We assume that other people sense that we struggle valiantly in our blackened landscape. We presume that other people comprehend our struggle to glean meaning amongst the ashes spewed from the absurd circumstances that we operate. Sometimes we need to stop and tell the tenderhearted persons whom we care about that we love them and explain that our awkward strangeness is not a rejection of them. Kilroy J. Oldster

I like to remind people to take the power to live their life the way they wish. Nuno Roque

Authentic expression of who you really are, how you really feel, without projecting the labels of right or wrong. Alaric Hutchinson
