A Growing Collection of Scars

I am here for Friends

About Me


"We are here to laugh at the odds and to live
our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us."
"Monsters are real. Ghosts are too. They live inside us. And sometimes, they win." ~Stephen King

******************************************************

"Bring on the night, ring out the hour; the days wear on, but I endure."

******************************************************

"The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion which stands at the cradle of true art and true science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: His eyes are closed." Albert Einstein

******************************************************

"Blessed are those who hearts can bend, for they will never break." Albert Camus

******************************************************

"Don't give up, it's just the weight of the world." Josh Groban

My Interests

I'd like to meet:



"With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy." ~Desiderata

******************************************************

"The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation." Henry David Thoreau

******************************************************

"Only through destroying myself can I discover the greater power of my spirit." Chuck Palahniuk

******************************************************

"Language was just our way to explain away the wonder and the glory of the world. To deconstruct. To dismiss. She said people can't deal with how beautiful the world really is. How it can't be explained or understood." Chuck Palahniuk
