Fireflies light up my dark little room Linger here, let my love bloom Love is like fireflies, stays for a while Warming my heart 'till the end of this trial

one is all and all is one<br /> <br /> A life in fear is not life at all<br /> <br /> We only laugh when we get the money and we only cry when bankrupt:This qoute is for some<br /> <br /> Life is just a dream one big twisted dream<br /> <br /> <br /> The Less you care the less you have to loss<br /> <br /> If I die I die cool<br /> <br /> I think: therefore I am<br /> Better to be weird, then clich&eacute;

&quot;I am astonished always at the stupidity of humanity but I shouldn&#039;t be, it&#039;s always with us. Which, after all, keeps giving me more and more to write about.&quot; Charles Bukowski

Favorite Quote:
&ldquo;Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. You playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won&rsquo;t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It&rsquo;s not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others&rdquo;.
