In my years I found out that your closest most beloved friends are more apt to hurt you for they have your total trust. A stranger could never get close enough to your heart to hurt you bad only those close can ever touch you there. When you're generous and compassionate and try your best to be a true friend the more a target you become. As the years start to add up you will find that you can pretty much count all your friends on the fingers of one hand. (Double Etheree) 10/1/2015

longest time friend. You've just exhibited to the highest quality exactly what I have missed in here for months. Your lines are so exciting and your words are each having that second hand of drawing me back to them again and again and again irrespective of how many times I have gone through them. Its nice to be home and you are part of the reason I have this refreshing feeling. A definite 7. Cheers!
