lwvanels (Lucien Van Elsen):
We reach out a hand,
and it is slapped
We reach out a heart,
and it is broken
We reach out our soul,
and it is stepped on
With each happening
we grow colder,
darker
more frightened
No longer do we see the joy
in a leaf falling
in a cloud
in the boats passing by
The child dies.....
or so we think...
So we no longer reach out a hand
reach out a heart
reach out a soul
and the child weeps silently
Then a hand touches ours
a heart mends ours
a soul brushed ours clean
the child laughs...

mar (Mark A. Rosenstein):
The principles for living which the household Rivendell has adopted:
1) If you can't stand solitude, perhaps you bore others too. (taken
from Mark Twain)
2) If you can't laugh at yourself, someone else is going to do it for
you, and you're not going to enjoy it nearly as much.
3) A mindfuck is a terrible thing to waste.
4) Nothing exceeds like excess.
5) Dessert is the most important meal of the day.
