&ldquo;And once the storm is over, you won&rsquo;t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won&rsquo;t even be sure, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won&rsquo;t be the same person who walked in. That&rsquo;s what this storm&rsquo;s all about.&rdquo; <br /> ― Haruki Murakami

&quot;Soon madness has worn you down. It&rsquo;s easier to do what it says than argue. In this way, it takes over your mind. You no longer know where it ends and you begin. You believe anything it says. You do what it tells you, no matter how extreme or absurd. If it says you&rsquo;re worthless, you agree. You plead for it to stop. You promise to behave. You are on your knees before it, and it laughs.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marya Hornbacher

if you are curious. I can also write a poem about most anything, so if you have a topic you want written about, just ask. :) (I hate the 250 characters thing!) <br /> <br /> I&#039;ve been jumping from the tops of buildings...

Life&#039;s too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. So love the people who treat you right, forget about the ones who don&#039;t. If you get a chance take it. If it changes your life let it. Nobody said it would be easy but its worth it.

We&#039;re born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we&#039;re not alone.&rdquo;<br /> ~Orson Welles
