“It is a wise father that know his own child.” -Shakespeare
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest, if you must, but don’t you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,

Surgery...
My dear Friends, Family, Pledgers…
Thank you for your patience. I am usually very reserved concerning my personal life but I feel it a necessary moment to share with you. For years, I kept silent concerning certain health issues from which I have suffered because I felt they made me vulnerable. I have always hated appearing weak. However, I know it is when my body has been as its very...
“I had grown up. I had learned that being a woman was knowing when to stand firm and when to compromise. I had learned to laugh and weep; I had learned that I was weak as well as strong. I had learned to love. I was no longer a rigid, upright tree that would not flex and bow, even though the gale threatened to snap it in two; I was the willow that bends and shivers and sways, and yet remains...
“When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives means the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand.”

Meaning...

You build it out of your own past, out of your affections and loyalties, out of the experience of humankind as it is passed on to you, out of your own talent and understanding, out of the things you believe in, out of the values for which...

Me olvide de vivir
De tanto correr por la vida sin freno Me olvidé que la vida se vive un momento De tanto querer ser en todo el primero Me olvidé de vivir los detalles pequeños.
De tanto jugar con los sentimientos Viviendo de aplausos envueltos en sueños De tanto gritar mis canciones al viento Ya no soy como ayer, ya no se lo que siento
Me olvidé de vivir Me olvidé de vivir Me olvidé de vivir...

On Lolita
“He loved her more than anything, even his own life. Anything else is just… a distraction.”
“The things that used to tear me apart no longer get a second thought.”
“But now I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.”
