  3. I hope that - whoever you are - you escape this place. I hope that the world turns, and that things get better.

    But what I hope most of all is that you understand what I mean when I tell you that even though I do not know you, and even though I may not meet you, laugh with you, cry with you, or kiss you: I love you.

    With all my heart.

    I love you.

  5. If one would allow another influence over ones actions, one would fall from grace, lose the nobility of his stance, and be forgotten for his lack of resolve!
    There is no arrogance in truth, truth is just fact, now a lie, well that is the most arrogant thing there is, that person that lies to you believes they are better than you while hiding the fact that they are afraid of you.
    It is not that I am to smart for you, it is that you are to lazy to understand me.
    I am no warmonger, and as much as I tease, the truth is that some battles are not fought on the field, those that are fought in the mind and soul, those are the battles that are most terrible, we fight greed and envy, and we forget true character, wracked with our own insecurities, some of us, so few, we find that we can and will be better people.
    I do not like being a rat in a maze....I will not be a puppet or tool for anyone, I will never invest in what will not benefit me, or those that do not love me.

  8. "The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own. No apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on, or blame. The gift is yours. It is an amazing journey, and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins."
