People talk about how great love is, but that's bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they're afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they're wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It's all in how you carry it. That's what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you're letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain.” -Jim Morrison<br /><br />I am glad those unlikely scraps survived. We aren't supposed to sweat the small stuff, but I think a little sweating can do us all some good. A city is defined just as much by its periphery as what is within its limits. If you've ever had one of those life flashing before your eyes kind of moments then you know in the end all those seemingly lackluster snapshots are what endure.Crystal the Pistolhttp://www.myspace.com/crystalpicklepienoreply@blogger.com
