To the gentle Vaseline children in the woods, I commend to you the moon’s dreams. We rock ourselves to sleep on an ocean of loneliness like half-dried socks in the dryer....

Time grabs you by the wrist directs you where to go. So make the best of this test and don&#039;t ask why. It&#039;s not a question but a lesson learned in time.

"There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,<br /> There is a rapture on the lonely shore,<br /> There is society, where none intrudes,<br /> By the deep Sea, and music in its roar:<br /> I love not Man the less, but Nature more." <br /> -Lord Byron
