--&gt;&quot;Nothing makes us so lonely as our secrets.&quot; - Paul Tournier <br /> <br /> --&gt;&quot;I&#039;d rather be hated for who I am than loved for who I&#039;m not.&quot; - Kurt Cobain <br /> <br /> --&gt;&quot;We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves strong. The amount of work is the same.&quot; -Carlos Casteneda

You can't move in this motion
Without the use of devotion
The skill is not nil
But the magical pill
Of life as it comes
And it numbs
The pain that the world
Has hurled
Into a ball
For all humanity to swallow
