Welcome to ...

The place where the world comes together in honesty and mirth.
Windmills Tilted, Scared Cows Butchered, Lies Skewered on the Lance of Reality ... or something to that effect.

Damn Fine Words

"The only dream worth having is to dream that you will live while you are alive, and die when you are dead.
To love, to be loved.
To never forget your own insignificance.
To never get used to the unspeakable violence and vulgar disparity around you.
To seek joy in the saddest places.
To pursue beauty to it's lair.
To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple.
To respect strength, never power.
Above all, to watch.
To try and understand.
To never look away.
And, never, never forget."
~ Arundhati Roy

Damn those are some fine words!
And from such a young person!
Just wished I'd said them first.
