. - Bo Fowler
