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.
