cows without nipples
Imagine telling the good people in your life that you love them. Friends, co-workers, anyone who puts a little goodness into life. And use the word, too! Love. I love you. Do it a lot. Imagine this catching on.

No one has ever become poor by giving.
Anne Frank
an operation late at nightÂ
we could train a surgeon to slice away a man's soul
to see what is left there  if he still lives  or not
as a man  a human being  his dogs without feetÂ
his table empty  his cows without nipples Â
night without day and day without nightÂ
the operation is over  someone else can keep watchÂ
the surgeon returns to his day clothesÂ
when he exits the building a light rain has just begunÂ

Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.
Arthur Ashe
and here I am
I am here to tell the truthÂ
no matter how beautiful the lie might beÂ
or how ugly the truthÂ
do you have a question for meÂ
friend  before you ask  make damn sure
that you want to hear the answerÂ

We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.Â
Kurt Vonnegut
fifteen rounds  heavyweightÂ
yes  there are those hard daysÂ
when just living is too muchÂ
like fathers dayÂ
when your son is deadÂ
like mothers dayÂ
and your wife keeps weepingÂ
dawn againÂ
did you sleep at allÂ
already life is charging outÂ
from his corner  hard  gloves upÂ
ready to pound you againÂ
the crowd roarsÂ
oh sonÂ
how did it come to thisÂ

I don't want to die without any scars.
Chuck Palahniuk
The magpie grows quiet, then night swims in over all this world, ebony, shimmering, soft.

When your heart is ready, peace will come looking for you.Â

Sometimes I look up at the clock and what I thought was hours passing was only minutes, and other times it seems like I blinked my eyes and a month has gone by.
