"The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry."
~ Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell To Arms

"Our lives disconnect and reconnect, we move on, and later we may touch one another, again bounce away. This is the felt shape of a human life, neither simply linear nor wholly disjunctive nor endlessly bifurcating, but rather this bouncey sequence of bumping into's and tumblings apart."

Remembering MLK...
"Hatred paralyzes life; love releases it. Hatred confuses life; love harmonizes it. Hatred darkens life; love illuminates it."
-Martin Luther King, Jr.

MLK
Sleep, sleep tonight And may your dreams be realised.
If the thunder cloud passes rain So let it rain, rain down on he.
So let it be. So let it be.
Sleep, sleep tonight And may your dreams be realised.
If the thunder cloud passes rain
So let it rain, let it rain
Rain down on he.
-Bono
