I felt... like one in a dream... The remembrance of that life is fraught with so much... want of hope... Whether it lasted for a year, or more, or less, I do not know. I only know that it was, and ceased to be; and... there I leave it." ~Charles Dickens ************************************************************ ** If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you; that is the principal difference between a dog and a man. -Mark Twain ************************************************************ ** "there are those who are very resourceful at being remourseful and who apparently feel that the best way to make friends is to do something terrible and then make amends" ~ogden nash ************************************************************ ** i would just like to meet real people who can be true friends or at least nice aquaintances:)
